Downloaded Ethereum-Wallet-win32-0-8-6.exe file, launched it, and window with "Scanning for client binaries..." and "Checking network..." staying forever.

I'm also having issues with go-ethereum under Debian GNU/Linux. Check it here: ethereum/go-ethereum#3146

I cannot even start to use Ethereum. :-(

@resurtm, how do you even start Ethereum wallet on Linux? I see that I've installed it (dpkg -l | grep ethereum) but wherever it installed is not in the path. I'm running on Ubuntu 14.04.

@resurtm please invoke Ethereum Wallet from the command line and post its output:

Ethereum Wallet.exe --loglevel debug

Also please upload your node.log file.

@doublehops the executable won't added to the PATH, but integrated in the desktop shell via /usr/share/applications/Ethereum Wallet.desktop.
The executable itself resides in /opt/Ethereum Wallet/.
To have it added to your terminal's PATH EV add this line to the corresponding profile:

export PATH=$PATH:/opt/Ethereum Wallet

@luclu Having the same issue on Windows 10 / 32 bit. Following the above steps result in:

  • running "Ethereum Wallet.exe" --loglevel debug hangs
    • feedback from CLI in attached text file geth_cli.txt
    • popup error while setting up environment for the application. choose 'close' to terminate the application

errorwhile

  • file node.log cannot be found...

@jobspierings I encountered the same issue on my win7 32bit VM. Seems like there is some incompatibility with its terminal.
Instead I created a shortcut to the Ethereum Wallet.exe and appended --loglevel debug --logfile <somePath> to acquire the logs.

Though the geth binary will not be downloaded for some reason - I will investigate this during the next days.

@luclu any progress or luck with this issue to be expected - otherwise I'll have to look for another way to access the wallet.

Sorry @jobspierings I had some problem with my primary workstation. I'm currently rebuilding it and won't be able to startup the VM until then.

Какой нужно скачивать и устанавливать кошелёк на win7-32bit-sp1 для успешного ввода/вывода ETH?

@qubit1729 wote:

Hi,
Obviously nobody is testing the software.
The reason of the crash is a 32bit exe running on a 64bit architecture.
Header of .exe shows 32bit compiled with Microsoft Visual C++ 8 which is pretty old...
regards, qubit1729

Ticket has been closed. What does that mean ?
Is there no running version for Windows 10 64 bit ?

Is this a 32bit issue ?
It looks like there is a connection problem:
connection error mist
Turned off Kaspersky antivir still crashes.
