Chia Blockchain 1.3 Beta released

Edit about v1.2.12.dev284 and v1.2.12.dev269: Cannot change pool. Cannot change pool. Cannot change pool. Cannot change pool. Cannot change pool. Cannot change pool. Cannot change pool. Cannot change pool. Cannot change pool.

yepp as written I had also issues with NFTs. Sometimes it works sometimes not.

Anyone has a guide to install the beta in CLI debian from zero?

After fighting v1.3beta for 4 days, back to 1.2.11
No one can make me install 1.3 anymore. forever.

@thechiaplot Do you know whether if we remove db, and start syncing from scratch, will it default to db v1 or v2? Or rather config.yaml needs to specify which one will be created.

Iā€™m pretty sure you need to do the migrate or manually specify the config.yaml sections to make it v2. It defaults to v1 on a new installation.

Thank you.

I really do not understand why they decided to default to v1 on a new installation. Maybe this is just done for the beta versions, so it is easier to test (by default just one moving part and allows to test for db upgrades).

On the other hand, trying to depend on friendly names (e.g., ā€˜blockchain_v1_mainnetā€™) for any versioning is not the best practice. The friendly name is just a friendly name, as such the user should be able to name it ā€˜DonaldDuck.sqlite,ā€™ where db version should be specified in config.yaml through additional key. Although, I would rather go with directly marking db (some ā€˜versionā€™ column in state table), as that would let the code query db for that value, instead of depending on some easily modifiable elements.

Actually, it would be interesting to know, whether if db name was renamed (e.g., from v1 to v2), if the code would work properly. If the current db changes are just to remove redundant data, and better index tables, that should be transparent to the code.

Maybe there is no point to bang on this until chia v1.3 is released.

windows gui v1.2.12358. Still canā€™t change pool.

Error

Request cfaf1a3d497ecee3927ā€¦ failed: {ā€œerrorā€:"",ā€œsuccessā€:false}

EDIT:
Finally done manually using cli commands:
chia plotnft show
chia plotnft join -u < Pool URL > -i < number from chia plotnft show >

example:
chia plotnft show
(if wallet id 3)
chia plotnft join -u https://blablapool.com -i 3

ā€¦wait for the pending time to endā€¦

for status:
chia plotnft inspect -i 3

LAST EDIT: It didnā€™t work. Still no change pool.

And you downloaded 12358 from where??

this is a beta version:
https://downloads.chia.net/beta/

https://download.chia.net/beta/ChiaSetup-latest-beta.exe this seems to be the windows beta 1.2.12360 not the 1.3 beta (ChiaSetup-1.2.12355-c8440160)

EDIT: No this is latest 1.3beta.

under ā€œbuildsā€ is not beta. Still building. Maybe alpha.

But under (https://downloads.chia.net/builds/) there are allot of files
