[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1474 is finally released!

2016-06-08 Thread Matthew Toseland
If your node does not update automatically, you may need to update it manually 
as described in my previous message. The simplest way to deal with the problem 
is to shut down Frost, FMS and Web of Trust and reboot and the auto-update 
should work given an hour or two.

Thanks to everyone involved in getting this build out in difficult 
circumstances!

=

Freenet 0.7.5 build 1474 is now available. This is an emergency bugfix release, 
hence I am releasing it rather than Steve while he is incapacitated. It fixes 
some important bugs, one of which is involved in the current attacks on Frost 
and Sone.

Summary of changes:

* Fix the Frostbite bug: if the node downloads a malicious key, this would 
cause the whole client layer to break. This is currently being actively used to 
attack Frost and Sone.
* Automatically upgrade nodes to use the minimum bandwidth limit if necessary. 
Some nodes were unable to start up because their bandwidth limit was too low. 
Apologies to anyone affected by this. Also, improve the logic that sets the 
per-second bandwidth limits from a monthly setting. Obviously, you should be 
very careful if using Freenet on a connection with a monthly transfer limit.
* Minor security improvements to the web interface.

If your node is unable to update because of the Frostbite bug, please turn off 
the affected applications (unload the Web of Trust and Sone plugins and shut 
down Frost), and then restart the node. It should pick up the update within a 
few hours. If it still doesn't work, the update.cmd or update.sh scripts may 
fix the problem, but they will access our website in a traceable manner.

Thank you for using Freenet!

[freenet-support] Build 1474 status and the Frostbite attack

2016-06-07 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet build 1474 has been partially released. It includes a critical bugfix
for the "Frostbite" bug: if you visit a malicious key, downloads can stop
working. This is being actively exploited on Frost and Sone/WoT. Unloading
WoT / turning off Frost and restarting the node should make it work again.
Unfortunately the official release manager Steve is indisposed, and nextgens
and I are still working on completing the release; it should be inserted
into the auto-update system tomorrow, and thus "officially" released.

The build has been released as far as the website, so new installs will be
1474. Sorry about this, we will try to make our recovery procedures more 
robust in future... Please relay this message to FMS etc if possible, thanks!

You can manually update to the new build as follows:

Option 1: Use update.sh or update.cmd

This is not anonymous, in that it downloads the jar file over HTTPS from our
server, so anyone listening could tell that you run Freenet. Also there
have been some reported bugs (one problem with update.sh was fixed just by
running it again, otherwise contact #freenet on irc.freenode.net - note that
this is also not anonymous).

Option 2: Download the jar from Freenet on a working node and replace them.

First, download the following key:
CHK@jCVrtDlDgly4kqNRPAH4o7j16I5Fcy39ka6Qz2~NOko,kbxLQ-wHV4S8YgPUme3y9HKYopc1FWeEMUaZ~zDeSqM,AAMC--8/freenet-build01474.jar

Signature is here (if you have gnupg and my pubkey):
CHK@~gTf8kWGI0X34XOI~pI-hagrddxzUJdbPIk20nYoLjs,a7SNdm2Sq7u3sOwjX5GyVkitpR8J92~VGdO~tSynLto,AAMC--8/freenet-build01474.jar.sig

Now shut down the node.

Open wrapper.conf in a text editor. 
There should be a line that says something like:
wrapper.java.classpath.1=freenet.jar.new

If it says freenet.jar.new then change it to freenet.jar. 
If it says freenet.jar then don't do anything.

Now replace freenet.jar with the jar you just downloaded from Freenet.

 The Freenet team is very happy to announce the stable release of
 Freenet 0.7.5 build 1468.



 *Important notes*: downgrading from build 1468 is not supported; if you
 want to go back to build 1467 without losing the upload and download
 queues, *before* upgrading, back-up the following files and
 directories: master.keys, persistent-temp-*/, and node.db4o (see
 https://wiki.freenetproject.org/Program_files ). Please note that
 running transfers will be restarted from scratch too. A reminder to
 those testing auto-update to 1468-pre4: please restore your auto-update
 key to the default. One way to do this is to stop Freenet, remove the
 node.updater.URI line from freenet.ini, and start Freenet again.



 In this release, the way Freenet stores data locally has changed
 drastically by no longer using the now-deprecated db4o object storage.
 It is replaced with the product of toad's summer of work - a custom
 on-disk format that is much more robust against corruption and more
 efficient.



 * Existing unfinished downloads and uploads will be imported to a new
   format, which requires restarting them from the beginning.

 * Space for downloads is now all allocated at the start, so machines
   very low on disk space may run out, which causes downloads to
   temporarily fail until more space is available.

 * CHKs will change due to metadata bugfixes.

 * Some unofficial plugins will need to be updated because of API
   changes. Sone already works, as do all official plugins.

 * The queue format changes should make it extremely rare to lose the
   entire queue: the impact of corruption will almost always be
   localized.

 * Multi-container / site uploads can now be persistent, making it more
   practical to upload large sites.

 * Passworded physical security is now much stronger. (Full-disk
   encryption is still preferable.)



 * The Windows installer now defaults to starting Freenet on login.

 * There is a new Windows tray app with some useful features that is
   included with new installations. [0] If you are using the existing
   Windows tray app you can download the new one here. [1] No need to put
   it in a specific directory - it will try the default installation
   location and prompt if it can't find it.



 * The list of download keys moved from downloads/listFetchKeys.txt to
   downloads/listKeys.txt.

 * A list of upload keys is now available at uploads/listKeys.txt



 * Gantros' index is now in the default bookmarks. It uses the same
   software as Enzo's index, which is no longer updated.



 * The obsolete and deprecated XMLLibrary and XMLSpider plugins are no
   longer officially supported. They will still load for those who have
   them added, but are no longer shown on the plugin page.

 * In the interests of releasing this build more quickly, the new
   version of FlogHelper does not support exporting and importing backups
   from the web UI. The old backup code did not work with the new Freenet
   version after removing db4o. People can instead back up
   plugins.floghelper.FlogHelper files in the plugin-data directory.
   These can be dropped into the directory after unloading FlogHelper to
   restore a backup.

 * ThawIndexBrowser works again. Thanks saces!



 * Fred translations are updated.



 * Add two seed nodes, one sponsored by meshnet.pl - the Polish
   radio/meshnet darknet users group, and another run by ArneBab. Thanks!

 * Update existing seed node references.





 Thank you for using Freenet!

 Hello,

 after running freenet for years 24x7 on standard PCs I'm searching a
 different suitable platform (e.g. concerning performance, power
 consumption).

 Found this list of single-boarders:

 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_single-board_computers

 Are there any reports from freenetters on the ODROID-family?
 What you should keep in mind in when picking your board of choice:
 - Freenet needs a reasonably powerful CPU. Multicore is a big plus,
 since Freenet is threaded heavily.
IMHO the big issue here isn't horsepower, it's not having the thread
priorities hack library. This is particularly a problem on ARM.  Freenet
doesn't use that much CPU except when it's doing download decoding etc,
or when there's no good JVM???
 - Freenet needs *lots* of RAM (don't even think about 512MiB boards).
 I'd go for one with 2GiB, though 1GiB may work just fine when Freenet
 is configured conservatively and without WoT/Sone/…
512MB should be sufficient without WoT/Sone, no?
 - Freenet will (at least in its current state) be quite heavy on
 (random) I/O, up to *very* heavy when using plugins such as WoT.

 I've been thinking about running Freenet on one of those cheap Android
 TV sticks that can be had from China for about €35. I still haven't
 made my final decision on that, though: not all seem to accept custom
 Linux installation equally well.
That sounds interesting.
 Please keep us informed on what you end up using and how it works out for you.

  I'm considering in running a Freenet node, but I don't have much

  That should be enough. I run it with 300 or 400 megs. Of course,
  that'll only leave you with about 100 for the rest of your daemons,
  which should be enough if you don't run a graphical environment

 OK, thanks a lot. Yes I don't run a graphical enviroment, and it
 will be
 a Freenet dedicated server, so no other large processes.
 Any suggestions in the amount of disk space destinated to Freenet?

 Thanks in advance.
 Sebas

 As much as possible, It will go with a gig or less but if you want to
 help the network then id say give it as much as you can afford.
 Be aware that resizing the datastore can result in data loss, so try not
 to change it to often

 Yes, that's my idea, to give as much as disk space as possible. I make
 the question because I thought it could be a relationship between the
 amount of disk space and the consumption of RAM (for example 40 GiB
 not recommended dor 512 MiB of RAM).
There is, yes. The setup wizard will use this when recommending the
default store size when you install.

Technically: 4 bytes per slot in RAM, three slots for ~ each 35KB
(32KB+~300 bytes + 1K + 1K + 1K).

 Thanks again.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1456

2013-09-16 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1456 is now available. This build is riskier than most but 
I have tested it fairly extensively. Please let me know if you have any 
difficulties updating. Also see the first item below.
Changes include:
- Automatically update the wrapper binaries on linux/mac systems (other than 
Gentoo). This should fix a major bug on Linux where after updating the node can 
get stuck in a loop until it is manually restarted (or the computer is 
rebooted). This is a lot more work than it sounds because we need to replace a 
whole bunch of files at once, then restart the wrapper (not just the node).
- An important bugfix to the transport layer, should improve bandwidth usage on 
fast connections, this is especially obvious when transferring files between 
nodes (e.g. from the node-to-node text messaging system, click on a Friend and 
send a file).
- Download the latest version of update.sh, and make it executable. The updater 
was downloading an old, broken version of update.sh, and was not making it 
executable. This is the last-resort manual update script for linux/mac.
- Various bugfixes for the updater.
- Make node references more robust, any line which contains e.g. spaces will be 
base64 encoded, so passing noderefs via e.g. IRC/instant messaging should be 
significantly more reliable.
- Turn off NLM when upgrading from 1455 or earlier. It's broken at the moment.
- Config fixes. This *might* change your settings for SSL, load management and 
file locations (as previous fixes in these areas were being ignored).

This build does not implement updating the wrapper binaries on Windows. That 
will be implemented in a future build, thanks to romnGit's update helper tool 
for Windows. Most of the code needed is already present in this build though.

Thank you for using Freenet!

 Freenet already installed!Please uninstall first or choose another directory!
 What do I do now?

How exactly did you install it? From the exe on the website, or using the Java 
installer?

More details on the download page on the website.

Does C:\Program Files\Freenet (or C:\Program Files (x86)\Freenet) exist?

 Hi there i was wondering if freenet has a uninstaller for windows and how 
 well it uninstalls itself i would like to try it out on windows i did a test 
 environment on a ubuntu live usb and liked it and so i would lie to run it on 
 my windows. but if it acts up on me i would like to uninstall it and not have 
 to mess with reg keys and leftover stuff. please get back to me thank you 
 very much and god bless, 

The uninstaller works fine, from Control Panel as with any other app on 
Windows. You should shut down Freenet from the system tray icon first however.

It will remove all files and registry keys AFAIK, but I haven't checked this. 
Certainly it removed all files. It can't eradicate every last trace from your 
system e.g. deleted files that might be recovered, your browser cache etc; this 
is out of scope, there are third party tools that might be able to.

Good luck with Freenet! Thanks!

Any chance of trying a different AV? E.g. a demo version? Just to confirm that 
this is in fact an AV-related problem, you can go back to BitDefender 
afterwards?

Sorry, but we have a limited amount of Windows expertise. :|

 Just because you've previously used the same AV doesn't necessarily mean it's 
 not an AV problem - the files may be different if you've reinstalled, any 
 config you set to let it run may be different etc.

Just because you've previously used the same AV doesn't necessarily mean it's 
not an AV problem - the files may be different if you've reinstalled, any 
config you set to let it run may be different etc.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1455

2013-08-31 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1455 is now available. Please let me know if you have any 
problems upgrading, or run into any other bugs or regressions. The major 
changes are:
- The web interface now sends Content-Security-Policy headers to web browsers. 
This was designed to prevent cross-site-scripting attacks and provides an extra 
layer of protection against browser exploits and web-bugs. Note that you may 
have to enable Javascript support on Configuration - Web interface if you 
use plugins which use Javascript (e.g. FlogHelper, Sone). Note to plugin 
authors: Please do not use sendReplyHeader(..., Date). There are several new 
sendReplyHeader* methods, sendReplyHeader() without a Date should be fine for 
most generated content.
- New encryption for on-disk temporary buckets (temporary files used by 
non-persistent downloads), when physical security level is not LOW.
- Plugin data is now stored in separate files on disk rather than in 
node.db4o[.crypt]. So it won't be lost when the database is corrupted. Note 
that this only affects a few plugins, notably FlogHelper (and Library if you 
have customised your indexes list).
- New version of the Library plugin, with a new search index. (Sadly by the 
same person as the last one)
- Minor French translation update (thanks romnGit, who is also working on a new 
Windows installer).

Thanks for using Freenet!

 Hello Matthew,
 
 Since I am on macand even if Freenet had been a bit in holidays
 recently, I started it again,
 and it seemed to work fine. But even so, there was the mention of an
 error, so, I put it of again and started anew.
 everything seems OK now.
 here is the version:
 
 And here are (as joint files) the two last logs (today) since I'm
 not sure which has the proper indication.

Thanks! I need wrapper.log though. This is on a newly installed 1454 node? Did 
you use JWS or the installer jar?

It was a typo in a script. I've uploaded a fixed installer. I'd still 
appreciate testing though. Does it work, does it complain about not running in 
the wrapper / does the wrapper.log show an error about this at the beginning?

There was a bug in the OS/X installer. I have now fixed it. Please uninstall 
your existing copy of Freenet, then download the following file:
https://downloads.freenetproject.org/alpha/installer/new_installer_offline_1454.jar

You should be able to click on the file to install it. Let me know if that 
doesn't work.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1454

2013-08-27 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1454 is now available. Please let me know if there are any 
problems updating. This is a bugfix build:
- Fix a major memory leak (mostly in the client layer).
- Fix a NullPointerException when unloading some plugins.
- Freemail 0.2.4.2.
- Minor fix to fproxy's use of temporary files when handling POSTs (i.e. almost 
anything using buttons).
- Comments, javadocs.

Thank you for using Freenet!

   Hi. I read the FAQ question that says I don't want my node to be

   My question is, if I use freenet, how can I tell if my computer has
   such content installed on my computer, and how to get rid of it when
   I stop using Freenet? Thanks.
  
  To answer your immediate question, you cannot - practically speaking -
  tell what content is stored on your computer specifically. Doing so
  requires a concerted effort and the use of tools that could - but to
  my knowledge do not - exist. Even then, you would be unable to
  identify everything. You can remove the content Freenet has stored on
  your computer by uninstalling Freenet.
 
 Hasn't someone created some kind of chunk/CHK filter already? (For
 filtering local content?) And assuming someone else bothers to maintain
 a database of undesirable stuff, that would suffice. Of course, it
 would also severely compromise the anonymity of the undesirables (the
 people), which defeats the purpose of Freenet. Which is to say, it's not
 that it's technically impossible to do this, it's that we believe in
 free speech.
 
 Anyone is free to fork Freenet to only allow desirable content. Good
 luck.

There are lots of problems with a blacklist:

Unless they were a government agency it would be legally very difficult to 
maintain a blacklist, since they'd need to download the full metadata in order 
to block all the blocks, and probably they'd need to download the full data to 
check whether it is what it is claimed to be (which makes them vulnerable to 
prosecution for posession, not to mention various other obvious issues). Of 
course you could block stuff by downloading the metadata without checking it, 
but this would be easily exploited for censorship of anything you don't like. 
And according to EFF's advice, you'd probably have to block ALL illegal 
content, not just child porn. And anyone using the blacklist would have to 
trust the person who publishes it - especially as the blacklist would have to 
not include the full CHKs but only enough information to match them, without 
being able to decrypt them.

A whitelist is possible maybe. But it'd have to be a separate network, and it'd 
be enormously, and dangerously, centralised.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1453 (and installer changes)

2013-08-24 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1453 is now available. Please let us know if you have any 
problems updating. This includes Web of Trust version 13, which has some major 
improvements including much better support for recovering old identities from 
backups, and some minor bugfixes and robustness improvements for the updater, 
but the main change is to the installers:

We now use an up to date version of the wrapper in both the Windows installer 
and the Linux/Mac installer. For new installs, this should fix some of the 
antivirus problems on Windows (notably issues with Freenet taking ages to 
restart and sometimes not succeeding at all on Kaspersky). 

It should also improve the stability problems on Linux when updating, where 
Freenet would download a new build and then constantly restart without ever 
successfully updating. If you see that bug on an old node, the correct fix is 
to shut down the node manually and start it up again (./run.sh stop; ./run.sh 
start). If you see it on a new node (installed at 1453 or later), please let us 
know that the bug isn't fixed! 

Finally, the Unix/Mac installer now supports a few more platforms, notably 
FreeBSD on x86 (32 and 64), Linux on Itanium, and Linux on ARM (both versions). 
This is not full support as we don't have the (optional but important) native 
libraries for these platforms yet, but it should install, run, and auto-update 
without too much trouble, rather than having to run without the wrapper. Let me 
know if you want any other platforms, see the download page for JSW for what we 
can easily support.

None of this applies to existing installs. romnGit is working on a tool to 
upgrade the wrapper on existing Windows installs, and upgrading it on Mac or 
Linux should be fairly straightforward, but is not implemented yet.

Thank you for using Freenet!

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1452

2013-08-19 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1452 is now available. Please let me know if you have any 
problems upgrading. Major changes:
- Auto-updater: Create wrapper.jar file (in wrapper\ on Windows, otherwise in 
.). On the next update this will be patched into the classpath at the 
beginning. This will allow us to update the wrapper, at least in new installs.
- Auto-updater: Update wrapper.conf to create an anchor file on older Windows 
nodes. This will be helpful in improving update.cmd and in updating the wrapper.
- Auto-updater: Various bugfixes and minor improvements to auto-update and 
Update Over Mandatory (the last resort update mechanism).
- Temporarily reinstate support for builds prior to 1422. This will be removed 
again soon, UOM backward compatibility should only be broken when we change the 
auto-update key.
- Fix a NullPointerException breaking some plugins when rendering menus.
- Add some more code documentation (javadocs), especially at package level.

Thanks for using Freenet!

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1451

2013-08-13 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1451 is now available. Please let me know if there are any 
problems updating (the auto-updater should automatically update the 
Bouncycastle jar as well as the freenet jar). This build is mandatory on the 
28th of August (due to the change to parsing of noderefs added via the web 
interface). Changes include:
- Update Bouncycastle to version 1.49.
- Allow base64 encoding in noderefs. This will be used in future for more 
robust noderefs. (Sorry I thought I'd deployed this in a previous build)
- Better MIME type handling.
- Minor web interface fixes.
- New versions of Library of FlogHelper, remove Freetalk for now.
- Connections pages now show the FOAF locations separately after the main table.
- French translation update.
- Various minor internal improvements / code cleanups.

Plugin authors should note that there were some changes in the web interface in 
recent builds that might break your plugins, in particular POST requests need 
the formPassword (CSRF token); you can disable this (to provide a confirmation 
box) by implementing Toadlet.allowPOSTWithoutPassword().

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1450

2013-07-25 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1450 is now available. Please upgrade. This build will be 
mandatory on August 2nd.

Major changes:
- Fix a web interface problem affecting updates (see below), but also some 
other functionality (e.g. removing files downloaded to temporary space).
- Remove some dubious back-compatibility code introduced in 1449, which was 
only there to ensure that you could downgrade to 1448 or earlier and then 
upgrade to 1449+ without problems. This means that downgrading before 1448 is 
not a good idea especially if you have darknet peers.
- Remove support for an old connection setup protocol introduced in 2011 
(connection setup negotiation type 7). Neg type 8 was added by nextgens in 
October 2012, so virtually all active nodes should have it by now. Note that if 
nodes are so old that they don't have negType 8, even update over mandatory 
won't work as of this build: We only keep back compatibility for 6 months. This 
simplifies our code and improves performance and security because we will now 
only use ECDH, not classic Diffie-Hellman.
- Russian translation update.
- New nodes will have their persistent tempfile folder as persistent-temp not 
persistent-temp-[port number]. This is not changed on old nodes yet, as it 
would involves changing filenames in the client layer database.

There was a small problem in the auto-update code in 1448 and 1449: If 
Automatically install new versions was turned off, the confirmation button 
shown when a new version has been downloaded would fail to do anything, so 
updating wouldn't work. If this affects you please just turn that config option 
(on http://127.0.0.1:/config/node.updater) to true until the update has 
been deployed (you might need to restart the node once). Sorry about that.

Thanks for using Freenet! Credits:

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1449

2013-07-20 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1449 is now available, and will be mandatory in a week. 
Please let me know if you have any trouble upgrading. Note that it also makes 
1448 mandatory a few days early, so if you haven't upgraded since 1447 you may 
need to do so to stay on the network.

The major change in this build is a new connection setup protocol. It should be 
fully backwards compatible with previous nodes, but please tell me if there are 
any problems.

Thanks!

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1443

2013-05-21 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1443 is now available. Please let me know if there are any 
problems (with updating or with the new build). Changes include:
- Increase the maximum opennet peer limit to 100. IMHO this is an acceptable 
tradeoff between a vulnerable, over-centralised network (there are at least 
5000 nodes online at any time), versus allowing nodes with fatter connections 
to contribute more.
- Add vwoodzell's FCP interface for the content filter.
- Minor logging fix.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1442

2013-05-14 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1442 is now available. Please let me know if you have any 
trouble upgrading; your Freenet node should update itself automatically. This 
build will be mandatory on the 21st of May. Major changes:
- Process connection setup messages on a separate thread to the one that 
handles packets from already connected peers. This should make connections more 
stable, especially on seednodes, ARM nodes and when there are CPU usage 
problems.
- Increase the maximum number of locations that a peer can tell us about to 
110. This does NOT actually increase the maximum number of opennet peers yet, 
that will be in 1443.
- Update update.sh and update.cmd via the auto-updater.
- Minor optimisations in auto-update.
- Write a backup of the old main jar to freenet.jar.bak when updating on Linux 
(on Windows, we alternate between freenet.jar and freenet.jar.new).
- Paranoid code to try to prevent the problems in 1439 from happening again.
- Increase the startup timeout for waiting for entropy to 1 hour, explain the 
situation a bit better.
- Support missing the ; at the end of CSS styles (e.g. in HTML).
- Fix changing the bindTo address for fproxy breaking the web interface 
completely when bad addresses are entered (same for FCP too) - bug #5674.
- Refactoring, mostly in client layer, also some logging stuff in crypto code.
- Trivial optimisations, cleanups, remove old probe messages, comments in the 
code etc.

[freenet-support] ***FlogHelper anonymity breach*** and Freenet 0.7.5 build 1441

2013-05-08 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1441 is now available. Please upgrade, the changes are 
minimal but include a critical security fix for FlogHelper. If you have used 
FlogHelper and have published flogs with the safe backups option enabled, 
your hostname is visible to anyone who downloads flog.db4o. Sorry about this, 
we should have been more careful (it's an information leak inside db4o...). A 
more detailed warning will show up if you use it. Note that this may not affect 
you even if you do have a FlogHelper flog with backups turned on, if it hasn't 
been updated recently and the backup file is large enough not to be in the main 
container (in which case it may have fallen out).

Changes:
- Update the SSL certificate for the last resort update scripts.
- Catch more db4o errors on startup.
- Library v27.
- FlogHelper v29.
- Fix an NPE in non-persistent USK inserts.

ANONYMITY BREACH: Your flog ${title} has leaked your hostname ${hostname} 
for your WoT identity ${author}, in the backup file flog.db4o. That means all 
your flogs, Sone posts, Freetalk posts, Freemail and anything else using that 
identity can be connected to ${hostname}. You could keep using this identity 
but bear in mind that it may be compromised, or you could delete the identity. 
Files on Freenet cannot be deleted, but if you upload a new version the old one 
may eventually become inaccessible, although somebody may have downloaded it 
already. You can delete the identity or create a new one on the Community menu 
under Own anonymous identities. In case of any questions please contact us 
securely on Freenet Messaging System (FMS) board Freenet.

This is because of a severe (but trivial) bug in 1439 causing startup to fail 
if there are darknet peers. Please upgrade to 1440. You can do this by either:

1) Run update.sh (or update.cmd)
This should work for 99% of people.
2) If this doesn't work, update your update.sh or update.cmd from 
https://downloads.freenetproject.org/alpha/update/ then try again.
3) If this still doesn't work, download the jar manually from 
https://downloads.freenetproject.org/alpha/freenet-build01440.jar and save it 
over freenet.jar (it might be freenet.jar.new, you may need to check in 
wrapper.conf).
4) Otherwise something is seriously broken - ask for help or reinstall.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1432 is now available

2013-02-01 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1432 is now available. Please let me know if you have any 
trouble upgrading, your Freenet node should update automatically. This build 
contains most of the remaining changes in the next branch, so it is more or 
less caught up now. A lot of changes, but most of them not very important. I 
have some more interesting stuff on branches...

Changes:
- Show IP and country of peers even in simple mode.
- Fix MIME type autodetection in site uploads.
- Minor transport layer fixes.
- Minor improvements to the port forward detection code.
- Various bugfixes related to using the default character set rather than 
specifying one. The worst one might have caused some compressed keys to break 
(in the unlikely case that the default charset isn't ASCII-based).
- Fix an opennet bug that might prevent a node from starting up if its peers 
file was corrupted.
- Minor changes to the code handling the auto-update revocation key, and the 
messages shown in this case. (The revocation key indicates that the auto-update 
system is blown; hopefully we'll never need to use this code! :) )
- Lots of code cleanups and minor optimisations. (mostly from findbugs)
- Various minor bugfixes that probably shouldn't happen but appeared in 
findbugs.
- Minor synchronization fixes (I don't think these can cause deadlocks)

Please let the developers know if there are any problems, in particular if you 
find a bug.

Re: [freenet-support] Old version of wrapper maxmemory 4096M

 I tried giving freenet 5G of RAM on a 64-bit system but 
 noticed (via the command line visible with ps -f) that it

 an old version of wrapper (Java Service Wrapper) (version 
 3.2.3, 2006-10-16).
 
 The 4096M limit was removed as of wrapper version 3.3.0 
 according to its doc/revisions.txt.
 
 I notice that the contrib-staging's source.properties file 
 indicates pulling wrapper version 3.3.5, however this does 
 not seem to have become applied to the release.

Yes, updating the wrapper is problematic, it's something that we haven't solved 
yet. Even including a newer version of the wrapper on newly installed nodes 
runs into problems because the wrapper jar is inside freenet-ext.jar.

We will fix this eventually, it will help with stability on Windows, but we 
haven't yet.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1431

2013-01-26 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1431 is now available. Your node should update 
automatically, if not please let me know. It will be mandatory on the 2nd of 
February. The main changes in this build are bugfixes for announcement, one of 
which bugs goes back to 2007 and may have been significant. It will be 
interesting to see whether this improves the currently rather poor opennet 
bootstrapping (announcement) performance...

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1430

2013-01-24 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1430 is now available. Please upgrade; most users' nodes 
should update automatically, let me know if this doesn't work.

This build includes lots of changes: (non-exhaustive list)
- Various improvements fixes to (non-persistent) freesite uploads. It will 
detect when there are too many files in a folder, but this should not happen in 
practice unless you try to upload a site with 2000+ files in a single folder. 
Redirects work. Some unofficial plugins may be affected by an API change 
(FlogHelper has been updated).
- Various minor crypto cleanups and optimisations.
- Lots of code cleanups and optimisations. (In theory CPU usage should be a bit 
lower)
- Don't show hidden files in the upload a file from disk browser.
- Handle container loops better (somebody on FMS had this bug?)
- Various improvements to handling of temporary files (both in memory and on 
disk).
- Various minor improvements to IP addresses and country detection code, and 
one-connection-per-IP logic.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1428 (sorry folks!)

2013-01-17 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1428 is available, please upgrade, it will be mandatory on 
January 31st. This is a bugfix to a bugfix: 1426 accidentally changed the store 
policy (that is, the algorithm that decides whether to put an insert in 
long-term storage), 1427 tried to fix it but broke it severely (meaning that 
inserts would not get stored in the store, only in the cache), and 1428 finally 
fixes this.

To answer the obvious questions: Firstly, this is my fault, as the Release 
Manager I should have picked it up in review when releasing. Secondly, 
Eleriseth wrote the code, but since Eleriseth wrote at least half of the code 
in recent builds, including some impressive cleanups and optimisations, and 
since (s)he found the bug and thus triggered 1428, we remain indebted to 
him/her, our most productive anonymous volunteer developer. :) Thirdly, this 
would not have been caught by any short-term testing, nor even by testing a 
pre-release build. However I may be able to add a test that would find such 
bugs. Fourthly, part of the reason for the problems (1425/1426) is that there 
is a huge amount of code on the development next branch, some of which is 
relatively risky, which I've been trying to release. Releasing it all at once 
is too risky: For example, we probably would have missed this bug until it had 
done real damage! However I intend to release most of the remaining changes on 
another build next week.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1426

2013-01-15 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1426 is now available. Your Freenet should upgrade 
automatically, but please let me know if you have any problems. This includes 
many changes from the next development branch, but there is much more to come 
in 1427. Sorry if your changes didn't make it, I tried to include only low-risk 
and already-well-tested changes. Changes include:
- New versions of FlogHelper, Spider and XMLSpider (FlogHelper includes new 
features; all are fixed to load correctly again)
- Substantial reduction in CPU usage for symmetric encryption (connections, 
SSKs and older CHKs)
- Various cleanups and minor optimisations, in crypto and the client layer and 
elsewhere, including a client layer memory leak.
- Russian translation update.
- Make Freetalk less visible, since it's not really working at the moment.
- Minor fixes for startup.
- Commit slightly less often (fewer disk seeks hopefully), due to writing 
statistics.
- Fix some bugs in the Ticker, could have caused wierd problems.
- Use less memory for IP-to-country detection and detect the country of some 
tunneled IPv6 addresses.
- Fix a bug which might have broken very old downloads.
- Make the firefox keyword.url hack work.

(1425 was skipped due to a bug)

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1424

2013-01-07 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1424 has now been released. Please upgrade. Lots of 
changes, including:
- Don't include hidden files in folder uploads (can be overridden by FCP).
- Backward compatibility with old Infocalypse repositories, and other minor 
MIME type related improvements.
- Fix deadlocks and other problems when prefetching is enabled in fproxy.
- Updated, working KeyUtils.
- Make Freetalk a bit less recommended since it's not very usable at the 
moment, link to FSNG on the chat page, and update editions.
- Russian and Japanese translation updates.
- Various minor internal changes, cleanups and sanity checks.
- Require a minimum of 5kB/sec bandwidth, and various fixes for the setup 
wizard (bandwidth and monthly limits).
- Partial support for MathML.
- Tidier generated HTML for fproxy pages (no visible change).

There are lots more changes on the next branch, many of which are more 
experimental and will need more testing. I will try to get some of that out 
within the next couple of weeks. Sorry if your contributions didn't make it 
today, they will be in another build soon!

PS Sorry it took so long. I did put out a test build a month ago; nobody gave 
any feedback. :|

Re: [freenet-support] Web of Trust crashing FN

 Just loading the Web of Trust plugin and nothing else and leave it

 This has happened several times, every time I loaded it and every time 
 the tedious slot filters or what are they called, rebuild follows after 
 FN suddenly losing all its peers. So it looks like FN crashes due to WOT.
 
 Running java 6 because of the issues with 7, win xp, java takes 50-98% 
 cpu with Weboftrust loaded, without 15-30%. Fetching WOT over Freenet, 
 having left it in cache.
 Plugin-container.exe eats 296 MB of memory, java.exe 370, the machine 
 has 4 gig of which half is used at the moment.
 
 Is this a known problem? Could my WebOfTrust.db4o be corrupt causing 
 this, any way to check/repair?

WoT is quite heavy. I suggest you increase the amount of memory Freenet is 
allowed in wrapper.conf.

  For a start, you can check your wrapper.log file -- perhaps output a
  thread dump when you think it's broken (via the web/fproxy interface, in
  the Statistics section, Generate a Thread Dump) -- the output will
  also get dumped into wrapper.log. If none of that is informative, you
  can enable more detailed logging in the Logs section. Be careful to
  scrub any logs[1] of sensitive information before sending them.
 
 I send some part of the logs. The sensitive information could be the
 ips of the strangers which i am connected. Otherwise the logs are big,
 but tell me if can I fully send them, and if strangers ips are
 considered sensitive information.
 
 At the moment I disable WoT and FreeTalk. 
 
 Thanks.
 
Just Freetalk errors. Turn off Freetalk since it's not working anyway. Does 
Freenet work reliably without Freetalk loaded?

 You appear to have the Freetalk plugin loaded. Maybe that is the problem 
 for you as it's severely broken, but alas still recommended.
 
 Also, since build 1422 there are problems with nodedb4o getting 
 corrupted. It's said that's due to java 7, but plz check your 
 wrapper.log for error messages on it.

It seems to correlate with the phase of the moon. /sarcasm

Seriously, node.db4o self-corrupting is a known problem and people have said 
it's connected to all sorts of things - and there is no reliable connection to 
anything. It certainly happened before java 7.

If you can reliably get it to corrupt itself quickly, it might be possible to 
debug it.

 The fproxy could intially provide initial html code to test for the
 presence of javascript / flash / java, etc, but it would only be a
 bandaid solution to this broad problem. Ideally, you also don't want
 the browser to be able to do dns resolution, or access anything outside
 of tcp:127.0.0.1:. Some (weird) people might also insist on
 enabling javashit, so it would probably end up requiring a zillion new
 preference settings to appease each person's individual security
 requirements. People working inside virtual machines that already
 provide proper network-level security will also probably not want any
 of this clutter.

Debatable point. If you can request and insert you can bust the target's 
anonymity.
 
 I think a separate list/project should be started to handle freenet
 environments (special freenet distros, freenet VMs, freenet hardware
 appliances, etc)... separate from the freenet program itself.

 Doesn't appear to be a technical challenge to me but I'm not one to

We tried to do this with a browser profile for a while. Unfortunately it caused 
severe problems, including permanently breaking people's Firefox'es.

We should allow configuring the browser we launch. But it *is* easy enough to 
implement it yourself - just install another browser, and use  that to access 
Freenet (go to http://127.0.0.1:/ ).

More sophisticated solutions have been suggested e.g. we could bundle a copy of 
Portable Firefox, or even implement our own UI including browser via e.g. 
XULRunner...

Not likely any time soon. Technically it may be feasible but practically 
speaking Freenet uses 20GB/month+ of transfer, so even if we made it work it 
would either cost you a lot of money or make your mobile internet provider 
rather upset.

Long term there are some ideas for transferring data from one mobile device to 
another.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1423

2012-11-15 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1423 is now available, please upgrade. This is a bugfix 
build. There is a lot more stuff waiting on the next branch, but that will need 
more testing. I will release 1424-pre1 later today, if you can possibly try it 
(update.cmd testing / update.sh testing) and *report whether it works*, that 
would be really helpful.

Changes in 1423:
- Fix a bug that might have caused connection setup to fail.
- Fix a bug that might have caused hashes to be reused too much, possibly 
causing all sorts of problems including corruption of inserted files. 
Fortunately this should have been fairly rare in practice.
- Fix a bug that could cause the setup wizard to break.
- New (fixed) version of KeyUtils plugin.
- Update default bookmarks.

Thanks to Eleriseth for finding the first two bugs!

- Allow loading the native libraries from the classpath (needed for packages).
- Don't show the img for a country flag if we don't have it on the 
connections page.
- Minor cleanups and improvements to a few config entries.

That does not make sense. That error is irrelevant. I assume it's the last

Apparently we use the same message when migrating to slot filters from bloom 
filters as we do when rebuilding because of an unclean shutdown. I have fixed 
this in the source, it will be included in the next build; we will use a 
different message if the .slotfilter file doesn't exist.

In your datastore/ folder you should have the following .slotfilter files, as 
well as other stuff:

CHK-cache.slotfilter
CHK-clientcache.slotfilter
CHK-store.slotfilter
PUBKEY-cache.slotfilter
PUBKEY-clientcache.slotfilter
PUBKEY-store.slotfilter
SSK-cache.slotfilter
SSK-clientcache.slotfilter
SSK-store.slotfilter

Do all these files exist? If so then it probably isn't migrating - it's 
probably rebuilding because of an unclean shutdown. In other words, Freenet has 
been killed by the wrapper because of taking too long to shut down, or you had 
a power cut, or pushed the power button or something.

wrapper.log may reveal whether Freenet is regularly having problems shutting 
down?

    how much memory is Freenet allowed in wrapper.conf?
   
   wrapper.java.maxmemory is set to 1095. I can find no other setting related

   Here's the entire file:

  Okay, add this line here:
  
  wrapper.java.additional.4=-Xloggc:freenet.loggc
  
  Then shut down and start up Freenet, and watch freenet.loggc. Are you seeing
  a lot of Full GC ?
 
 How much is a lot? After ~30 minutes of uptime, I get this:

Well each one lasts less than a seconf and they are happening much less than

= It's not a garbage collection issue.

I guess you could get a few more stack dumps and send me them? Make sure that 
it's using loads of CPU at the time.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1418

2012-10-09 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1418 is now available, please upgrade, it will be mandatory 
on the 30th of October (3 weeks). There are many changes, including:
- German and Japanese translation updates.
- Lots of minor tidy ups etc.
- Many internal changes to make hashtable exhaustion CPU DoS attacks impossible.
- New versions of several plugins, and better compatibility mode detection 
(used by some parts of KeyUtils).
- Changes relating to downloading filtered files, including a better warning 
message including the MIME type, and check for the file extension not matching 
the filtered MIME type.
- Extend startup timeouts while trying to gather entropy.
- Request UIDs are now per-type i.e. separate for CHK requests vs SSK inserts. 
This should fractionally improve security against some attacks. (This is why it 
is eventually mandatory)
- Lots of work on various themes, with several new variants.

Please let me know if you find any bugs! Also, please verify it with the verify 
scripts if you can. Thanks.

1419 is out. Sorry about that. The Connections page was broken by a combination 
of 1) me finally getting around to uploading an up to date IpToCountry.dat on 
releasing a build, 2) the creation of the country of South Sudan since the last 
version was downloaded, and 3) poor handling of unexpected country codes. #3 is 
a bug, it is now fixed.

Sorry for the unclear documentation. IP address override doesn't override the 
other detected IPs; this is intended. We only override it if you set bindTo as 
well. Of course you can't do that if you're e.g. on a static IP but behind a 
NAT. Usually bindTo is only used when there are multiple local internet 
connections and you only want Freenet to use one of them, in which case we 
should only advertise that address. Do you need a true ip address override that 
works even if you don't have a local inet interface?

 With the 1st stage of the rebuild taking 3 weeks, and 1416 becoming

 was supposed to be faster, so I set that and upgraded.  I let it run for 
 a bit and then did the math, it was still going to take 3 weeks.  CPU 
 and HDD were both practically idle.  I don't know what a resize does, 
 but it sure seems like there is a bug in there somewhere.

It sleeps 100ms after processing a batch of 128 blocks, to try to avoid severe 
performance effects on the rest of the system. Resize on startup turns this 
off, so *should* be slightly faster. I have no idea why it was so slow for you 
but I imagine it has to do with hard disk seeks being slow - the number of 
bytes transferred could well be relatively low even though the hard disk is 
seeking constantly.

Don't bother with update.cmd. Just leave Freenet on for a day or so and it

update.cmd from downloads.freenetproject.org/alpha/updater/.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1416

2012-09-26 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1416 is now available. Please upgrade, it will be mandatory 
in two weeks. The sole change in this build is a new encryption format for 
CHKs, which significantly improves security, in particular it makes it harder 
to identify that CHKs belong to the same splitfile. The code is fully backwards 
compatible, and you can even insert old-format keys with CompatibilityMode, but 
by default new inserts will use the new format. 

1416 will use Java's built in encryption JCA (or some faster provider you have 
installed) if available, but unfortunately this is usually broken in Sun/Oracle 
Java 1.6 due to export restrictions (you can fix it by installing the unlimited 
strength policy files). I believe Oracle 1.7 fixes this problem, but I'm not 
sure; OpenJDK appears to work fine, so you may want to upgrade to OpenJDK. In 
any case, we have built-in encryption for when the JCA doesn't work (but we'd 
like to get rid of it eventually, at least in the code handling new format 
CHKs). If you have a modern CPU and 64-bit Linux you can install NSS/JSS as a 
provider to reduce Freenet's CPU usage, but don't ask me how.

Thanks!

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1415

2012-09-24 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1415 is now available, please upgrade! (Unless you are 
using the verify-build script, in which case run that first). Changes include:
- A possible fix for the database corruption bug, in our database encryption 
layer that sits under db4o itself.
- Getting rid of support for the old bdb-index datastore. This should affect 
very few people, and will be handled automatically (albeit with some loss of 
keys).
- Getting rid of the old FNP connection layer protocol.
- Remove Built-By from the manifest in the jar file (helpful for people 
building themselves).
- Minor network level fixes.
- Various cleanups.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1412

2012-09-12 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1412 is now available. Please upgrade! It will be mandatory 
on the 18th, due to some minor security fixes. This is a major build including 
many changes:
- Request level fixes, partly to make the traceback attack more difficult.
- Many small fproxy and web interface fixes plus a 5MB limit rather than 2MB 
(separately configurable) when fproxy is showing a progress bar, and 
improvements to the too-old alerts.
- Various internal changes including to tracking the status of peers, some 
minor connection-level changes, cleanups, removing old code etc.
- Node to node text message fixes.
- Content filter: Always show the MIME type warning if we have both that and 
the too big warning. Then when the user accepts it they won't see the other 
warning. Also treat image/x-png as png.
- Client layer fix related to losing the data checksums.
- WebOfTrust 12.
- Turn off defrag on startup for now. This means your node.db4o will grow. But 
it may reduce the corruption problems.
- Minor memory limit config fix.
- Allow scope identifiers in IPv6 addresses.
- Various probe request fixes.

 build including many changes:
 - Request level fixes, partly to make the traceback attack more difficult.
 - Many small fproxy and web interface fixes plus a 5MB limit rather than 2MB 
 (separately configurable) when fproxy is showing a progress bar, and 
 improvements to the too-old alerts.
 - Various internal changes including to tracking the status of peers, some 
 minor connection-level changes, cleanups, removing old code etc.
 - Node to node text message fixes.
 - Content filter: Always show the MIME type warning if we have both that and 
 the too big warning. Then when the user accepts it they won't see the other 
 warning. Also treat image/x-png as png.
 - Client layer fix related to losing the data checksums.
 - WebOfTrust 12.
 - Turn off defrag on startup for now. This means your node.db4o will grow. 
 But it may reduce the corruption problems.
 - Minor memory limit config fix.
 - Allow scope identifiers in IPv6 addresses.
 - Various probe request fixes.

1413 is now available. Please upgrade to 1413 and not 1412. Due to a mistake on 
my part 1412 included some, but not all, of the recent work on the datastore. I 
had thought it didn't include any of it. So nodes with shrink on startup 
enabled could break and be unable to start if a shrink happened to be in 
progress. This is fixed in 1413.
Changes (including parts in 1412 not mentioned in the previous changelog):
- Significant disk I/O optimisation to the datastore: The datastore slot 
filters (*.slotfilter), tiny files that help the store to check whether we have 
a particular key and where to put it if we don't, are now written every 5 
minutes (configurable) rather than immediately on a write. This saves 
approximately one seek per written block, which could be several seeks per 
second. The writes every 5 minutes should not be disruptive, but please let me 
know if disk I/O appears to be heavier or lighter with this build.
- Minor changes to a couple of strings related to darknet.
- Add some comments to clarify the code.

Sorry!

Open your Freenet node's web interface:

Click on Switch to advanced mode at the bottom of the page.
Click on the Configuration menu and then the Opennet option.
It's the last option, at the end of the page. Change it.
Click Apply.

 - Send me your opennet noderef, which you can find here:
 http://127.0.0.1:/strangers/myref.fref

It's a file, you can download it and email me it.
 
 I have freenet running 24/7 (for years) but never use it.
 
 I cannot find where be a seednode? is in configuration file?
 
 How do I send you my noderef?

Not a good idea sorry.

Plus one thing I didn't mention: You need to have successfully forwarded your 
opennet port. Freenet will grumble about this if you haven't, and it should try 
to forward it automatically, but this doesn't always work.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1411

2012-09-03 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1411 is now available. Please upgrade, as this is an 
important security fix and will be mandatory on Wednesday.

This build fixes a serious bug posted in the following paper:
http://www.ee.hawaii.edu/~dong/traceback/1569649421.pdf
(“A Traceback Attack on Freenet,” submitted to IEEE INFOCOM 2013, Guanyu Tian 
et al)

In summary the attack would allow for tracing individual Freenet block requests 
back to their originator, often without even having to correlate multiple 
requests, by exploiting some architectural issues related to request UIDs.

Actually this build only 99% fixes it. There are cases where it might still 
work, but further work in the next build will eliminate those cases.

It also removes the old probe code. Sorry for all those who were watching the 
network size graphs; hopefully operhiem1 will be able to replace these. However 
the old probe code really gave away way more information on the network 
topology than is reasonable, we are safer without it.

It does not include the code on 1411-pre2, sadly. There are many changes under 
development. I will release a new pre- build soon but please use 1411 rather 
than 1411-pre2.

 Trying to use FCP to monitor Freenet via command line, and would be grateful

 how do they relate to the various values returned by the GetNode FCP message? 
 There are several NodeData message fields (numberOfSimpleConnected, 
 numberOfConnected, numberOfNotConnected) whose meaning is not totally clear, 
 and whose values do not seem to add up to the same as the counts on the HTML 
 pages.  More generally, are the various FCP message fields described anywhere 
 online? https://wiki.freenetproject.org/FCPv2 lists their names but doesn't 
 say what they mean...

This is not documented properly yeah. Best doc is the source, NodeStats.java 
exportVolatileFieldSet().

numberOfSimpleConnected is basically the number at the left - the total of 
CONNECTED and BACKED OFF. numberOfNotConnected is the rest - a variety of 
reasons why peers don't work. Many of the rest are the number of nodes in 
specific states (e.g. NEVER CONNECTED, DISABLED, TOO OLD, etc).

 Hmm. So it does seem as though my datastore was corrupted.
 Deleting it, and making my node create a new one got me up and
 running again. Thanks Steve!
 
 The odd thing is a bunch of us[1] have been getting this
 error / corruption since about the time build1409 came out. I
 sure hope it's just a freak coincidence :S.
 
 [1] https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=429716

Your _datastore_ was corrupted, not your node.db4o(.crypt)?! What
exactly did you do to get your node running again?
   
   Correct. The very first thing I tried (which usually worked before
   with db4o errors), was to delete my node.db4o.crypt file. That had
   no effect this time. Instead, deleting datastore/*, or starting
   with a fresh installation, with the wizard, got the node running.
   Drastic, I know. (Although, Tommy in the bug report mentioned he
   was able to reproduce the error even with a clean wizard
   installation :S.)
  
  That is not consistent with the error message you gave, which is
  clearly a db4o problem.
 
 Are you sure about that? Is there no way a corrupt datastore could
 corrupt the db4o file? What do you suppose created that db4o Abstract
 Method Error? (Considering the fact that deleting it, and letting
 freenet make a new one still caused it.)

No, this would definitely not be caused by a problem with the datastore, which 
is a very simple structure that does not store any code or complex objects. 
Whereas db4o could well cause such problems - either spontaneously, on defrag, 
on doing uploads, or ... Well we have lots of reports and we're not quite sure 
what to do about it yet. :(

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1410

2012-08-12 Thread Matthew Toseland
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1410 is now available. This build is mainly bugfixes and 
small changes for plugins related to fproxy (notably for pausb's fproxy 
rewrite, which should improve freenet's user interface significantly). It 
should not break anything, but let me know if it does. There are more changes 
planned for later next week. I suggest you upgrade, but it is not mandatory.

  I am looking to do an independent review/experience of freenet in a blog,
  however Ive tried to install it but its failed.
 
  Ive tried it recently on a windows 7 system which didnt work (I thought
  possibly because of kaspersky and windows 7 64 bit) and also today tried it
  on vista a 32bit system with webroot essentials and with firefox private
  browsing permanently checked.
 
  Firstly after installing it my security package webroot essentials picked
  it up as a suspect program and put in quarantine. I later restored the 3
  freenet programs/app which were in there,and tried start freenet and open
  freenet, but I got 'searching for freenet.exe or browse for it' and then I
  tried to run the correct freenet file in the folder but I got java virtual
  machine launcher and 'a java exception has occurred'. I tried two others I
  thought might be correct but it still didnt work.
 
  I then tried the 127.0.0.1: instructions and firefox couldnt find
  anything and that didnt work either. No system tray icon has appeared (or
  rabbit icon applet) either.
 
  I just wanted to see what this is all about (I heard about it on an talk
  radio station) and then get the hell out if I dont like the look of it, but
  it looks like its going to be difficult to get it to work/run at all.
 
  Can you help/advise me here as to what Im doing wrong or as to why this
  isnt installing or running properly?.
 
  Im not an advanced computer user  (maybe intermediate just about)

https://downloads.freenetproject.org/alpha/installer/FreenetInstaller-1409.exe.sig

Of course then you'd have to either trust our SSL cert (bad idea) or find a gpg 
trust path to my pubkey (hard!).

Re: [freenet-support] Can't access Freenet

 Hi,
 I've been on Freenet for over a year with no significant problems.
 For the last month, every time I try to access (Build 1407) it gets to
 one or two nodes, then after several minutes, goes to zero nodes and
 stays there.  I've tried reinstalling on the same disk, different
 disk, with the same results.

Is this behaviour new with build 1407?
 
 I'm on Windows 7 and the system configuration has not changed from
 when it was working.  Any guidance would be much appreciated.

This is very odd. First:
- Post your wrapper.log. You might want to look for anything incriminating 
(e.g. look for @ to find keys), and/or send it to me directly.
- Go to the Messages page and click on Switch to advanced mode. Copy what it 
says on the announcing alert. Is it managing to connect to any seednodes? Is it 
even trying to connect to them?
 
 Thanks.

Ewww.

The most likely reason for this is severe network congestion caused by e.g. 
other users of the connection, QoS etc, or very heavy CPU usage (check Task 
Manager). Are either of these true?

Are you still getting this problem? Sorry for it taking so long to deal with 
this ...

Re: [freenet-support] Freenet Tray/ Freenet will not connect to server

 Hello, 
 
   I have freenet installed on an encrypted hard drive and had moved all 
 components to the drive including the freenet tray app. I tried starting 
 freenet with my freenet tray and it will not connect. When I right click the 
 icon and select start freenet it does nothing. When I select open web 
 interface it gives me the message that the browser cannot connect to the 
 freenet server. I had previously kept a copy of the freenet tray on my 
 computer but have deleted it since, could this be my problem? I tried moving 
 the tray back to my computer and starting it from there with no luck. It 
 worked just yesterday, so I'm really confused. Any help you could provide 
 would be greatly appreciated.

If the path to the install has changed it's going to be easiest to reinstall it 
to the new path. Sorry. Also this means you may have to start Freenet manually, 
if you don't start the truecrypt container on boot-up.
 
 Thank you

 In my last email to you, I told you that the Freenet software on my computer

It should start on startup.

You can manually start it by opening a terminal, and doing:
cd Freenet
./run.sh start

However, it sounds like it's broken. You could send me your wrapper.log (in 
/home/my username/Freenet/wrapper/wrapper.log) to try to understand the 
problem.

You shouldn't need to run Freemail directly with java -jar. You should be able 
to just visit it from the Plugins page on Freenet, and create an identity there 
IIRC. Also there is a major update for Freemail pending, it should be in a new 
freenet release in a week or two.

I assume you are using 64-bit Windows? Unfortunately the current Freenet on 
Windows uses only the 32-bit version of Java. So you need to install the latest 
32-bit Java 1.6.
 
 you guys are going a great job

Thanks! Sorry it took so long to get to you.

 Hello -

 What do I do next?

That is very odd. Are you sure you actually installed Freenet? It should be 
installed in e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\Freenet ... There should be a menu 
folder, and within that items called Start Freenet or Open Freenet. Also in 
your system tray (bottom right hand of the screen, you may have to click on it 
to expand to see all the tiny icons), there should be an icon that looks like a 
rabbit...

It sounds like some unzipping software may have interfered with the install 
somehow ...

No, well, bootstrapping is slow, but it should work eventually.

Is Freenet still installed? What version is it running? (Bottom of the 
homepage, http://127.0.0.1:/ ).

If it's still disconnecting quickly, please wait for it to disconnect and then 
go to the Messages page, and click on the link at the bottom for advanced mode. 
Paste all the text on the page - I want to see whether it is announcing to the 
network.

Also, please send me your wrapper.log.

 Decided

I believe the cert update problem is fixed. Have you tried it recently?

Currently the launcher chooses Chrome if both are installed. The reasons are 
related to reliability issues with launching privacy mode from the command 
line. However, you can open freenet manually, or even create a link to open it, 
with http://127.0.0.1:/
