Title: Bitcoin Core 0.9.2.1 has been released
Post by: wumpus on June 17, 2014, 09:15:20 AM
Bitcoin Core version 0.9.2.1 is now available from:

  https://bitcoin.org/bin/0.9.2.1/ (https://bitcoin.org/bin/0.9.2.1/)
  or https://bitcoin.org/en/download
  (0.9.2.1 fixes a UI issue on MacOSX as well as a rare shutdown issue, but apart from that is the same as 0.9.2)

This is a new minor version release, bringing mostly bug fixes and some minor
improvements. OpenSSL has been updated because of a security issue (CVE-2014-0224).
Upgrading to this release is recommended.

Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github:

  https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues)

Upgrading and downgrading
==========================

How to Upgrade
--------------

If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely
shut down (which might take a few minutes for older versions), then run the
installer (on Windows) or just copy over /Applications/Bitcoin-Qt (on Mac) or
bitcoind/bitcoin-qt (on Linux).

If you are upgrading from version 0.7.2 or earlier, the first time you run
0.9.0 your blockchain files will be re-indexed, which will take anywhere from
30 minutes to several hours, depending on the speed of your machine.

Downgrading warnings
--------------------

The 'chainstate' for this release is not always compatible with previous
releases, so if you run 0.9.x and then decide to switch back to a
0.8.x release you might get a blockchain validation error when starting the
old release (due to 'pruned outputs' being omitted from the index of
unspent transaction outputs).

Running the old release with the -reindex option will rebuild the chainstate
data structures and correct the problem.

Also, the first time you run a 0.8.x release on a 0.9 wallet it will rescan
the blockchain for missing spent coins, which will take a long time (tens
of minutes on a typical machine).

Important changes
==================

Gitian OSX build
-----------------

The deterministic build system that was already used for Windows and Linux
builds is now used for OSX as well. Although the resulting executables have
been tested quite a bit, there could be possible regressions. Be sure to report
these on the Github bug tracker mentioned above.

Compatibility of Linux build
-----------------------------

For Linux we now build against Qt 4.6, and filter the symbols for libstdc++ and glibc.
This brings back compatibility with

- Debian 6+ / Tails
- Ubuntu 10.04
- CentOS 6.5

0.9.2 Release notes
=======================

The OpenSSL dependency in the gitian builds has been upgraded to 1.0.1h because of CVE-2014-0224.

- Only override -datadir if different from the default (fixes -datadir in config file)
- Show rescan progress at start-up
- Show importwallet progress
- Get required locks upfront in polling functions (avoids hanging on locks)
- Catch Windows shutdown events while client is running
- Optionally add third party links to transaction context menu
- Check for !pixmap() before trying to export QR code (avoids crashes when no QR code could be generated)
- Fix "Start bitcoin on system login"

Miscellaneous:

- Replace non-threadsafe C functions (gmtime, strerror and setlocale)
- Add missing cs_main and wallet locks
- Avoid exception at startup when system locale not recognized
- Changed bitrpc.py's raw_input to getpass for passwords to conceal characters during command line input

Well it combines information from different subsystems - the wallet, P2P networking, block chain handling, etc. It doesn't fit in the more modular approach that we have in mind. It is also slow to acquire all the locks and gather the information.

Nothing yet. They just made new commands that make more sense. The people behind the APIs have time to update their code accordingly so everything goes smoothly when getinfo is removed.

---------------

Optionally add third party links to transaction context menu

Had no time to play with the new client yet, but this sounds like an invitation for phishing. nice feature to have.

Exactly. It will take a very long time until getinfo is actually removed. There is no hurry. But no new information will be added to it anymore, whereas the new calls provide more (and more specific) information so it makes more sense to use them going forward.

Can we leave getinfo untouched in long run too ? Like in Java Vector is deprecated, but we can still have it. I mean the old codes wont crash.

The way I see it, it's much better for you when handling data with the new commands.
Much faster too.

That's possible, but at some point it will lose information. For example, when the wallet is split off to another project, it will no longer contain wallet information. So no matter what you use it for, it will lose its remaining usefulness over time. At a certain point it's better to just remove the call and clean up the code a bit...

That's a known issue. It's too bad that no one discovered it in the -rc phase. Anyhow, next release it will be fixed.
Please get an OS that is still supported.

Only if you test it on winXP. That's the purpose of test builds and release candidates. This issue is not specific to XP, though.
OS X version have font bug. I cant see addresses
Someone else also reported font issues on OSX in an earlier post. Can you post a screenshot?

You don't. Bitcoin Core is for enthusiasts, merchants and those that want to support the network with full nodes, which are the backbone of the network. If you just want a wallet, don't use it.

NB: If you use MacOSX 10.9 and use the Wallet GUI do not upgrade to 0.9.2 for now - there is a font issue with addresses, we likely need to rebuild the executable

Bitcoin Core version 0.9.2 is now available from:

Upgrading to this release is recommended.

Is there a classification of importance/urgency levels about upgrading to new releases?
Or is it just a matter between recommended and mandatory?

Ty in advance.

I have a other issue/problem ... the application crash without message.
This morning, i have noticed that my mining device don't "work" (in pause mode).

I open my windows xp 32 bits machine ... and remark in DEBUG LOG (baretail display) that it have stopped (without warning in DEBUG log) at 5h A.M.



rollback to 0.9.1, sorry ... a random crash (without DEBUG log) is not possible for me.
i have opened the webtemp display to view a specific problem on RAM or CPU at this time (5h A.M.) but nothing append at this time (and all other service on this machine work like usually).



i use bitcoin-qt on this machine since november 2013.

I'm wondering if this is an urgent upgrade as well. I'm currently using 0.8.6 and it works fine. Any real need to upgrade to this recent version? I'd really like to just have a core client that is a set-and-forget software rather than one that needs constant updating every few weeks. Currently using MS Windows if that matters at all.

Hi, I may roll back from 0.9.2.1

I find that app becomes unresponsive on OSX 10.9.3 and requires restarting (despite the notification centre alerts - alerting fine despite the app being in a hung state)
The previous version, I was able to leave it on for days with no issue.

0.9.1 work fine, too ... no crashs, no freezes and potential more filters for dust/ip ban and other network pollution.
0.9.2.1 crash randomly without notice message.

The backwards compatibility with older linux distros looks great.  However, if this is the upgrade that contains the fix for the openssl dependencies, then shouldn't this be a *major* bugfix release?  Or maybe there's some other problem with openssl you were referring to.

openssl was fixed earlier: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=562409.0


For those wondering whether to upgrade from x.x.x, have a look here and see if it concerns you. https://bitcoin.org/en/version-history

I don't think this will help a lot, esp. since I don't see anything special in the logs, but here goes anyway...

Windows XP: Within Armory bitcoind 9.2.1 crashes, whereas 0.9.1 runs fine.

Since i use MultiBit wallet i don't need that shity Bitcoin Core on my PC with 21 GB of data. Thanks to the guy that made MultiBit. And to be honest i don't trust it since the last problem i had in that software (couldn't recover my wallet backup on it, balance was allways 0, while blockchain showed that addys in that wallet still have money on them).

I switched to multibit as well because of the fact that my little computer couldn't really keep up with downloading the whole blockchain.  However, now there's a thread saying that multibit has a lot of issues with losing coins.  I've never had it happen to me but I'm a bit worried by it.

Finally, what about my question about openssl?

And to be honest i don't trust it since the last problem i had in that software (couldn't recover my wallet backup on it, balance was allways 0, while blockchain showed that addys in that wallet still have money on them).

Bitcoin Core is perhaps a shity thing, but how could you do bitcoin transactions without nodes... and nodes are Bitcoin Core...
Could you think more thoroughly before saying that Bitcoin Core is shit?

I have a other issue/problem ... the application crash without message.
This morning, i have noticed that my mining device don't "work" (in pause mode).

I open my windows xp 32 bits machine ... and remark in DEBUG LOG (baretail display) that it have stopped (without warning in DEBUG log) at 5h A.M.

i have re-try an other time ... and now, after 48h, no crash.
perhaps the increase of deployed 0.9.2.1 ?  ( https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/dashboard/ )

I just seam to have problems with the core full stop, I have started threads, But I guess my system is weird.
using Avera and MBAM (pro), Also running FTC/LTC wallets no problems!

I am win 7 (64) Ultimate, When I use 8.6 it stops updating, then restarting the app fixes the problem, I moved to first core when it came out, and did not update one block (it was connecting to nodes fine and did not have any errors) so I went back to 8.6, Ran fine.

I have moved to core 0.9.2.1 and it just wont update the blockchain, I did a -rescan, I got stuck on 1 year and 34 weeks behind, For three days, I did a -reindex, Stopped at same point? (for a further two days)

Moved back to 8.6, Updated fine?

Hello friends!

I updated my Core client yesterday from 0.9.1.0; but I'm not really sure if this version provoked the error message below:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
A fatal error occurred. Bitcoin can no longer continue safely and will quit.

EXCEPTION: 13leveldb_error
Database I/O error
C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe in Runaway axception

Item detected: Bitcoins\chainstate\149013.ldb
My OS: Windows 7 32bits

Hope somebody could let me understand if this is really a virus; and help me to solve it.

Thank you very much!

If you have backed up your wallet file once wild that be enough or so you have so it regularly and why?

It would be enough only if you nearly stop to send BTC from your wallet.

The problem is the so named "change" and the fact that the wallet has only a limited number of pregenerated priv-key/addresses for changes.
At the end (after 100 transactions if I well remember), you will receive your changes on new addresses that aren't saved on your backup copy.

I've used this new 0.9.2.1 version for almost 2 months now. I accidentally opened up 0.8.6, and now when I open up the 0.9.2.1, all the blocks have to be reindexed which will take hours. I can't use Amory either, until all the blocks are reindexed  >:(

^ Thank you for the link. Just found this bit of info from it, which I just noticed in the OP as well  :-\

Downgrading warnings

The ‘chainstate’ for this release is not always compatible with previous releases, so if you run 0.9 and then decide to switch back to a 0.8.x release you might get a blockchain validation error when starting the old release (due to ‘pruned outputs’ being omitted from the index of unspent transaction outputs).

Running the old release with the -reindex option will rebuild the chainstate data structures and correct the problem.

Also, the first time you run a 0.8.x release on a 0.9 wallet it will rescan the blockchain for missing spent coins, which will take a long time (tens of minutes on a typical machine).

Turns out my ISP had suddenly blocked port 8333. The addnode worked with a nonstandard port. Other alt coin wallets work just fine so I guess they use a different port. In future, it seems like a good idea to add nodes that have non-standard ports for the bitcoin default node list, to prevent connection errors. Also this would makes it more difficult for ISP's to censor bitcoin traffic.

ISP?  or some crappy antivirus software?

I have downloaded the latest version of Bitcoin core, however the old QT version was still on my PC in another install location. I accidentally started this older version and it started re-indexing/verifying the blockchain. I exited and started the new Core version. Now Bitcoin Core is trying to get the whole blockchain again from the start...

Am I going to have a bad time? Or is there a way to undo this? It would take days to download everything again, plus the database folder is still 24 GB, so it *should* be still there.

The initial download+verification can take a long time depending on your computer. (Took me recently 3-4 days on an older computer)
You just have to wait it out.

Not update block data for one year.
Just now,when I open my wallet, a bit difficult to open it.
If I use the old wallet, it affects the transceiver about bitcoins ?
