error from Boost

[angjelo]

After I type any bitcoind command i get this error:
Assertion failed: (pthread_mutex_lock(&m_) == 0), function lock, file /usr/local/include/boost/signals2/detail/lwm_pthreads.hpp, line 60.
Abort trap: 6

Any suggestions?
Thanks

What's your version of boost? What OS? Which binaries?

[angjelo]

i am using the last version and I am using osx yosemite 10.10.5... what are binaries ?

[parazyd]

Well, your bitcoin binaries. Where did you get bitcoind from?
Did you compile it yourself?

[angjelo]

this is how i got it
git clone https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin.git
yeah I did ... I am following a book ...mastering bitcoin by andeas antonopoulos

Follow the guide for compiling on Mac OSX:
README_osx.txt
build-osx.md

You can also try the static binaries from: https://bitcoin.org/en/download
They should work with no issues.

Ok cool thank you... do you think that it would be easier if I use linux? Cause I can install it pretty quick in a virtual machine..

[parazyd]

It really depends on how you want to use it. Try it out yourself and see what you prefer.

[angjelo]

ok thanks mate !

@angjelo: did you had luck compiling bitcoin-core? It looks like that you are missing parts of the boost library.

I guess you need to install/upgrade (to) the newest version of homebrew (brew upgrade) and install all the dependencies (brew install autoconf automake berkeley-db4 libtool boost miniupnpc openssl pkg-config protobuf qt5 libevent); check this https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/build-osx.md.

Bitcoin-core compiles fine on osx 10.10, 10.11.
