Title: Failed to read block, and no, "-checklevel=2" doesn't help.. Post by: kerubi on September 11, 2013, 05:34:32 AM Updated to latest 0.8.4 client, get that "failed to read block error" no matter what. Tried going back 0.8.3,0.8.1 even.
Adding -checklevel=2 in the shortcut or bitcoin.conf doesn't help. My SSD HDD is working fine. So what gives? Title: Re: Failed to read block, and no, "-checklevel=2" doesn't help.. Post by: favdesu on September 11, 2013, 05:37:28 AM could you post a screenshot of you modified shortcut settings? I did it and it works just fine
edit: https://i.imgur.com/8P1rnRA.png does it look like this? Title: Re: Failed to read block, and no, "-checklevel=2" doesn't help.. Post by: Dare on September 11, 2013, 06:14:57 AM Isn't it supposed to be "--checklevel=2", with 2 dashes? I'm not sure if it matters though, and the config file doesn't need dashes, so that's probably not your problem (but is worth a try).
Also, the transaction causing that bug is now far enough down that it doesn't trigger the error anymore even without that command, though forcing a rescan might still do it.

Post by: kerubi on September 11, 2013, 05:46:10 PM Yes, my shortcut is exactly like that, tried both --checklevel=2 and -checklevel=2.
And in my C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin\bitcoin.conf I have these lines: checklevel=2 dbcache=3000 Still now "failed to read data" right after starting, syncs perhaps two weeks of data. Tried deleting db, antivirus off, etc. Title: Re: Failed to read block, and no, "-checklevel=2" doesn't help..

Post by: kerubi on September 12, 2013, 02:28:32 PM Well, now it is syncing.. after multiple restarts and database deletions, the only thing I could pin this on was quite a strange thing.. If I clicked the client window active, it would fail to read block. If I would not touch it, it very slowly synced. So I let it run all night and it slowly made progress. Now it seems to work even if I click the window. Strange, all I can say :)
