Sometimes when syncing is very slow, I noticed that the log file indicates "Time out DAO fork check, dropping." How can I fix this issue?
Node type: geth/eth OS: osx 10.11.5 Network type: main Mist version: 0.8.1
Your wallet (the etheruem client geth) is not able to recover from a corrupted database as this error indicates:
Unhandled trie error: Missing trie node
Please remove the ~/Library/Ethereum/chaindata
folder - using the terminal. Use the following command:
rm -r ~/Library/Ethereum/chaindata
@luclu , can I simple delete the chaindata folder through my Finder, instead of using terminal?
I manually deleted the chaindata file and re-download the whole chain. It worked.
I believe that the corruption of my chaindata file was caused by my anti-virus software Avast on my iMac, because it sometimes quarantines one of the block data files, causing the corruption to the chain data.
Are there any other antivirus software which don't cause this problem?
Potential solution: I exclude the path ~/library/ethereum/chaindata on my antivirus software Avast.
This path is hidden. You need to press "Command" + "Shift" + G to see this hidden path when you try to exclude a folder in Avast.

I need to do this but my chaindata file is now in the geth folder should I still delete it? I am using the Ethereum Wallet Version 0.8.10 and I can't synch. The actual error from the log is:
INFO [06-15|20:05:06] Block synchronisation started ERROR[06-15|20:05:08] Unhandled trie error: Missing trie node 3a1e82bc8304455d5afd30f690208cfbf2b849764f125f7fd76fb5259423597d
I really wanted to fix this myself, but it been three days since I sent some Ether to jump on the ICO bandwagon, but I haven't had any confirmations because I can't synch.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

After installing new Mist version 0.8.1, my wallet syncing process sometimes would stop. I have to restart the wallet in order to continue the sync.
I have seen two different types of log files when my wallet stops syncing. Please see my attachments. One of the log files indicates "too many open files", while the other log file indicates calling files by "jeffrey" on Ethereum Github. I have also attached my "note.log" file, which I renamed it to a .txt file.
