ERROR: Hardened checkpoint at height 0

Hello,

2020-09-03T11:05:58Z ERROR: ConnectBlock: expected hardened checkpoint at height 0

qtumd: validation.cpp:1636: void InvalidChainFound(CBlockIndex*): Assertion `tip' failed.

What is the issue.

Thanks

What version did you compile?

As far as I remember BTC no longer uses hardcoded checkpoints but this is for block 0 so it might still be checking for that.
You can probably google around for that.

Beyond that I have no idea, you will have to wait for a few more knowledgeable people to pop in.

Latest version I think, cloned from repository with --recursive.

Can I use MainNet data( Merkle, Genesis, epoch, nounce) to Testnet and RegTest?

Thanks

Probably not, in the latest version this assertion is in line 1420, not 1636 in validation.cpp. Are you using "23d3ae7accfc690298b1b0bac9615155f485c5ad" version?

It seems that your client found a node with different Genesis Block. All blocks have block hash starting with at least 32 zero bits. Also, this Genesis Block has a very recent timestamp, 2020-09-03.

Hardened checkpoints does not exist in the newest version, grep shows no results for "hardened checkpoint".

I cleaned everything and new genesis block created. Now its working Fine.

Can I use MainNet data( Merkle, Genesis, epoch, nounce) to Testnet and RegTest?

No, due to various reasons such as different address format & genesis block on testnet are different.

Thanks, I used source code to generate Genesisblock hash, with different PCH message and other values for all three.

For Mainnet and TestNet it crated same Nounce, Markel and Genesis Hash values. But different values for RegTest.
