Describe the bug

Local subtensor node found out of sync this morning, with an error log like this:

2024-07-22 05:01:38 Evicting failed runtime instance error=Runtime panicked: Storage root must match that calculated.
2024-07-22 05:01:38 Block prepare storage changes error: Error at calling runtime api: Execution failed: Runtime panicked: Storage root must match that calculated.

Then restarted it and it was throwing tons of errors like this after the restart:

To Reproduce

Running local subtensor node on ryzen 7950x Debian with this:

cd ~/subtensor/
git fetch --all
git reset --hard origin/main
git checkout main
git pull
docker compose down
docker system prune --all
docker volume rm $(docker volume ls -q --filter name=sub*)
sudo ./scripts/run/subtensor.sh -e docker --network mainnet --node-type lite
# logs
docker logs -f --tail 10 subtensor-mainnet-lite

Expected behavior

No panick error logs

Screenshots

Environment

Linux Debian 12

Additional context

Node was up and running for a few days.

This morning at 5am EST, I tried btcli w balance command and saw outdated data so I inspected the subtensor logs.

I had this error in the logs:

2024-07-22 05:01:38 Evicting failed runtime instance error=Runtime panicked: Storage root must match that calculated.

After seeing that it was broken (didn't sync to the chain properly afterwards) I just restarted the node and then it had thousands of lines per second containing the error:

Similar to #635

[liho00]

same issue here +1

[alex-drocks]

This issue came back again after wiping my folders and using the rust based subtensor instead of docker 😦
Node breaks after a certain point 😦

I got the problem with a ryzen 7950x Debian using Docker subtensor (original issue) AND then wiped out disk to reinstall with Rust based subtensor also.

Just also found two other servers on different providers local subtensor out of sync.

All same cause

Facing the same problem

[tavurth]

This is a huge problem for us. We've been seeing this on our own subtensor node, and across many validators on the subnet, i.e. this is a bittensor-breaking issue which should be addressed ASAP to maintain the integrity of the entire chain.

So with that said, let's try to be constructive here:

1. Is there a known workaround?
2. Is there a known working commit?

Currently, latest main is not runnable on our machines, that's using docker or directly compiling from main...

@distributedstatemachine any ideas?

[Thanos30]

For anyone still experiencing this issue, I pulled Release v1.1.1, cleaned blockchain data, rebuilt cargo and started the subtensor again and it works fine.

I am using the subtensor only to fetch data from the chain and for no other reason. If you are using the subtensor for any other reason, I can't guarantee this release is gonna work smoothly for you.

Workaround until this issue is fixed.

My node will run for about 24h normally before it encounters the error again when starting from scratch with a clean install.
Have yours been working for longer than this?

[Thanos30]

The past week that's what was happening for me as well, but yesterday it wouldn't even work for a while, it immediately started spamming the same errors.

With the old Release, no issues for 24 hours so far, and the node is syncing fine.

[tavurth]

With the old Release, no issues for 24 hours so far, and the node is syncing fine.

Yep can also confirm 1.1.1 is working for me:

cd subtensor
git fetch --all
git reset --hard 703bdbd178c5d6e64edd4ffcf69aa49d63349290
cargo build --release --features pow-faucet

... Restart

703bdbd

[orriin]

Confirming a workaround is to use an old node version, it is fully compatible with the latest runtime. We're using a625834e on a test machine and it syncs fine.

We're continuing to investigate this, thanks for bearing with us.
