Error: Parse Error: missing field 'syncing'

[stewfarq]

A few days ago whilst starting v.0.1.1 I get a consistent error, after the "Creating Consesus Node" screen, as follows :

Error: Parse Error: missing field 'syncing'

The node and farm was fully synced for about a week on the 3G network before this error.

Do you happen to run another instance of Subspace software by any chance? Try to close the app and see in task manager if anything is running (or log out/log in just in case).

What this seems to indicate is that some other (older) version of Subspace might be running at the same time on the same machine.

Hi Nazar, I have been running subspace on WSL (Ubuntu) on 3G network for about 8 weeks successfully in parallel. They do not use the same SSD as I have two SSD's, What is confusing me is that v0.1.1 was working for over a week with no changes in the config of the PC. Do you recommend to try to reinstall v0.1.1? How do I ensure that my 500Gb farm is not overwritten and is reused?

[nazar-pc]

Reinstallation will not change anything because I don't think installation is broken. Try to do what I suggested above and update me whether something changes.

Hi Nazar, you are right. I stopped my WSL Ubuntu node and farmer. Started Space Acres and it started fine. I then restarted the WSL farmer and got this error:

2024-02-14T20:09:53.208632Z INFO subspace_farmer::commands::farm: Connecting to node RPC url=ws://127.0.0.1:9944
Error: Networking or low-level protocol error: Error when opening the TCP socket: Connection refused (os error 111)

Caused by:
Error when opening the TCP socket: Connection refused (os error 111)

Is there a way to run both farmers in parallel? e.g. to change the TCP port 9944 to another port?

[nazar-pc]

Interesting. Actually I wanted to change the port to avoid such overlap (and eventually we will disable RPC altogether), would you mind sending a PR changing default RPC port 9944 to 19944 here?: https://github.com/nazar-pc/space-acres/blob/16935f62db16fcaae5c16703a9da5a1ec524647f/src/backend/node.rs#L48

Next release will fix this, thanks for reporting!
