How to Upgrade
|
||
|
|
==============
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely
|
||
|
|
shut down (which might take a few minutes for older versions), then run the
|
||
|
|
installer (on Windows) or just copy over `/Applications/Bitcoin-Qt` (on Mac)
|
||
|
|
or `bitcoind`/`bitcoin-qt` (on Linux).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If your node has a txindex, the txindex db will be migrated the first time you run 0.17.0 or newer, which may take up to a few hours. Your node will not be functional until this migration completes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The first time you run version 0.15.0 or newer, your chainstate database will be converted to a
|
||
|
|
new format, which will take anywhere from a few minutes to half an hour,
|
||
|
|
depending on the speed of your machine.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note that the block database format also changed in version 0.8.0 and there is no
|
||
|
|
automatic upgrade code from before version 0.8 to version 0.15.0. Upgrading
|
||
|
|
directly from 0.7.x and earlier without redownloading the blockchain is not supported.
|
||
|
|
However, as usual, old wallet versions are still supported.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Downgrading warning
|
||
|
|
-------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The chainstate database for this release is not compatible with previous
|
||
|
|
releases, so if you run 0.15 and then decide to switch back to any
|
||
|
|
older version, you will need to run the old release with the `-reindex-chainstate`
|
||
|
|
option to rebuild the chainstate data structures in the old format.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If your node has pruning enabled, this will entail re-downloading and
|
||
|
|
processing the entire blockchain.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Compatibility
|
||
|
|
==============
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Bitcoin Core is extensively tested on multiple operating systems using
|
||
|
|
the Linux kernel, macOS 10.10+, and Windows 7 and newer (Windows XP is not supported).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Bitcoin Core should also work on most other Unix-like systems but is not
|
||
|
|
frequently tested on them.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
From 0.17.0 onwards macOS <10.10 is no longer supported. 0.17.0 is built using Qt 5.9.x, which doesn't
|
||
|
|
support versions of macOS older than 10.10.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Notable changes
|
||
|
|
===============
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`listtransactions` label support
|
||
|
|
--------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The `listtransactions` RPC `account` parameter which was deprecated in 0.17.0
|
||
|
|
and renamed to `dummy` has been un-deprecated and renamed again to `label`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When bitcoin is configured with the `-deprecatedrpc=accounts` setting, specifying
|
||
|
|
a label/account/dummy argument will return both outgoing and incoming
|
||
|
|
transactions. Without the `-deprecatedrpc=accounts` setting, it will only return
|
||
|
|
incoming transactions (because it used to be possible to create transactions
|
||
|
|
spending from specific accounts, but this is no longer possible with labels).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When `-deprecatedrpc=accounts` is set, it's possible to pass the empty string ""
|
||
|
|
to list transactions that don't have any label. Without
|
||
|
|
`-deprecatedrpc=accounts`, passing the empty string is an error because returning
|
||
|
|
only non-labeled transactions is not generally useful behavior and can cause
|
||
|
|
confusion.
