Go Ethereum on August 24 has released a hotfix to its bugged update Geth v1.10.22 (Promavess). Ethereum client Go Ethereum has released Geth v1.10.23 (Sentry Omega), a stable Mainnet Merge update.
Anyone who has updated with the Geth v1.10.22 needs to roll back the chain and rerun the last 2 days. Thereafter, mainnet nodes need to upgrade with the Geth v1.10.23 (Sentry Omega) release. Moreover, an alternative is to resync after an update by deleting the “chaindata” folder.
“If you’ve already updated to .22, you will have to roll back your chain and rerun the last 2 days to ensure everything’s ok. More in the release notes. Sorry about this!”
The Geth v1.10.22 had a pruning regression bug that may have caused a problem with the Mainnet Merge.
Nethermind also discovered a bug in the release v1.14.0. But fixed the issue by deciding to switch to a strict stabilization phase before the Merge.
