multiple copies of the plot / Status 3 error: Err.DOUBLE_SPEND

[uxrobinson]

I'm running into sync issues with 1.1.5 (while creating plots, but with plenty of memory to spare), so running another instance (1.1.4) on another machine which is fully synced (with the same plots). But seeing this in the logs, despite 1.1.5 being in a state of pretty much constant "not synced". Any advice greatly appreciated, thanks.

Sorry if this is doubling up. I did search before posting, and see there is plenty of 1.1.4 Double_Spend issues reported / discussed, but I am thinking my work around to the not syncing issues is causing the problem here (multiple copies of plot). Any advice on setting role of instance much appreciated - farmer, plotter for example.

Here's some of the errors I am seeing on the 1.1.5 machine, which is plotting:

Thanks for the reply. The plots listed as duplicates (which I commented out with [plot]) are my plots though. Is this a problem?

If you copy a plot many times. The only one will be activated. Don't do that, but if you did. I believe it is not a issue.

i have the same Problem, you found any solution?

If you are still experiencing the issues it is recommended to upgrade to the latest version of chia. Please download it from here: https://www.chia.net/downloads/

Since this issue has been open for a number of years without additional comments, we will be closing this ticket but if we have closed this ticket in error do not hesitate to reach out to us again with any followup questions, comments, or if the issue persists after an update.

Please note that upgrading major versions of chia generally requires the config.yaml to be recreated using these steps:
1. Stop chia
2. Rename the config or move it to a different directory
3. In CLI run chia init
4. Copy any custom settings from the old config to the new (plot drive directories, pool info, trusted node info, etc) - be careful here as yaml is very picky about formatting including those leading spaces
5. Start Chia
