TRC: 32-bit Linux client cannot synchronize with TerraCoin network

[rav3n_pl]

Tried also compiling w/o -O option, same thing.
Any news?

[aa]

It's still broken.

[rav3n_pl]

Yea, over 3 weeks, no response from devs. For me TRC is dead.

Posted on SF: https://sourceforge.net/p/terracoin/discussion/general/thread/51f8836e/?limit=25#d3ef
Maybe devs are lookin there...

[K0T0]

Same problem on my side. I recently post on github my situation: I have an Ubuntu1204 box 32-bit with a headless terracoind compiled from sources (git). Block loading is getting stuck on #137429.

I try the usual: restart daemon, restart OS, compile an older and newer terracoin clients and test it, start the daemon with "-rescan" option but nothing seems to overcome the problem. Still get it stuck on same block.

cat@ubuntu1204S:~/coins/terracoin-master/src$ ./terracoind getinfo
{
"version" : 80000,
"protocolversion" : 70001,
"walletversion" : 60000,
"balance" : 2.86100020,
"blocks" : 137429,
"timeoffset" : -1,
"connections" : 8,
"proxy" : "",
"difficulty" : 5254.96236407,
"testnet" : false,
"keypoololdest" : 1367619363,
"keypoolsize" : 101,
"paytxfee" : 0.00000000,
"errors" : ""
}

in debug.log shows things similiar that some people already commented:

received block 00000000000342fd6e38765cc6f8f56d60c49e3e9522a54d99f561d35800a293 from xxxxxx:13333
ERROR: AcceptBlock() : incorrect proof of work
ERROR: ProcessBlock() : AcceptBlock FAILED

mmm... seems to be the same "problematic" block described earlier: 137162...


I really don't want to format my linux box for installing 64bit version or Windoze.

Any suggestions will be very wellcome.

Thanks for your help,

@K0T0: You may copy the chain database from a synchronized Windows machine.
Don't forget to save (backup) your terracoin.conf and wallet.dat files (from your linux machine), then copy the rest from Windows.
That's what I did, and it worked! See below post:

I've finally managed to copy the block chain from Windows to Linux!
Here is how:

1. Copy the ENTIRE Terracoin folder from Windows (which was synchronized) - without wallet.dat and terracoin.conf
2. Paste to .terracoin folder in Linux
3. IMPORTANT! Delete .terracoin/database/log.00000000  files! (all log.xxx files from .terracoin/database/ folder!)
4. copy your saved wallet.dat and terracoin.conf files to .terracoin folder on Linux
5. start the daemon (terracoind -daemon)

Done! Linux daemon is now synchronized!

[rav3n_pl]

It is "working" only because not all blocks are checked on daemon start, use -rescan and you are in same point!

[pawlak2]

Does not for me.
After copying files terracoind wont start beacouse:

Code:

: Error opening block database.

with -rescan, same thing

When I start terracoind -reindex, it's going fine until the fatal block

Are You sure your trying this on 32bit linux version ?
My version:

Code:

Terracoin version v0.1.3rc4-11-gee218b9 (2013-04-19 12:05:41 +0200)

[K0T0]

@calonew & @rav3n_pl & @pawlak2   Many thanks for your quick answers!.   

I was read all the post before putting my question.. and yes I saw the "block-copy solution", thanks for remember me, but honestly I didn't convince me too much... mainly because in some point the daemon will get stuck again, sooner or later.... and  .... my afraid was confirmed with the pawlak2 comments... Thanks for testing it.

I spend Yesterday installing another new box with windoze and downloaded all the block chains. The daemon for windows works fine (I was tested the binary version on windows 7).

The problem seems to be NOT in the block chain (data) itself, is somewhere into the code... but where??? and why only Linux 32 is affected. Is a sort of compiler trick that with the same source code do it good in 64bits and Win and simultaneously does bad in Linux 32 bits... very strange.

may be some forget compiler flag for 64/32bits fooling around?

Thanks to all for the help.

[calonew]

It is "working" only because not all blocks are checked on daemon start, use -rescan and you are in same point!

The -rescan option is NOT redownloading the chain blocks. It only checks and update the WALLET for missing transactions, using the already downloaded chain block database. However, it does not affect the downloaded chain in any way.
(more information about -rescan here: http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/1249/how-exactly-does-rescan-work

Does not for me.
After copying files terracoind wont start beacouse:

Code:

: Error opening block database.

with -rescan, same thing

That happened to me too, until I deleted all log.xxx files from .terracoin/database/ folder.
So, after copying the database files from Windows machine, do not forget to delete log.xxx files (from STEP 3)
Otherwise it gives that database error message.

However, following these steps was the only solution for me.

[K0T0]

Hi calonew,

I tried your suggestions (copying block procedure, deleting database/log.*), but the daemon quit afters a few seconds started, giving a core dump:

Code:

Line 1: 986 segmentation fault (core dumped)

using gdb with the core dumpshows at end:

Code:

[debug libthread_db enabled]
Using host libthread_db library "/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libthread_db.so.1".
Program finish with signal 11, Segmentation fault.
#0  0x080b7c66 in GetBlockTime (this=<optimized out>) at main.h:1731

In debug.log, everything seems normal, but final lines shows when the daemon try to recover last generated blocks the program fails:

Code:

[end log]

The Daemon never gets the 150835 block. Now i'm stuck on 150826, that was previusly downloaded by a Windoze machine.

db.log is clean (no records on it).

the "Copy Block" procedure doesn't work for me either.  

Any ideas?

[rav3n_pl]

I made change in code that allows to sync linux 32 bit client, but this is VERY dangerous for network, so use it only as temporary "fix" that is NOT fixing issue, only skipping check that is failing on block.
https://github.com/terracoin/terracoin/issues/10#issuecomment-20153594
I hope TRC devs will found some real solution.

[xhabit]

i'think it's work very fine. i was clone today from github ... and is run perfect. no problems ...

I updated source code from github to the latest version and after retest I am sure this bug WAS NOT FIXED...

You don't have the problem described in this thread, your client accepted block 137162.
Is your report from 32-bit Linux? What distribution is that?

[PSL]

I tried to compile TRC client for smartbook Toshiba AC100 that is based around Nvidia Tegra2 (32-bit ARM processor). I run Ubuntu 12.10 (armhf) at AC100.
TRC client passed the test, whole blockchain was downloaded, no issue at all.

I observe the problem at several x86 computers running different 32-bit versions of Ubuntu.

[xhabit]

i'use ubuntu 64bit ... 12.04

you see my output, i'was look ... i get also errors ... or not ... i'dont kow i'ts correct ... to get this errors or not.
but if it's help to found bugs ... of course ... i'give this information ... if my the daemon found errors. 

[rav3n_pl]

Bug still present and cause is unknown, but it is "fixed" by https://github.com/terracoin/terracoin/commit/856387e
