Title: startup error - 0.5.0 release linux
Post by: bitmarley on January 20, 2015, 09:37:03 pm
I downloaded the 0.5.0 release from here:
https://github.com/BitShares/bitshares/releases

unpacked it and there is only 1 file: "bitshares_client"

when I run it I get the following which I don't understand:

Loading blockchain from: /home/user1/.BitShares/chain
Loading config from file: /home/user1/.BitShares/config.json
Not starting RPC server, use --server to enable the RPC interface
sendto: Operation not permitted
(wallet closed) >>>

??

What is the problem? I don't know what the sendto error is but is the console working? If you are looking for a GUI we currently don't provide a GUI release for Linux.

oh I thought that was the qt client. I have been pulling the qt client from github. When I saw the 0.5.0 release for linux I thought it included a qt client. So it seems the github qt source is still v0.4.27.2-1?

If there was a linux GUI build provided for 0.4.27.2, it must have been a special case. We are not yet providing official GUI builds for linux. For 0.5.0 you will have to build qt client yourself from source.
