Actually the installer installs 3.3.1 iirc, but we don't have a way
currently to update old installs.  I manually did mine.

[freenet-support] Bug report

2008-11-22 Thread toadsfri...@hushmail.com
1 of your peers are having severe problems (not acknowledging 
packets even after 10 minutes). This is probably due to a bug in 
the code. Please report it to us at the bug tracker at 
https://bugs.freenetproject.org/ or at support at freenetproject.org. 
Please include this message and what version of the node you are 
running. The affected peers (you may not want to include this in 
your bug report if they are darknet peers) are: 24.80.101.100:16145

My node:
Freenet 0.7 Build #1181 r23784
Freenet-ext Build #26 r23771

Hope this helps.

Well, first of all, all of freenet's dependencies, including this
wrapper utility, are bundled "conveniently" in freenet-ext.jar. So you
likely originally launched it with the "older" 3.2.3 wrapper, and later
one freenet-ext got updated. Restarting the wrapper should get rid of
this message, though I don't think it's anything serious, since my
installation is still using 3.2.3.

I have got that exact same warning in my logs as well. It has been like this

[freenet-support] New windows updater script, recent chaos

2008-11-22 Thread Matthew Toseland
We have a new update.cmd (command line updater script for Windows). If your 
Windows-based node won't start, please run update.cmd (in the folder Freenet 
is installed in, from a command line), and hopefully it will resolve the 
problem. You will need to manually start Freenet after the update succeeds 
(e.g. via the Start Freenet command on the start menu), because it only 
restarts Freenet if it's not actually running.

I'm sorry for the disruption, we've had a series of catastrophic bugs to deal 
with, some of which were long-standing but only became a problem recently due 
to other changes. Some of these resulted in downloading corrupted updates. 
Apart from that, we've had to make a series of changes to freenet-ext.jar, 
and unfortunately we only have partial support for updating it, this again 
resulted in nodes not starting up. We have now fixed update.cmd, so at least 
the last-resort manual update will work; most of the time automatic update 
will work, but unfortunately it is currently possible for the node to update 
the main jar but not the ext jar, and thus break; this will also be fixed 
soon. The actual data corruption bug has been fixed in 1181, a better fix 
will be in 1182, and a long-term solution to the underlying problems (with a 
back-compatible metadata change) hopefully in 1183.

This is mostly my fault ... sorry.

when I have not opened freenet yet and even when I am not at all online.

You do not have to kill them. You can for example visit the web interface and 
click the Shutdown Freenet button at the bottom of the page. Another option 
is to shut down the service from the services box in control panel (where 
exactly this is depends on which version of Windows you are running). You 
should also be able to use the start menu items to start and/or shut down 
Freenet.

You can disable the service from the services control panel page so that you 
start it manually. However I strongly recommend against this. Freenet should 
run continually, and the computer it is run on should run continually, and it 
should have continuous connectivity. Otherwise expect performance to be 
*VERY* poor. In other words, on a laptop which is only occasionally connected 
to the internet, and when it is usually via other people's firewalled wifi's, 
Freenet is *not* going to run well. I agree that this is a problem as a 
rapidly increasing proportion of the world's computers are in exactly this 
situation, but it's not something we can fix before approximately 0.10.

Unfortunately, update.cmd doesn't download freenet-ext.jar. And UOM *does* 
download new versions of the main jar even when it doesn't have the required 
freenet-ext.jar. So the only way to fix your node is to download the 
freenet-ext.jar manually, as Luke suggests. Or wait for the new update.cmd, 
which should be out any minute now.

Dear Supporters, dear Dennis.

On Fri Nov 14 20:50:36 UTC 2008Dennis Nezic asked me:

Well, I'm using a quite old notebook with a harddisc of 30 GB in it and - more 
important - with a no more than 512 MB RAM drive. Since I've installed freenet 
there are two new processes running - as far as I may trust my task-manager

So to me it seems like freenet likes to slow down my computer but at the same

 That's most likely the problem.

 HowTo:
 - Open a Cmd shell (the 'DOS window') Start=Run=(type) cmd = hit enter
 - In the cmd shell, type 'cd C:\Program Files\Freenet' (no quotes) and hit 
enter
 - Now type 'update.cmd testing' (no quotes) - Hit enter
 
 This will update to the latest testing version.
 After completing the update, run update.cmd again, but this time do it the 
regular way (no testing) and the node will be reverted back to latest stable 
version.
 
 You may want to run the testing version to help find bugs before they make

1 of your peers are having severe problems (not acknowledging packets

[freenet-support] What to do via command line

2008-11-22 Thread Markus Hahn
Dear Supporters, dear Dennis.

On Fri Nov 14 20:50:36 UTC 2008Dennis Nezic asked me:

  Out of curiosity, what kinds of things were you looking to do via thecommand 
 line?

Well, I'm using a quite old notebook with a harddisc of 30 GB in it and - more 
important - with a no more than 512 MB RAM drive. Since I've installed freenet 
there are two new processes running - as far as I may trust my task-manager 
program. One of them is called wrapper-linux (a name I also found in one of 
the files of freenet), the other one is some java process. Each of them is 
permanently consuming 30%-80% of my CPU power and of RAM memory, even at times 
when there is no established node on my system, I mean when I have not opened 
freenet yet and even when I am not at all online. 
So to me it seems like freenet likes to slow down my computer but at the same 
time makes no use of that. The fact that freenet, when running, might be 
expensive for my system, is not what is bothering me.
I'd like to gain control over these two programs, i.e. I want to be able to 
start and stop them via the command line, especially in times when i am not 
running a node. (I cannot stay online with that old notebook, what surely would 
be the best for freenet, as I have to use it at different locations.) At the 
moment I always have to kill them odd programs via the task manager, not 
really knowing what I am actually doing and if this might lead to damages in 
the programs or to freenet. By the way this is quite annoying.

Thanks for your help.

You do not have to kill them. You can for example visit the web interface and 
click the Shutdown Freenet button at the bottom of the page. Another option 
is to shut down the service from the services box in control panel (where 
exactly this is depends on which version of Windows you are running). You 
should also be able to use the start menu items to start and/or shut down 
Freenet.

You can disable the service from the services control panel page so that you 
start it manually. However I strongly recommend against this. Freenet should 
run continually, and the computer it is run on should run continually, and it 
should have continuous connectivity. Otherwise expect performance to be 
*VERY* poor. In other words, on a laptop which is only occasionally connected 
to the internet, and when it is usually via other people's firewalled wifi's, 
Freenet is *not* going to run well. I agree that this is a problem as a 
rapidly increasing proportion of the world's computers are in exactly this 
situation, but it's not something we can fix before approximately 0.10.

Re: [freenet-support] 1180 - peers forcibly disconnected due to not acknowledging packets

Thanks. We do need to know whether this goes away ... we don't have a fix yet 
though. Keep watching the support list, when we think we've fixed it we will 
say so in a new build announcement.
 
 Probably a bug: please report: 1 peers forcibly disconnected due to not
 acknowledging packets.
 
 1 of your peers are having severe problems (not acknowledging packets
 even after 10 minutes). This is probably due to a bug in the code.
 Please report it to us at the bug tracker at

[freenet-support] New windows updater script, recent chaos

2008-11-22 Thread Matthew Toseland
We have a new update.cmd (command line updater script for Windows). If your 
Windows-based node won't start, please run update.cmd (in the folder Freenet 
is installed in, from a command line), and hopefully it will resolve the 
problem. You will need to manually start Freenet after the update succeeds 
(e.g. via the Start Freenet command on the start menu), because it only 
restarts Freenet if it's not actually running.

I'm sorry for the disruption, we've had a series of catastrophic bugs to deal 
with, some of which were long-standing but only became a problem recently due 
to other changes. Some of these resulted in downloading corrupted updates. 
Apart from that, we've had to make a series of changes to freenet-ext.jar, 
and unfortunately we only have partial support for updating it, this again 
resulted in nodes not starting up. We have now fixed update.cmd, so at least 
the last-resort manual update will work; most of the time automatic update 
will work, but unfortunately it is currently possible for the node to update 
the main jar but not the ext jar, and thus break; this will also be fixed 
soon. The actual data corruption bug has been fixed in 1181, a better fix 
will be in 1182, and a long-term solution to the underlying problems (with a 
back-compatible metadata change) hopefully in 1183.

This is mostly my fault ... sorry.

 That looks strange.

I have got that exact same warning in my logs as well. It has been like this 
for quite some time.

Well, first of all, all of freenet's dependencies, including this
wrapper utility, are bundled conveniently in freenet-ext.jar. So you
likely originally launched it with the older 3.2.3 wrapper, and later
one freenet-ext got updated. Restarting the wrapper should get rid of
this message, though I don't think it's anything serious, since my
installation is still using 3.2.3.

Actually the installer installs 3.3.1 iirc, but we don't have a way
currently to update old installs.  I manually did mine.
