remanifest: "binds to the localhost's TOR at 127.0.0.1:18081" what does that mean?
-
selsta
can you post your exact config?
-
selsta
if you stay stuck on the same block it could be that your blockchain is corrupted
-
selsta
or your internet connection is too slow to get new blocks
-
remanifest
@ocb: I believe so - it hasn't changed recently. Inbitmonero.conf, I am using tx-proxy=tor,127.0.0.1:9050,10

remanifest
selsta: When I launch monerod, I get these info notices on the console: Binding on 127.0.0.1 (IPv4):18081 \ core RPC server initialized OK on port: 18081
-
remanifest
Internet connection is fiber
-
selsta
do you always stay stuck on the same block?
-
remanifest
"Always" since this started happening, yes.
-
selsta
is the blockchain on a separate hard drive?
-
remanifest
Yes
-
selsta
it sounds like corrupted blockchain
-
selsta
it can't verify the block
-
remanifest
So I've got to redownload it?
-
remanifest
Or is there a way to make it find the bad block and just pick up from the latest good block?
-
selsta
can't verify block -> it starts to ban the peers thinking they are sending garbage -> you stay stuck
-
remanifest
Ok, yeah, that's definitely happening.
-
selsta
you can try to enter `pop_blocks 500` into monerod
-
selsta
but I'm sure it will get stuck again
-
selsta
so you most likely have to sync from scratch again
-
selsta
if you use v0.17.3.0 is should sync faster due to fresh checkpoints
-
remanifest
Ok, cool - do I just wipe out data.mdb?
-
remanifest
A whole hell of a lot cleaner than BTC if so
-
selsta
yes
-
selsta
just data.mdb
-
remanifest
And we're back in business
-
remanifest
On 0.17.3.0
-
remanifest
Thanks for teaching me selsta
-
Mochi101
teach me to delete files sir
-
selsta
make sure to not unplug your external hard drive during initial sync otherwise it will corrupt again
-
remanifest
Yeah, no idea why it got corrupted in the first place!
-
selsta
yep difficult to tell
-
remanifest
I had it syncing overnight - noticed it stopped, and it never picked up again. Tried rotating obfs4proxies
-
remanifest
I'm only 2.48 million blocks away now :)
-
Mochi101
The current block height is 2,510,738.

Mochi101
Doing good remanifest.
