snap: bitcoind gets killed because it runs out of memory

Open matt-the-catt opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Hi!

I installed bicoind (version 26.0) via snap on a raspberrypi 4 running Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS (GNU/Linux 5.15.0-1047-raspi aarch64). It has 8GB of ram and 8TB external SSD.

It is going through initial block download and sometimes bitcoind crashes. Debug.log is of no interest - it just stops. I'll attach dmesg from the last time this happened. dmesg.txt

Another interesting thing is that I can't browse external SSD after this happens.

Any ideas on what is happening and how to solve this?

Thanks!

What are the config settings? Are any other programs running? Which external SSD are you using?

bicoin.conf has only one line pointing datadir to external SSD

It is also running: jackett jellyfin radarr sonarr qbittorrent-nox

But the 5 above have been running stable for months. Issue only started after installing bitcoind

SSD is Samsung SSD 870 QVO SATA 2.5
