I am just trying to start with namecoin and I want to do mining, so I installed namecoin-core via the AUR (Arch Linux User Repository), I'm running Linux Manjaro.
I followed the start guide and created a namecoin.conf file. However, I can't start namecoind.
When I type:
namecoind -printtoconsole -dbcache=400
I get the following:
I tried without the options -printtoconsole and -dbcache=400, getting the same error. There's no further information in the debug log file.2017-10-22 13:31:34 Namecoin version v0.13.0.0-g6e7eb2678
