Notice:

This version introduces API changes which require API users to make modifications to their code, as detailed here:
https://nxtforum.org/nrs-releases/nrs-v1-6-2/msg199198/#msg199198

If you are using the Nxt API, do NOT upgrade to the 1.6 branch without reviewing and if necessary modifying your calls to the affected APIs. However, keep in mind that while upgrade to 1.6 is optional, upgrade to 1.7 (which is expected very soon) will be mandatory, and you can prepare for that by starting the migration to 1.6 without delay now.

If you are a new user of Nxt, or existing user only running Nxt on your desktop, and have no idea what API is, ignore the above notice and proceed installing 1.6.2. It is currently our latest stable release, and is recommended for all new users.

https://bitbucket.org/JeanLucPicard/nxt/downloads/nxt-client-1.6.2.exe

The exe and jar packages must have a digital signature by "Stichting NXT".

Change log:

The 1.6 series is no longer considered experimental. If upgrading from 1.5.15
or earlier, see the 1.6.0e and 1.6.1e changelogs for other important changes
in 1.6.

The account ledger now uses transaction id as event id for all events except
block generation. To apply this change, the account ledger table will be
automatically truncated on upgrade to this release. Users who desire to
restore the deleted past account ledger entries should run a full rescan from
the API test page. Note that account ledger records are only kept for 30000
blocks by default.

Added currency transfers history page to the Monetary System UI.

Added generate hallmark dialog to facilitate hallmarking your node. The host
field is pre-populated with the external node address as detected by UPnP.
Note that when using dynamic IP address you should set up and use a dynamic
DNS hostname instead of the numeric IP for the hallmark. And when using a
non-default port, the host field should be filled as host:port.

Added "clear results" link in the ShapeShift My Exchanges section, to allow
clearing past transaction history. As this history data is being retrieved
from the ShapeShift servers, it allows correlating Nxt accounts previously
used for exchange transactions with the current user IP address and with each
other, thus clearing history after no longer needed is important for the user
privacy.

Funding a new account using ShapeShift now relies on the ShapeShift sendamount
API which provides better conversion rate. The user first specifies the
amount of NXT to receive, the dialog then presents a deposit address for the
source currency which the user needs to fund with the exact amount within 10
minutes.

Added ledger tab to the account info dialog.

Added includeAssetInfo or includeCurrencyInfo parameters, default false, to
the getAccountAssets, getAccountCurrencies, getAccountExchangeRequests,
getExpectedAssetTransfers, and getExpectedCurrencyTransfers APIs.

Tabs are now sorted mostly alphabetically on the API test page.

Added nxt.hideErrorDetails property, default false, to allow suppressing node
specific configuration details in error messages returned to peers.

Increased default prunable lifetime setting to 90 days. Minimum enforced is
still 2 weeks.

The UPnP connection timeouts are now also configurable in nxt.properties.

Updated Bouncy Castle library to version 1.53, Jetty to version 9.3.5, IzPack
installer to 5.0.5, and weupnp to 0.1.4. Make sure to delete the old lib
folder if unpacking over a previous installation.

Congrats! Very nice. I am looking forward developing with it

Nice work, J-L, as ever.

(didn't realise the NRS had a built-in Bouncy Castle

)

Can it be that in linux (ubuntu)

Kill 'PID' no longer shuts down the java process?

it stays stuck on

I have to use kill -9 'PID' now to stop the NRS client.

Not sure where to post a "bug".

Sometimes when loggin into the client the gui is acting weird.
Hiding the menu and showing it again solves if for some time

Jean-Luc · « **Reply #9 on:** October 31, 2015, 10:49:10 pm »

Must be the database shutdown that takes longer the first time, doing a compact. You should wait, kill -9 may corrupt it.

I'll see how long it takes to stop completely and report back.

testdruif · « **Reply #11 on:** October 31, 2015, 11:02:04 pm »

Took around 10 minutes to stop completely.

After that starting and stopping goes as it should be.

Thanks for the swift reply!

I have seen this on chrome, windows 10 aswell, also in previous 1.6.xe versions.
I did think it was something wrong with my computer/browser.

Tosch110 · « **Reply #13 on:** November 01, 2015, 01:08:28 am »

I have seen that screen before myself. For me it always correct itself as soon as it is loaded. So I did not think it is a problem

Thank you,already updated,everything looks well.

I try to upgrade and i paste my previous data folder into the new version but it never completes the terminal connection.

Using Ubuntu..

Should i copy over the whole data folder of just the main data file in the folder?

bogs down - here.. sometimes it gets past it but stops again.

--------------------------------

2015-11-01 10:17:10 FINE: Database connection pool current size: 1
2015-11-01 10:17:10 INFO: Database update may take a while if needed, current db version 405...
2015-11-01 10:17:10 FINE: Database connection pool current size: 2
2015-11-01 10:17:10 FINE: Will apply sql:
ALTER TABLE transaction ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS has_prunable_attachment BOOLEAN NOT NULL DEFAULT FALSE

Can i ask as I am new here.

It seems like the NRS is the home position where we can do all our functions.

Why is the forum not just incorporated in there?

This step of updating the transaction table may take a long time, perhaps even 20 minutes, so just wait for it to complete.
In case it fails with an error message, please post the error message and your nxt.log here.

I see zero Assets in my account. Balance is OK. Asset trade history shows "undefined" asset on every tx.
I unpacked the new version and added the nxt_db folder from old version. Blockchain rescan went OK.
Do I need to redownload the blockchain from scratch?
