Title: ERROR: ConnectBlock: Consensus::CheckBlock: bad-txnmrklroot, hashMerkleRoot mism Post by: joondez on December 20, 2017, 04:45:11 PM So my Bitcoin Core (v0.15.1 64-bit) is definitely stuck. Screenshot below. Anybody know what I can do? This is what shows in the debug.log:

Stop Bitcoin Core and go to the Bitcoin Core data directory and delete the blocks and chainstate folders. Then start Bitcoin Core again.

You should run diagnostics on your RAM and hard drive to make sure that there are no errors.Title: Re: ERROR: ConnectBlock: Consensus::CheckBlock: bad-txnmrklroot, hashMerkleRoot mism Post by: joondez on December 26, 2017, 05:37:01 PM What standard diagnostics tool is regularly used by this forum?
Not sure I have a hardware problem. I've been using this external hard drive to torrent and run other tasks, and have no problems. I can also play video games and utilize my RAM with no issues as well. Title: Re: ERROR: ConnectBlock: Consensus::CheckBlock: bad-txnmrklroot, hashMerkleRoot mism Post by: joondez on December 27, 2017, 03:38:39 PM I give up. This is impossible. Client doesn't work, can't sync to the blockchain at all.

I've been using this external hard drive to torrent and run other tasks, and have no problems. I can also play video games and utilize my RAM with no issues as well. Using an external hard drive is not recommended, both for performance reasons and data corruption reasons. USB is generally slower than the internal connection to a hard drive, so the sync will be much slower. Furthermore, we have found that people have had a hard time with syncing to external hard drives as Bitcoin Core will need continuous connection to the drive and any sort of interruption will result in data corruption. Have you tried not using the external drive?Title: Re: ERROR: ConnectBlock: Consensus::CheckBlock: bad-txnmrklroot, hashMerkleRoot mism Post by: goddog on June 09, 2018, 05:11:34 PM Same problem here, using Bitcoin Core Daemon version v0.16.1rc2
CentOS Linux release 7.4.1708 (Core) in a virtualbox environment. (internal hdd no USB) I will need weeks, or months, to resynchronize from the beginning :-( Bitcoin Core will need continuous connection to the drive and any sort of interruption will result in data corruption. this is very bad. something have to be done to prevent a total corruption, I know the best way to have it done is to work on it myself.... I will try, but C my coding skills are not the best. A workaround can be to backup the blockchain daily... I will try to implement this first. |
