Spinning for all tiles in GUI + KeyError in debug for Wallet Start

[BigPeteL]

Hi Folks,
I've recently upgraded to 1.2.9 and on starting the full node the gui it shows the correct account but when selected everything on the Full Node Tab is the spinning circle (even after 48hrs+) On investigation I can see the following errors in the debug.log

2021-10-06T12:25:43.217 farmer farmer_server : INFO Cannot connect to host 127.0.0.1:8444 ssl:<ssl.SSLContext object at 0x7f74b4a9a740> [Connect call failed ('127.0.0.1', 8444)] 2021-10-06T12:25:44.372 wallet wallet : INFO Reconnecting to peer {'host': '127.0.0.1', 'port': 8444} 2021-10-06T12:25:44.375 wallet wallet_server : INFO Cannot connect to host 127.0.0.1:8444 ssl:<ssl.SSLContext object at 0x7f5b8d17a4c0> [Connect call failed ('127.0.0.1', 8444)] 2021-10-06T12:25:46.220 farmer farmer : INFO Reconnecting to peer {'host': '127.0.0.1', 'port': 8444} 2021-10-06T12:25:46.223 farmer farmer_server : INFO Cannot connect to host 127.0.0.1:8444 ssl:<ssl.SSLContext object at 0x7f74b4a76ac0> [Connect call failed ('127.0.0.1', 8444)] 2021-10-06T12:25:47.376 wallet wallet : INFO Reconnecting to peer {'host': '127.0.0.1', 'port': 8444} 2021-10-06T12:25:47.379 wallet wallet_server : INFO Cannot connect to host 127.0.0.1:8444 ssl:<ssl.SSLContext object at 0x7f5b8d17a840> [Connect call failed ('127.0.0.1', 8444)] 2021-10-06T12:25:49.225 farmer farmer : INFO Reconnecting to peer {'host': '127.0.0.1', 'port': 8444} 2021-10-06T12:25:49.228 farmer farmer_server : INFO Cannot connect to host 127.0.0.1:8444 ssl:<ssl.SSLContext object at 0x7f74b4b18e40> [Connect call failed ('127.0.0.1', 8444)] 2021-10-06T12:25:50.383 wallet wallet : INFO Reconnecting to peer {'host': '127.0.0.1', 'port': 8444}

After starting the full node (or just wallet-only) I get an error on screen of -
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/username/chia-blockchain/venv/bin/chia_full_node", line 33, in <module> sys.exit(load_entry_point('chia-blockchain', 'console_scripts', 'chia_full_node')()) File "/home/username/chia-blockchain/chia/server/start_full_node.py", line 60, in main return run_service(**kwargs) File "/home/username/chia-blockchain/chia/server/start_service.py", line 255, in run_service return asyncio.run(async_run_service(*args, **kwargs)) File "/usr/lib/python3.8/asyncio/runners.py", line 44, in run return loop.run_until_complete(main) File "/usr/lib/python3.8/asyncio/base_events.py", line 616, in run_until_complete return future.result() File "/home/username/chia-blockchain/chia/server/start_service.py", line 249, in async_run_service return await service.run() File "/home/username/chia-blockchain/chia/server/start_service.py", line 171, in run await self.start() File "/home/username/chia-blockchain/chia/server/start_service.py", line 135, in start await self._node._start(**kwargs) File "/home/username/chia-blockchain/chia/full_node/full_node.py", line 153, in _start self.blockchain = await Blockchain.create(self.coin_store, self.block_store, self.constants, self.hint_store) File "/home/username/chia-blockchain/chia/consensus/blockchain.py", line 116, in create await self._load_chain_from_store() File "/home/username/chia-blockchain/chia/consensus/blockchain.py", line 129, in _load_chain_from_store height_to_hash, sub_epoch_summaries = await self.block_store.get_peak_height_dicts() File "/home/username/chia-blockchain/chia/full_node/block_store.py", line 322, in get_peak_height_dicts curr_height = hash_to_height[curr_header_hash] KeyError: b'<SNIP FOR PRIVACY>'

I've tried even just starting the wallet-only and still receive the same KeyError above. I've tried renaming the .chia folder and re-setting up/resyncing but neither seem to help.

Anyone have any suggestions?

@BigPeteL , the newest version(s) of chia has fixes in place to resolve this issue. Please download it from here: https://www.chia.net/downloads/

Since this issue has been resolved with the latest version(s) of chia we will be closing this ticket but if we have closed this ticket in error do not hesitate to reach out to us again with any followup questions, comments, or if the issue persists after an update.

Please note that upgrading major versions of chia generally requires the config.yaml to be recreated using these steps:
1. Stop chia
2. Rename the config or move it to a different directory
3. In CLI run chia init
4. Copy any custom settings from the old config to the new (plot drive directories, pool info, trusted node info, etc) - be careful here as yaml is very picky about formatting including those leading spaces
5. Start Chia
