The hardened PowerShell retry loop from 2c2efd8 passed -ConnectionTimeout
and -OperationTimeout to Invoke-WebRequest. Those are PowerShell 7+ only;
GitHub Actions Windows runners ship PowerShell 5.1, which rejected them
with 'ParentContainsErrorRecordException / NamedParameterNotFound' on
the first iteration of the loop, and the catch block silently counted
the syntax error as a 'failed attempt' instead of a script bug.
Result on run #28689210122: both Windows jobs (build-windows-qt,
build-windows-daemon) failed at 'Download Tor' / 'Bundle Tor for daemon'
with exit code 1 before any HTTP traffic happened. macOS + Linux passed.
Fix:
* Drop -ConnectionTimeout and -OperationTimeout (PS7-only).
* Restructure the retry loop: explicit $downloaded flag, remove the
part-file on each attempt, throw explicitly at the end if all 3
attempts produced no usable file. The size check (>1MB) still
rejects 0-byte / truncated '200 OK' responses.
* Add a comment at the top of each step explaining the PS 5.1 limitation
so the next agent doesn't re-add the PS7 params.
The macOS build of e2cd0b6 (the NeedsBootstrap rocksdb/ fix) failed at
the 'Bundle Tor into app' step with bash exit code 6 after exactly 30s
of curl hanging against archive.torproject.org. All 4 Tor download
sites (Windows Qt, Windows daemon, Linux Qt .deb, Linux daemon .deb,
macOS Qt) used 'curl -sL' with no timeouts and no retries — a single
transient network drop from Azure westus to the Tor archive killed
the job.
Fix at all 4 sites:
* curl -fSL (HTTP error -> non-zero exit; fail loudly)
* --connect-timeout 15 / --max-time 120 (per-attempt bounds)
* --retry 3 --retry-delay 5 --retry-connrefused --retry-all-errors
(covers 5xx, DNS timeouts, and connection refused)
* 'set -euo pipefail' at script top so any failure aborts cleanly
* PowerShell variants get a manual retry loop with size check
(1MB minimum — a 0-byte '200 OK' response from a broken mirror
used to silently slip through)
Also bump CLIENT_VERSION_REVISION 1 -> 4 (v6.1.4) for the upcoming
release that will include e2cd0b6 (NeedsBootstrap rocksdb/ fix).
Release notes:
v6.1.4: Tor bundle download resilience (4 CI sites hardened)
+ e2cd0b6 (NeedsBootstrap rocksdb/ chain state detection). Supersedes
v6.1.3 only on CI reliability; no protocol/wallet/chain format changes.
cpp20 modernization made SQLite the default wallet backend
(find_package(SQLite3 REQUIRED)). The windows-qt job got it
transitively via Qt5-base, but the daemon job had no such
dependency → CMake configure failure.
Merges the HD wallet work and process-based I2P integration from the
SAMI-PC hd-wallet branch into v6 master. Conflict resolution keeps
v6 embedded I2P (CI2PEmbedded) as primary, includes process-I2P
files for reference, preserves FastImportBlockFile() from hd-wallet,
and keeps v6 version numbers (6.0.0) and wAddressStack Qt layout.
Adds libi2pd static library build step and -DUSE_I2P_EMBEDDED=ON to
all 5 build jobs (Windows Qt, Windows daemon, Linux Qt, Linux daemon,
macOS). Previously I2P compiled as stubs — wallet shipped without
.b32.i2p address support. macOS uses HOMEBREW=1 for correct i2pd
Makefile include paths.
PR #10 added a configure-time FATAL_ERROR for RocksDB < 7.4.0 because
the v5.9.24 daemon on DNS2 was built against librocksdb 6.11 and can't
read smsgDB SST files written by newer RocksDB (XXH3 per-block
checksum). The check worked — but it immediately failed CI, because
GitHub's ubuntu-22.04 runners also ship librocksdb-dev 6.11.4.
This is the same drift class the original patch was meant to prevent.
Fix: build RocksDB from source in CI, pinned to 8.9.1 (matching DNS2's
system version). Add scripts/ci/build-rocksdb.sh as a reusable helper
and call it from each of the four Linux jobs (test-linux-unit,
test-linux-sanitizers, build-linux-daemon, build-linux-qt). Drop
librocksdb-dev from the apt-get install (otherwise find_library would
pick up /usr/lib/librocksdb.so.6.11.4 first) and add libsnappy-dev /
libzstd-dev / liblz4-dev (compression libs RocksDB optionally links
against).
MacOS was already passing — Homebrew's rocksdb is current. Windows
was already passing — MSYS2's mingw-w64-rocksdb is at 9.x.
Also fix a cosmetic CMake bug: the version-detect function was setting
RocksDB_VERSION with PARENT_SCOPE only, so the 'Detected RocksDB
version from version.h:' message printed an empty value. Set the local
variable too so the STATUS message reflects the real value.
The Windows libtor build was failing on MSYS2 with:
./configure: line 2220: ${ac_cv_func_ RtlSecureZeroMemory+y}: bad substitution
Root cause: bash 4.4 (MSYS2's bash) and dash (/bin/sh on MSYS2) both
fail to parse ${VAR1$VAR2+y} or ${VAR1${VAR2}+y}. autoconf 2.69-2.73
emit one of these patterns in the AC_CHECK_FUNCS expansion, and
patching the resulting configure on the runner is fragile (the
Makefile's automake rules re-invoke autoconf and aclocal if any
mtime looks stale).
Fix: vendor a complete known-good build environment generated with
autoconf 2.71 on Linux. The vendored set:
src/tor/configure.vendored (37,966 lines, bash 4.4+clean)
src/tor/configure-aux/ (8 autotools auxiliary scripts)
src/tor/configure-input/ (11 AC_CONFIG_FILES inputs + aclocal.m4)
src/tor/regenerate-tor-configure.sh (one-shot regenerator with parse check)
src/tor/build-libtor.sh (uses vendored set when present)
build-libtor.sh now:
1. Copies configure.vendored + 8 aux files + 11 inputs into the
tor-src submodule directory.
2. Touches all vendored files to now+1s so the generated Makefile's
'regenerate configure from configure.ac' and 'regenerate
aclocal.m4 from m4/' rules see no work to do.
3. Runs configure directly (skips autoreconf entirely).
The legacy autoreconf+patch path is preserved under AUTORECONF_FORCE=1
for Linux dev when someone needs to test against an updated tor
commit. regenerate-tor-configure.sh handles regenerating the
vendored set from a fresh autoconf run.
Workflow:
build-all.yml — adds 'Build libtor' step to all 5 platform jobs,
adds mingw-w64-x86_64-autotools to MSYS2 install lists (still
needed for unrelated automake deps), and adds cpp20-modernization
to the push trigger list so future CI runs can iterate on that
branch without manual workflow_dispatch.
Verified end-to-end on commit 9d4baea:
build-linux-daemon ✅ success
build-linux-qt ✅ success
build-windows-daemon ✅ success
build-windows-qt ✅ success
build-macos ✅ success
test-linux-unit ✅ success
test-linux-sanitizers ✅ success
CI run: https://github.com/SamiAhmed7777/triangles_v5/actions/runs/28209275346
Two fixes:
1. Windows: replaced broken 'mingw-w64-x86_64-autoconf/automake/
autoconf2.13/libtool' individual packages with the meta package
'mingw-w64-x86_64-autotools' which is what actually exists in the
MINGW64 repo (the individual ones don't).
2. macOS: added 'zlib' to brew install (configure complained the
--with-zlib-dir was empty).
Also fixed the chaindb equivalence test step in build-all.yml to
run the correct binary: 'build/bin/test_chaindb_equivalence'
(which is the dedicated driver for chaindb_equivalence_tests)
rather than 'build/bin/test_triangles --run_test=chaindb_...'
(the test suite lives in a separate binary, not in test_triangles).
The static 'CWallet wallet' inside BOOST_AUTO_TEST_SUITE(wallet_tests)
is in the wallet_tests namespace, not the global scope. Replaced 'wallet'
with 'wallet_tests::wallet' in the abandon_transaction_tests cases.
Also fixed the build-libtor autotools deps for Windows (msys2 doesn't
ship 'mingw-w64-x86_64-autotools' — installed autoconf/automake/
autoconf2.13/libtool separately) and for macOS (brew install autoconf
automake libtool, export PATH so the libtoolize/automake binaries are
findable).
Run #468 (the re-trigger after #467's fixes) failed with two more issues:
1. Linux build-libtor step needed static OpenSSL libs (libssl.a,
libcrypto.a) for the helper tools (tor-resolve, tor-print-ed-signing-cert)
that the script was building by default. Ubuntu's libssl-dev
package only ships the shared .so libs, not the static .a ones.
We don't actually need the helper tools — Triangles only consumes
libtor.a. Changed 'make' to 'make libtor.a' in build-libtor.sh
so only the static library is built.
2. Windows msys2 was missing autotools (aclocal, autoconf, automake,
libtool). autogen.sh failed with 'aclocal: command not found'.
Added 'mingw-w64-x86_64-autotools' and 'mingw-w64-x86_64-libtool'
to the msys2 install lists in both Windows jobs.
If this one fails I'll show you the log. (Run #469 will be the test.)
Run #467 (the re-trigger after #466's fixes) failed with two new error
classes that the previous commit didn't catch:
1. macOS link error:
ld: unknown options: --allow-multiple-definition --start-group --end-group
src/CMakeLists.txt passed GNU ld flags unconditionally in the
USE_TOR_EMBEDDED block. Apple's ld64 doesn't recognize them.
Guard the GNU-only options with NOT APPLE; keep -ltor and the
linkable libraries outside the guard so macOS still gets them.
2. Linux libtor configure error:
configure: error: "You must specify an explicit
--with-libevent-dir=x option when using --enable-static-libevent"
build-libtor.sh defaults to /mingw64 paths. On ubuntu-22.04 the
libevent-dev/libssl-dev/zlib1g-dev packages install under /usr,
so the libevent flag was being silently dropped. Set
LIBEVENT_DIR=/usr OPENSSL_DIR=/usr ZLIB_DIR=/usr for Linux jobs.
3. Added the build-libtor step to three more jobs that needed it
(Qt GUI builds also link -ltor transitively via triangles_common):
- build-windows-qt
- build-linux-qt
- build-macos
After this:
- All 7 build jobs will pass the libtor step.
- macOS Qt link will work (no more GNU-ld-only options).
- Windows Qt build will produce the .exe installer artifact.
If anything still fails I'll iterate. This is the third build pass.
Two CI issues were blocking the Windows Qt build of v5.9.25-fork-detection
(run #466, all 7 jobs failed):
1. transactionview.cpp: called TransactionTableModel::refresh() but
the actual method is refreshWallet() (public slot). Fixed in the
abandonTransaction() handler.
2. build-all.yml: every daemon job failed at link with
'cannot find -ltor'. The Tor source is a git submodule
(src/tor/tor-src) and USE_TOR_EMBEDDED defaults to ON, but
src/tor/build-libtor.sh is NEVER invoked from the workflow.
Added a 'Build libtor' step before the main build in:
- build-windows-qt
- build-windows-daemon
- build-linux-daemon
- test-linux-unit
- test-linux-sanitizers
(The macos/Linux-Qt builds only do BUILD_QT=ON, so they don't link
libtor and don't need the extra step. The macos run also failed on
the refresh() compile error, which is fixed by 1 above.)
* Add triangles-cli: JSON-RPC client (port bitcoin-cli pattern)
Triangles never had a CLI client (bitcoin-cli analog). This adds
triangles-cli as a third build target alongside trianglesd and
triangles-qt.
- src/triangles-cli.cpp: self-contained JSON-RPC 1.0 client.
Reads triangles.conf for credentials, supports -rpcuser/-rpcpassword
/-rpcconnect/-rpcport/-testnet/-datadir/-conf flags. Implements
-getinfo (synthesized summary from getnetworkinfo/getblockchaininfo
/getwalletinfo) and raw method dispatch. JSON via json_spirit compat
shim (json_compat.h), HTTP via boost::asio, base64 auth inline.
No util.cpp / wallet.cpp / net.cpp / triangles_common link dep —
keeps the binary small (~600 KB Linux, ~1.5 MB Windows).
- CMake: new option(BUILD_CLI ON) + add_executable(triangles-cli)
in src/CMakeLists.txt. Status line added.
- CI: BUILD_CLI=ON added to build-windows-daemon and build-linux-daemon
jobs. triangles-cli.exe bundled into windows-daemon artifact
alongside trianglesd.exe. triangles-cli added to linux-daemon .deb
package (with launcher in /usr/bin).
- Default ON; set BUILD_CLI=OFF to skip.
Closes the open 'triangles-cli.exe missing from Windows build'
follow-up (the binary wasn't missing — it never existed).
Patterned after Bitcoin Core bitcoin-cli and Dash Core dash-cli.
* Fix macOS build: drop Boost::system/find_package component, use std::filesystem
Homebrew's boost formula doesn't ship the boost_system CMake config file,
so find_package(Boost REQUIRED COMPONENTS system) failed on macOS.
- Replace boost::filesystem with std::filesystem (C++17, no Boost dep)
- Drop 'filesystem' from find_package — only headers needed (asio + system)
- Link libboost_system explicitly per-platform by library name, resolved
via the platform's default search path (Homebrew toolchain on macOS,
system libs on Linux, MSYS2 on Windows)
CI will rerun automatically on PR push.
* Fix macOS build: add Boost::boost target for headers, link boost_system
The previous fix dropped the find_package component but also killed the
boost include path. Now use the modern Boost::boost header-only target
(available in Boost 1.83+) which sets up include directories without
requiring a per-component config file.
Link libboost_system explicitly by name on all platforms — the linker
finds it via the platform's default search path:
- Linux: /usr/lib (libboost_system.so)
- macOS Homebrew: /opt/homebrew/lib (libboost_system.dylib)
- Windows MSYS2: mingw64/bin (libboost_system-mt-X-XX.dll)
* Drop Boost entirely from triangles-cli: use raw sockets for HTTP
Third time's the charm. After two CI failures chasing boost::asio / libboost_system
linking issues across platforms (Homebrew missing config on macOS, MSYS2 versioned
names on Windows, CMake targets that don't quite work everywhere), rip the whole
Boost dependency out of the CLI and use raw POSIX/Winsock sockets.
- triangles-cli.cpp: replaced boost::asio with raw socket() / connect() / send()
/ recv() / getaddrinfo(). Cross-platform: #ifdef _WIN32 for Winsock + WSAStartup
/ WSACleanup, else POSIX. ~100 lines of clean portable socket code.
- src/CMakeLists.txt: dropped find_package(Boost) entirely. Only links
json_compat (header-only) + ws2_32 on Windows. No boost libs to find.
Should be the last fix needed for this PR.
* Fix Windows packaging step: simplify bash { } | sort -u | while pattern
The previous step used a bash group command piped through sort -u and a
while loop. Under MSYS2 bash + 'set -e -o pipefail' (GitHub Actions
default), this triggered a non-zero exit even when the loop body
succeeded, causing the Windows daemon job to fail at the packaging step
(the actual link of both trianglesd.exe and triangles-cli.exe succeeded).
Replaced the { } | sort -u | while pattern with a temp-file-based dedup:
- ldd both binaries, append to /tmp/cli-dlls.txt (or cli-libs.txt on Linux)
- sort -u the temp file
- pipe the result into the while loop (simpler pipeline, no group)
Also applied the same simplification to the Linux .deb packaging for
consistency, even though the Linux build was passing.
* Simplify DLL packaging: plain for loop, no pipe-into-while
The previous attempts used 'ldd | sort -u | while read; do ... done' patterns
that exit 1 under MSYS2 bash + 'set -e -o pipefail' even when the script
ran successfully. Replaced with a plain 'for bin in ...; do ldd > list.txt;
while read; do cp; done < list.txt; done' pattern that has no pipelines
other than the standard redirection, and uses IFS= read -r for safe line
iteration.
Also moved temp files from /tmp to the working directory (./dll-list.txt)
to avoid any MSYS2 /tmp path-translation edge cases.
* diagnostic: add tracing to Windows packaging step
* Add package-windows-daemon.sh + package-linux-daemon.sh scripts
Move the Windows daemon packaging step and the Linux .deb build into
committed shell scripts under scripts/ci/. This bypasses GitHub Actions'
inline-run-block quirks (silent exit 1 under msys2 + set -e -o pipefail
with multi-line scripts) and makes the packaging logic debuggable locally.
* Switch to script-file packaging for Windows + Linux daemon jobs
Replace inline multi-line run: blocks with invocations of the
scripts/ci/package-*.sh scripts. This sidesteps the GitHub Actions
msys2 + 'set -e -o pipefail' issue that caused silent exit 1 on the
Windows daemon packaging step. The scripts are also debuggable locally.

The secure-messaging store (smsgDB) used the LevelDB API directly. Mass-
mapped to the equivalent RocksDB types: leveldb::DB/Status/WriteBatch/
Iterator/Slice/ReadOptions/WriteOptions/WriteBatch::Handler -> rocksdb::*.
The RocksDB API surface for our usage is binary-compatible — pure namespace
substitution, no semantic changes. Consumers in rpcsmessage.cpp and
qt/messagemodel.cpp updated to match.
RocksDB now becomes a hard build dependency (was optional behind
BUILD_ROCKSDB). The chain-DB rocksdb backend is consequently always
available; -chaindb=leveldb remains the default until the Phase-4
LevelDB retirement. Removed the BUILD_ROCKSDB cmake option, the
#ifdef BUILD_ROCKSDB guards in txdb*, and the runtime error path
that triggered when the flag was off.
CI updated: librocksdb-dev (Ubuntu), mingw-w64-x86_64-rocksdb (MSYS2),
and rocksdb (Homebrew) added to all build jobs.

Linux Qt .deb: bundles all .so files + LD_LIBRARY_PATH wrapper
Linux daemon .deb: same + systemd Environment= for LD_LIBRARY_PATH
Windows: already handled (ldd scan for DLLs)
macOS: already handled (install_name_tool into Frameworks)
Removed all Depends: from .deb control files. Every package
runs on a clean machine with nothing pre-installed.
Windows Qt: ldd scan copies every MSYS2 DLL into installer
Windows daemon: ships with DLLs + Tor in a zip
macOS: copies Homebrew dylibs into .app/Frameworks with install_name_tool
Linux: unchanged (.deb Depends handles it via apt)
Windows: NSIS setup.exe — double-click to install with Start Menu
shortcuts, desktop icon, uninstaller in Add/Remove Programs.
Tor bundled in tor/ subfolder, auto-detected by wallet.
Linux: .deb packages (dpkg -i) for both Qt wallet and daemon.
Wallet gets desktop entry + app icon. Daemon gets systemd service.
Tor bundled in /usr/lib/cryptographic-triangles/tor/.
macOS: DMG with Tor inside .app bundle (unchanged).
All platforms: download one file, install, run. Zero configuration.
Every release now ships with Tor integrated:
- Windows Qt/daemon: tor.exe + geoip data in tor/ subfolder
- Linux Qt/daemon: tor binary + geoip data in tor/ subfolder
- macOS DMG: tor binary inside .app/Contents/MacOS/tor/
The wallet auto-detects tor in the tor/ subfolder next to the binary.
No user configuration needed - Tor starts automatically on launch.
Release assets now packaged as archives (zip/tar.gz) to include
the tor/ directory alongside the wallet binary.
Every release now ships with the Tor Expert Bundle included:
- Windows Qt: tor/ directory alongside triangles-qt.exe
- Windows daemon: tor/ directory alongside trianglesd.exe
- Linux Qt: tor/ directory in release tarball
- Linux daemon: tor/ directory in release tarball
- macOS: tor/ inside .app bundle (Contents/MacOS/tor/)
The wallet already auto-detects tor binary next to itself or in
a tor/ subfolder. Zero configuration needed for users - Tor starts
automatically with the wallet and stops when it exits.
Release assets now packaged as zip/tar.gz to include tor directory.
Build jobs extract MAJOR.MINOR.REVISION from src/clientversion.h.
Release job extracts from the git tag name. No more forgetting to
update the workflow when bumping versions.
