No bytes being read or written

[00h-i-r-a00]

For Shadow 1.10.2, I ran the first example that runs tgen with 10 clients. It doesn't seem to be creating a shadow.data directory, even though the logging seems to be coming out fine. It exits cleanly with the following last few lines:

Running the basic example with bitcoin plugin installed gives me this:

The common thing between running the vanilla shadow and its bitcoin version is that in both cases 0 bytes are being read and written, is that expected behavior?

Also, there are some errors in the shadow.log file. One of them is:

ERROR: Read : Failed to open file /home/fieldsofgold/shadow-plugin-bitcoin/run/data/bcdnode2/peers.dat

The entire log file is here. Could anyone please help me with this. Thanks!

I don't use the bitcoin plugin regularly, but I looked through this for a bit and can't tell exactly what is going on. Maybe someone else has an idea...

(I'm hoping to refresh the bitcoin plugin once Shadow v1.12 comes out - we've overhauled the plugin framework and it should be much cleaner to run bitcoin at that point. Until then, my guess is that it will take quite a bit of work to get bitcoin running correctly.)

@robgjansen Any idea when v1.12 comes out?

I am going to look more into this. Specifically, the source of this error
Error: Couldn't open socket for incoming connections (socket returned error Address family not supported by protocol (97)
which keeps recurring in the log file.

@robgjansen Any idea when v1.12 comes out?

We are working on it now - I am aiming for June/July.
