mod6: we're still testing this out... but i/we haven't encoutered anything like this until just this past 72 hours:
mod6: one sec, i have a matrix for what we've tried.
mod6: in a wide variety of ways, and it's not consistant, we've been having issues getting past the last checkpoint block (more often than not): 168,000
mod6: asciilifeform: thanks for the submission for removal of dnsseed
mod6: haha. imagine a good law.
mod6: here i was all excited. like "YES PIG ROAST TIME!!!"
mod6: oh jeeze. lol. i'd be terrible at that.
mod6: wait... does this mean a roast of meat? or of personalities?
mod6: mircea_popescu: sure!
mod6: werd. lettuce know how it goes. :]
mod6: reference implementation
mod6: that's neat. gonna test RI on 'em?
mod6: you're running with a 250 size limit cap now right?
mod6: wait until you get to here:
mod6: !v assbot:mod6.rate.TomServo.1:e69b8f3713a82dde384db1535cb3f7d53b94c207c304be7dc8f77886fc0e8c43
mod6: !rate TomServo 1 Helped me test a script for The Bitcoin Foundation
mod6: kakobrekla: i like that.
mod6: maybe "disconnected blocks" or something
mod6: mircea_popescu: fair point there.
mod6: they really are "orphans", since an orphan is someone with out parents right? so im fine with calling them orphans, i think there is confusion around how these come into existance.
mod6: pblock is probably not a good name, since in most of the code "pblock" is what is denoted for a pointer to a block.
mod6: that's an original v0.5.3 comment
mod6: there are some good ones in 2011 too
mod6: felipelalli: read all of 2012, 2013, 2014 & 2015 trilema.com
mod6: works pretty decent with lynx
mod6: i just swapped it like 2 seconds ago
mod6: thebitcoin.foundation
mod6: think we should switch to the black & hacker-green motif?
mod6: Reference Implementation
mod6: we appreciate all the help that the attendants of #b-a have given to the foundation & the effort to decruft the R.I.
mod6: thanks for the help mike_c!
mod6: well, for instance if you received the blocks out of order, and then you got the child of 144,000 a few after some others, then it can't continue
mod6: not sure what the specifics were there.
mod6: well, if he removed the entire orphanMap, then it if the chain split off and became the new best chain, it can't move forward.
mod6: The Bitcoin Developers^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^HPower Rangers
mod6: i think all of 'em say that now
mod6: at the top of that file
mod6: but yeah, that's one of the goals for this year is to get it going there.
mod6: we want to get this thing running on openbsd, but in the 5 minutes i looked at it, iirc there was a database version change and maybe another thing or two that needed to change. can't recall off the bat.
mod6: well, he was just looking at how they limit to 750 in forward versions right?
mod6: I appreciate any help/guidence you can provide in that direction.
mod6: ah, yikes. we'll keep working on the map of orphans problem into next month for sure.
mod6: how many times has it died?
mod6: oh nm, i need to learn to read. thought it said OPENBSD not OPENSSL
mod6: asciilifeform: hey, does your build script build the R.I. on obsd? (haven't had a chance to try it yet)
mod6: anyway, let me know how it goes. im out.
mod6: asciilifeform: you try that thing out, or did you build by hand?
mod6: looks like freddy crugers old furnace
mod6: it'll need some clean up perhaps... but if anyone wants to give that a shot... i had success with that, about 3 times just now
mod6: Bitcoin version 0.5.3.1-beta
mod6: root@ip-172-31-10-219:/mnt/btc-dev/build-script-test/bitcoin-bitcoin-a8def6b/src# grep "Bitcoin version" ~/.bitcoin/debug.log
mod6: maybe i can use this chdir thing
mod6: but apparently you have to be in the src dir to execute the `make -f makefile.unix` successfully.
mod6: damn. literally on the last step here.
mod6: on the last part...
mod6: mike_c: \o/ neat pic :)
mod6: maybe i can whip something out
mod6: let me see what I can do about a perl script quick.
mod6: just make /sure/ to patch in the specified order.
mod6: anyway, i'll cross my fingers that you can get through it.
mod6: should be version 0.0.4
mod6: ok, well, the latest build guide will help you.
mod6: sorry for the trouble here.
mod6: after those are done, i'll revisit all of this again. i'll pull that link off the website for now..
mod6: and then I gotta start writing the eom docs.
mod6: right now, i gotta figure out how to patch the test servers
