## Eth/65 loses peers
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
From v1.4.4, `eth/65` is [disabled by default](https://github.com/hyperledger/besu/pull/741).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If enabled, peers will slowly drop off and eventually Besu will fall out of sync or stop syncing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A fix for this issue is being actively worked on.

## Fast sync when running Besu on cloud providers
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A known [RocksDB issue](https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/6435) causes fast sync to fail
|
|
|
|
when running Besu on certain cloud providers. The following error is displayed repeatedly:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
EthScheduler-Services-1 (importBlock) | ERROR | PipelineChainDownloader | Chain download failed. Restarting after short delay.
|
|
|
|
java.util.concurrent.CompletionException: org.hyperledger.besu.plugin.services.exception.StorageException: org.rocksdb.RocksDBException: block checksum mismatch:
|
|
|
|
....
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This behaviour has been seen on AWS and Digital Ocean.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Workaround -> On AWS, a full restart of the AWS VM is required to restart the fast sync.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fast sync is not currently supported on Digital Ocean. We are investigating options to
|
|
|
|
[add support for fast sync on Digital Ocean](https://github.com/hyperledger/besu/issues/591).

## Privacy users with private transactions created using v1.3.4 or earlier
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A critical issue for privacy users with private transactions created using Hyperledger Besu v1.3.4
|
|
|
|
or earlier has been identified. If you have a network with private transaction created using v1.3.4
|
|
|
|
or earlier, please read the following and take the appropriate steps:

|
## Changes not saved to database correctly causing inconsistent private states
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
While running reorg testing on Besu and Orion, inconsistent private states were observed in some long running tests
|
|
|
|
when state changes were not saved to the database correctly when executing the private transaction.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Workaround -> As the private transaction payloads have all been distributed and the privacy marker
|
|
|
|
transactions included in the chain, resynchronizing the node with an inconsistent state will re-execute
|
|
|
|
the private transactions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A fix for this issue is being actively worked on.
