Dash v12.3 Release Announcement - available July 3rd

[tungfa]

please double check your MN that you are on
12.3.1
Ver: 70210 !!
(there are a lot of other Versions listed on Dashninja)
+
don't forget to pull fresh sentinel (1.2.0, master branch)

 

[Twilight Miner]

Good news. Will update my MN after payment.

Are you running DashCore on Fedora, CentOS or RHEL using my RPMs? If so, everything has been updated for the new release at https://github.com/taw00/dashcore-rpm

Please note the upgrade instructions found here: https://github.com/taw00/dashcore-rpm/documentation Read: "Upgrading Major Versions: How to Upgrade from Version 12.2 to 12.3".

It's pretty trivial even though the written instructions are fairly pedantic (a few commands, and for masternode owners, a restart), but it is worth doing this correctly.

Disclaimer: My builds are not officially endorsed (unofficially endorsed?) by Dash Core Group, but I have been building them for years now without incident. And, of course, I eat my own dogfood.

v.12.2.3 vs v.12.3.1 masternode efficiency comparison

I was just thinking, version 12.3 does not seem like its a major upgrade at all, but if that really how much it differs in resource requirements, that really is allot of difference.
I am assuming there is something else going on if not than Dash Core really dropped the ball on there press release, because the should write down something about a big performance boost, and maybe about scaling or something.
I don't mean to troll but I felt a bit embarrassed and underwhelmed, when reading the press release. Un the less do I am sure plenty has changed under the hood, but that doesn't get people excited.

Sorry. Fixed in the original posting. https://github.com/taw00/dashcore-rpm/tree/master/documentation

And yes... Dash Masternode Tool works with it (and I build an RPM version of that as well, but you can use any build you want). I use a Trezor and the dash-masternode-tool myself.

Yep, but i'm glad devs can optimize code and system to faster and better every new release.
But after this i think that resource requirements will start to grow as evolution is coming after version 12.4.

@HashEngineering mobile?

The mobile apps will still work during the upgrade process without being updated. Nevertheless, we are finalizing the Android app (Dash Wallet) and it will be released by the end of next week (July 13).

hi, I need start my masternode offline for better security, it will be possible? from new Dash_core ?...
pivx coin have function for start masternode offline and next relay as HEX online, but in new Dash console
such functions are missing.... or Im blind

 

[nmarley]

By when is the deadline to upgrade? I have an MN which got paid earlier today. Should I upgrade now or wait until the next payout?

I'd recommend upgrading ASAP. There's really no benefit for waiting if you just got a payout and if you wait too long you'll eventually get removed from the list once the right spork is turned on.

Better to do it now and be safe than sorry IMO.

 

[revelations86]

Thanks! and what's the command to upgrade sentinel again?

 

[nmarley]

Thanks! and what's the command to upgrade sentinel again?

Should be in the README, but...

cd /path/to/sentinel
git pull

 

[qwizzie]

Thanks. I am now also getting "Masternode Sync Failed"

Stop your wallet and delete the dat files in your data directory (all dat files except your wallet.dat !!) and restart your wallet.
That fixed it for me.

Note : just to be clear, i'm talking about the dat files in your data directory, not any dat files inside folders inside your data directory

Edit : after you deleted your dat files and started your wallet, it may need another close and restart of your wallet as during the closing it will create those dat files you deleted again, which may help with the syncing

 

[IcyBud]

Hello,
The MN is updated!
But i got an error in the make process - luckily after finishing the dashd

Where can i report the error?
[..]
test/alert_tests.cpp: In constructor ‘ReadAlerts::ReadAlerts()’:
test/alert_tests.cpp:112:40: error: ‘raw_tests’ has not been declared
[..]

@UdjinM6 posted on discord :

Friendly reminder to all MNOs: pls make sure to upgrade remote masternode AND local wallet (or DMT) before restarting your masternode. You *must* start it from _upgraded_ wallet (or via DMT with protocol 70210) or otherwise it won't activate. There are ~400 0.12.3.1/70208 (inactive) masternodes atm, make sure your MN is not one of them.

...

wut?

I still have no idea what it is, why I should care, and why time was spent making this thing that wasn't mentioned anywhere ever on any roadmap type thingy...

By the OP's description, it doesn't have anything to do with testing/testnet. And even if it does, why is it on mainnet?

Re: Firing up private testnets. I've not looked into that feature yet but it sounds similar to an idea mentioned by Greg Maxwell (in 2015 iirc, I'd first seen discussed in 2014) for testing developments in a live environment, the continuation of that being able to use those features on livenet in a sandboxed environment and then full integration if that goes well. That's pure guesswork on my part so maybe I'm way off the mark but it would create a very simple path for testing and integration of community developed features.

thanks buddy, I got it!

one problem though ... I accidentally jumped the gun and deleted dash-cli and dashd from .dashcore and added the new ones from 7/9/2018. *Then* I tried to stop it using the "./dash-cli stop" command.

that's when I get a message: permission denied...

What do you suggest I do now? thanks!

What's taking so long Why aren't the mining pools updated yet to version 0.12.3

 

[ribbit]

After updating the dash-qt wallet to v0.12.3.2, I can't restart the Masternode. Error:
"Failed to start masternode
Error: Could not allocate outpoint TX ..... for masternode xxxxx:9999"
( IP changed here to xxxx )
( TX is the Transaction hash )

Any ideas please?
