Title: BTSX client closes/crashes W7/W8
Post by: pioneer on July 22, 2014, 12:56:08 pm
Sadly I can't give an error message because I don't get one.
But the client crashes both on Win7 64-bit and Windows 8 on my Asus Transformer.
On W7 it just closes before even getting to the client window, on W8 it gets to show the client window and then instantly crashes without an error message.

All lot of us get that. No fix and no one seems to know why.

We experienced a similar issue with Keyhotee so we have asked the Poland team look at the issue.  I believe it has to do with how it was built.

Will keep you all posted.

I installed version 0.2.3 on Windows 7... still crashes, but this time it gives a "BitsharesX has stopped working" message instead of just closing without anything popping up.

And the uninstaller works now, it didn't in 0.2.1.

Hi pioneer, can you try this. download the openssl dll from this link https://www.dropbox.com/s/wvudgptdcr0mqi5/openssl%20dll.rar (https://www.dropbox.com/s/wvudgptdcr0mqi5/openssl%20dll.rar),
and put libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll to the same dir with BitsharesX.exe, see if it works.

It still crashes at "Starting Bitshares X Client" on Windows 7. I don't know if I'm imagining it though, but it seemed to take longer this time.. it just sat there for a while before crashing instead of doing it instantly.

On Windows 8 there was no difference either.

Thanks, man. That worked like a charm. I installed the OpenSSL package and ran BTSX as Administrator and now it works. :)
