0.21 unable to restart #119

Closed prunelsigma closed 3 years ago

prunelsigma commented 3 years ago

Hi, First, thank you for your work. :) It seems you updated the 0.21 tag some days ago since this update, my node using the docker 0.21 is unable to restart. I'm getting this error in the logs (this is the entire logs):

Error: Failed saving settings file:
- Error: Unable to open settings file /data/settings.json.tmp for writing

I'm not sure what this error is about:

If you have an idea ? Thank you in advance.

after some investigation, it seems the error is about data corruption. It seems my node restarting and your update was really bad timing causing this problem.

For anyone with the same problem: I'm afraid you need to restart from scratch (or snapshot in my case) since -reindex-chainstate will not even start. Maybe deleting a specific file will solve this better, I'm not sure which corrupted file is causing this.

@prunelsigma my recommendation is to use specific version tags to avoid any issues like that. Glad you were to at least find the problem.
