1 2017-07-29 00:55:34 <Mad7Scientist> arubi, kinlo I think the database keeps a checksum of the blocks. If there is a drive error then it will say block checksum error as it has in the past. Maybe this is some kind of other bug where bad data was put in the block somehow. Anyway reindex is working but it hasn't made it back to the failed block yet.
 2 2017-07-29 01:00:28 <kinlo> Mad7Scientist: bitcoin blocks are based on all checksums, the blockhash *is* a checksum, the question is not wether checksums are present, the question is wether they are validated
 3 2017-07-29 01:02:24 <kinlo> anyway, bedtime, afk
 4 2017-07-29 02:22:02 <Mad7Scientist> kinlo, I have gotten the block checksum error ... database corrupted message before
 5 2017-07-29 06:46:36 <cluelessperson> Curious, has anyone worked to outline general procedures/guidelines for bitcoin usage and storage?
 6 2017-07-29 12:34:58 <bryyan> is this the thread I would use If I were looking to make a custom Bitcoin node modelled after the "standard" Bitcoin node?
 7 2017-07-29 12:37:53 <molz> Mad7Scientist, are you downloading the chain on windows?
 8 2017-07-29 12:39:46 <bryyan> no I'm on Linux, currently no node running
 9 2017-07-29 12:40:00 <Mad7Scientist> molz, not right now

12 2017-07-29 12:41:01 <bryyan> er nvm the 2nd thing I mentioned, I joined this channel after some stuff was posted
13 2017-07-29 12:41:02 <Mad7Scientist> That was yesterday's error but now I'm doing -reindex
14 2017-07-29 12:44:02 <molz> Mad7Scientist, if i were you i would just redownload the chain using the latest version
15 2017-07-29 12:44:32 <Mad7Scientist> ok
16 2017-07-29 12:45:08 <Mad7Scientist> What developmental software has been used to build the Windows bitcoin core?
17 2017-07-29 12:45:48 <molz> you can use linux to build windows bitcoin
18 2017-07-29 12:46:20 <Mad7Scientist> oh wow
19 2017-07-29 12:48:31 <bryyan> I have used Linux's gcc to build packages for alternate distrobutions as well as architectures (on powerPC compiling for AMD64)
20 2017-07-29 12:49:07 <bryyan> as well as using Make I think you'll find those tools quite useful for cross-compilation in the Linux world

22 2017-07-29 22:19:42 <eck> why does the dumpwallet command produce two keys for each hdpath? is that related to lowS/highS, or something else?
23 2017-07-29 22:27:39 <achow101> eck: no, lowS/highS has nothing to do with keys
24 2017-07-29 22:29:04 <achow101> its from encryption
25 2017-07-29 22:29:22 <achow101> when you encrypt the wallet, a new hd master key is generated and derivation begins from 0 there
