Wallet version 0.5.2, Windows 64. Tried deleting the Ethereum folder in Appdata, tried 'reinstalling' the wallet, tried manually running Geth (doesn't go anywhere), nothing. Was running fine last night. Any ideas?

I have the same problem: When I try to open my Ethereum Wallet I receive this message and the wallet does not open.

Please state the operating system. Win 32 has no binary for example..

Operating system windows 10 64 bit - using the 64 bit windows wallet as well.

If I manually run Geth then boot up Mist Wallet it starts syncing for a while (deleted my old blockchain) but inevitably loses peers and stops syncing. It finds them again but no longer syncs. If I try to boot up Mist Wallet by itself I still get the no ethereum binary node found message. Got quite a few Ether I am unable to access.

Still have not found any solution to this issue and haven't been able to access my Ether...

Please try the latest version, it might be that you used the "eth" node and this was broken in the last release

Thanks for the response, it still is exactly the same (No ethereum node binary found) after installing the newest release.

could you goto the "resources/node/geth" folder and run the geth.exe?

I have the same problem on Ubuntu 14.04 / 32 bit. Using the latest (Wallet 0.7.2 (beta 16))

I've tried running geth beforehand but makes no difference.

Did you set the --ipcpath to ~/.ethereum/geth.ipc ?

@frozeman where do I do that?

Kindly check if version 0.7.4 still pulls this error.
We are currently working on several substantial improvements regarding the node communication (ipc, etc.) which we will pushed out soon.

same issue (screenshot) after downloading 0.7.4 and starting Ethereum-Wallet.exe. Environment:

  • Windows 10 64bit OR Windows 7 64bit
  • Ethereum-Wallet-win32-0-7-4

@nikolaygit The win32 binary of Ethereum-Wallet comes without bundled node as win32 is not officially supported by geth. Make sure to download the 64bit binary!

I have same problem (on Windows 7, 64 bit). Previous versions have worked fine. Should I reinstall geth for Homestead version?

@Jacck make sure you are using the latest version 0.7.4 win 64bit. This comes bundled with geth 1.4.5.
If you are using an external geth-node update that one too.

Same problem. Windows 7 64 bit and updated to 0.7.4 win 64bit.

@tjjc did you extract the zip? Could you confirm that geth.exe is located in recourses\nodes\geth\geth.exe?

I did and yes it is there. Here is the error I get trying to run geth.

Very tentative thought ... this MIGHT actually be a networking problem that's producing a misleading error message. I had this message (see earlier in thread) when actually I had a bad internet connection. But it seems to have fixed itself when my connection cleared up.

Whether this is related to the problems the rest of you are having I don't know.

Solved: i was getting a db error in dapp when i tried to run geth manually

  1. deleted dapp folder from C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\Ethereum
  2. manually started geth and it launched
  3. started and synced wallet
  4. can only start wallet if geth is started manually first

@tjjc Thank you. One more thing. I had to synchronize time on my computer (Windows 7) with Internet time (in time settings).
