🚨Emergency🚨 Update for Steem-in-a-box (witnesses, seeds, and RPCs)

Attention all of you who operate a witness, seed, or RPC node

Earlier today, the network went offline due to a bug in 0.19.3. All witnesses are required to update to 0.19.5 immediately.

How to update my witness or seed?

As a lot of seeds may not be updated yet, it's highly recommended to add Steemit's own seeds to your config.ini

seed-node = seed-east.steemit.com:2001
seed-node = seed-central.steemit.com:2001
seed-node = seed-west.steemit.com:2001

Then, update using install

./run.sh install
./run.sh restart

Please be aware that there are mixed reports of replays being required. If you run into errors such as "Lock Timeout", which do not resolve themselves after running for 10-20 mins, please run the following to clear your shared memory and replay:

./run.sh stop
rm -rf /dev/shm/*
./run.sh replay

If you are running a full node (i.e. an RPC), use install_full instead of install.

If you continue to have issues, ask in #witness on https://steem.chat
