The rippled 0.33.0 release includes an improved version of the payment code, which we expect to be activated via Amendment on Wednesday, 2016-10-20 with the name Flow. We are also introducing XRP Payment Channels, a new structure in the ledger designed to support Interledger Protocol trust lines as balances get substantial, which we expect to be activated via Amendment on a future date (TBA) with the name PayChan. Lastly, we will be introducing changes to the hash tree structure that rippled uses to represent a ledger, which we expect to be available via Amendment on a future date (TBA) with the name SHAMapV2.
You can update to the new version on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 or CentOS 7 using yum. For other platforms, please compile the new version from source.
** New and Updated Features **
A fixed version of the new payment processing engine, which we initially announced on Friday, 2016-07-29, is expected to be available via Amendment on Wednesday, 2016-10-20 with the name Flow. The new payments code adds no new features, but improves efficiency and robustness in payment handling.
The Flow code may occasionally produce slightly different results than the old payment processing engine due to the effects of floating point rounding.
We will be introducing changes to the hash tree structure that rippled uses to represent a ledger, which we expect to be activated via Amendment on a future date (TBA) with the name SHAMapV2. The new structure is more compact and efficient than the previous version. This affects how ledger hashes are calculated, but has no other user-facing consequences. The activation of the SHAMapV2 amendment will require brief scheduled allowable downtime, while the changes to the hash tree structure are propagated by the network. We will keep the community updated as we progress towards this date (TBA).
In an effort to make RCL more scalable and to support Interledger Protocol (ILP) trust lines as balances get more substantial, we’re introducing XRP Payment Channels, a new structure in the ledger, which we expect to be available via Amendment on a future date (TBA) with the name PayChan.
XRP Payment Channels permit scalable, intermittent, off-ledger settlement of ILP trust lines for high volume payments flowing in a single direction. For bidirectional channels, an XRP Payment Channel can be used in each direction. The recipient can claim any unpaid balance at any time. The owner can top off the channel as needed. The owner must wait out a delay to close the channel to give the recipient a chance to supply any claims. The total amount paid increases monotonically as newer claims are issued.
The initial concept behind payment channels was discussed as early as 2011 and the first implementation was done by Mike Hearn in bitcoinj. Recent work being done by Lightning Network has showcased examples of the many use cases for payment channels. The introduction of XRP Payment Channels allows for a more efficient integration between RCL and ILP to further support enterprise use cases for high volume payments.

Automatically-provided sequence numbers now consider the transaction queue - [RIPD-1206]
The server_info and server_state commands now include the queue-related escalated fee factor in the load_factor field of the response - [RIPD-1207]
A transaction with a high transaction cost can now cause transactions from the same sender queued in front of it to get into the open ledger if the transaction costs are high enough on average across all such transactions. - [RIPD-1246]
Reorganization: Move LoadFeeTrack to app/tx and clean up functions - [RIPD-956]
Reorganization: unit test source files - [RIPD-1132]
Reorganization: NuDB stand-alone repository - [RIPD-1163]
Reorganization: Add BEAST_EXPECT to Beast - [RIPD-1243]
Reorganization: Beast 64-bit CMake/Bjam target on Windows - [RIPD-1262]
** Bug Fixes **
PaymentSandbox::balanceHook can return the wrong issuer, which could cause the transfer fee to be incorrectly by-passed in rare circumstances. [RIPD-1274, #1827]
Prevent concurrent write operations in websockets [#1806]
Add HTTP status page for new websocket implementation [#1855]
The rippled 0.32.1 release includes an improved version of the payment code, which we expect to be available via Amendment on Wednesday, 2016-08-24 with the name FlowV2, and a completely new implementation of the WebSocket protocol for serving clients.
You can update to the new version on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 or CentOS 7 using yum. For other platforms, please compile the new version from source.
New and Updated Features
An improved version of the payment processing engine, which we expect to be available via Amendment on Wednesday, 2016-08-24 with the name “FlowV2”. The new payments code adds no new features, but improves efficiency and robustness in payment handling.
The FlowV2 code may occasionally produce slightly different results than the old payment processing engine due to the effects of floating point rounding. Once FlowV2 is enabled on the network then old servers without the FlowV2 amendment will lose sync more frequently because of these differences.
Beast WebSocket
A completely new implementation of the WebSocket protocol for serving clients is available as a configurable option for rippled administrators. To enable this new implementation, change the “protocol” field in rippled.cfg from “ws” to “ws2” (or from “wss” to “wss2” for Secure WebSockets), as illustrated in this example:
[port_ws_public]
port = 5006
ip = 0.0.0.0
protocol = wss2
The new implementation paves the way for increased reliability and future performance when submitting commands over WebSocket. The behavior and syntax of commands should be identical to the previous implementation. Please report any issues to [email protected]. A future version of rippled will remove the old WebSocket implementation, and use only the new one.
Bug fixes
Fix a non-exploitable, intermittent crash in some client pathfinding requests (RIPD-1219)
Fix a non-exploitable crash caused by a race condition in the HTTP server. (RIPD-1251)
Fix bug that could cause a previously fee queued transaction to not be relayed after being in the open ledger for an extended time without being included in a validated ledger. Fix bug that would allow an account to have more than the allowed limit of transactions in the fee queue. Fix bug that could crash debug builds in rare cases when replacing a dropped transaction. (RIPD-1200)
Remove incompatible OS X switches in Test.py (RIPD-1250)
Autofilling a transaction fee (sign / submit) with the experimental x-queue-okay parameter will use the user’s maximum fee if the open ledger fee is higher, improving queue position, and giving the tx more chance to succeed. (RIPD-1194)
The rippled 0.32.0 release improves transaction queue which now supports batching and can hold up to 10 transactions per account, allowing users to queue multiple transactions for processing when the network load is high. Additionally, the server_info and server_state commands now include information on transaction cost multipliers and the fee command is available to unprivileged users. We advise rippled operators to upgrade immediately.
You can update to the new version on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 or CentOS 7 using yum. For other platforms, please compile the new version from source.
New and Updated Features
- Allow multiple transactions per account in transaction queue (RIPD-1048). This also introduces a new transaction engine code,
telCAN_NOT_QUEUE. - Charge pathfinding consumers per source currency (RIPD-1019): The IP address used to perform pathfinding operations is now charged an additional resource increment for each source currency in the path set.

[port_wss_admin]and[port_ws_public]stanzas:
[port_wss_admin]
port = 51237
ip = 127.0.0.1
admin = 127.0.0.1
protocol = wss2
[port_ws_public]
port = 51233
ip = 0.0.0.0
protocol = wss2, ws2

Important rippled.cfg update
With rippled version 0.28, the rippled.cfg file must be changed according to these instructions:
- Change any entries that say
admin = allow to admin =
- For most installations, 127.0.0.1 will preserve current behavior. 0.0.0.0 may be specified to indicate "any IP" but cannot be combined with other IP addresses. Use of 0.0.0.0 may introduce severe security risks and is not recommended. See docs/rippled-example.cfg for more information.
More Strict Requirements on MemoType
The requirements on the contents of the MemoType field, if present, are more strict than the previous version. Transactions that can successfully be submitted to 0.27.4 and earlier may fail in 0.28.0. For details, please refer to updated memo documentation for details. Partners should check their implementation to make sure that their MemoType follows the new rules.
New Features

New Features
- RocksDB to NuDB import tool (RIPD-781, RIPD-785): custom tool specifically designed for very fast import of RocksDB nodestore databases into NuDB
Bug Fixes
- Fix streambuf bug
Improvements
- Update RocksDB backend settings
- NuDB improvements:
- Limit size of mempool (RIPD-787)
- Performance improvements (RIPD-793, RIPD-796): changes in Nudb to improve speed, reduce database size, and enhance correctness. The most significant change is to store hashes rather than entire keys in the key file. The output of the hash function is reduced to 48 bits, and stored directly in buckets.
Experimental
- Add /crawl cgi request feature to peer protocol (RIPD-729): adds support for a cgi /crawl request, issued over HTTPS to the configured peer protocol port. The response to the request is a JSON object containing the node public key, type, and IP address of each directly connected neighbor. The IP address is suppressed unless the neighbor has requested its address to be revealed by adding "Crawl: public" to its HTTP headers. This field is currently set by the peer_private option in the rippled.cfg file.

Author: Vinnie Falco <[email protected]>

Set version to 0.27.0
This release incorporates a number of important bugfixes and functional improvements. Please refer to the Git commit history for more detailed information.
Release Overview
The rippled team is proud to release rippled 0.27.0. This new version includes many exciting features that will appeal to our users. The team continues to work on stability, scalability, and performance.
The first feature is Online Delete. This feature allows rippled to maintain it’s database of previous ledgers within a fixed amount of disk space. It does this while allowing rippled to stay online and maintain an administrator specify minimum number of ledgers. This means administrators with limited disk space will no longer need to manage disk space by periodically manually removing the database. Also, with the previously existing backend databases performance would gradually degrade as the database grew in size. In particular, rippled would perform poorly whenever the backend database performed ever growing compaction operations. By limiting rippled to less history, compaction is less resource intensive and systems with less disk performance can now run rippled.
Additionally, we are very excited to include Universal Port. This feature allows rippled's listening port to handshake in multiple protocols. For example, a single listening port can be configured to receive incoming peer connections, incoming RPC commands over HTTP, and incoming RPC commands over HTTPS at the same time. Or, a single port can receive both Websockets and Secure Websockets clients at the same.
Finally, a new, experimental backend database, NuDB, has been added. This database was developed by Ripple Labs to take advantage of rippled’s specific data usage profile and performs much better than previous databases. Significantly, this database does not degrade in performance as the database grows. Very excitingly, this database works on OS X and Windows. This allows rippled to use these platforms for the first time.
Toolchain support
The minimum supported version of GCC used to compile rippled is v4.8. Please follow these instructions if you have not upgraded already.
While it may be possible to compile rippled on (virtual) machines with 4GB of RAM, we recommend compiling on (virtual) machines with 8GB of RAM or more. If your build machine has more than one CPU (`grep '^processor' /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l`), you can use them to assist in the build process by compiling with the command scons -j[number of CPUs - 1].
The minimum supported version of Boost is v1.57.0. You must upgrade to this release or later to successfully compile this release of rippled. Please follow these instructions if you have not upgraded already.
Important rippled.cfg Update
The format of the configuration file has changed. If upgrading from a previous version of rippled, please see the migration instructions below.
New Features
- SHAMapStore Online Delete (RIPD-415): Makes rippled configurable to support deletion of all data in its key-value store (nodestore) and ledger and transaction SQLite databases based on validated ledger sequence numbers. See doc/rippled-example.cfg for configuration setup.
- Universal Port. See necessary config changes below.
- Config "ledger_history_index" option (RIPD-559)
Bug Fixes
- Fix pathfinding with multiple issuers for one currency (RIPD-618)
- Fix account_lines, account_offers and book_offers result (RIPD-682)
- Fix pathfinding bugs (RIPD-735)
- Fix RPC subscribe with multiple books (RIPD-77)
- Fix account_tx API
Improvements
- Improve the human-readable description of the tesSUCCESS code
- Add 'delivered_amount' to Transaction JSON (RIPD-643): The synthetic field 'delivered_amount' can be used to determine the exact amount delivered by a Payment without having to check the DeliveredAmount field, if present, or the Amount field otherwise.
Development-Related Updates
- HTTP Handshaking for Peers on Universal Port (RIPD-446)
- Use asio signal handling in Application (RIPD-140)
- Build dependency on Boost 1.57.0
- Support a "no_server" flag in test config
- API for improved Unit Testing (RIPD-432)
- Option to specify rippled path on command line (--rippled=<absolute or relative path>)
Experimental
- NuDB backend option: high performance key/value database optimized for rippled (set “type=nudb” in .cfg)
Migration Instructions
With rippled version 0.27.0, the rippled.cfg file must be changed according to these instructions:
-
Add new stanza -
[server]. This section will contain a list of port names and key/value pairs. A port name must start with a letter and contain only letters and numbers. The name is not case-sensitive. For each name in this list, rippled will look for a configuration file section with the same name and use it to create a listening port. To simplify migration, you can use port names from your previous version of rippled.cfg (see Section 1. Server for detailed explanation in doc/rippled-example.cfg). For example:[server] rpc_port peer_port websocket_port ssl_key = <set value to your current [rpc_ssl_key] or [websocket_ssl_key] setting> ssl_cert = <set value to your current [rpc_ssl_cert] or [websocket_ssl_cert] setting> ssl_chain = <set value to your current [rpc_ssl_chain] or [websocket_ssl_chain] setting> -
For each port name in
[server]stanza, add separate stanzas. For example:[rpc_port] port = <set value to your current [rpc_port] setting, usually 5005> ip = <set value to your current [rpc_ip] setting, usually 127.0.0.1> admin = allow protocol = https [peer_port] port = <set value to your current [peer_port], usually 51235> ip = <set value to your current [peer_ip], usually 0.0.0.0> protocol = peer [websocket_port] port = <your current [websocket_port], usually 6006> ip = <your current [websocket_ip], usually 127.0.0.1> admin = allow protocol = wss -
Remove current
[rpc_port],[rpc_ip],[rpc_allow_remote],[rpc_ssl_key],[rpc_ssl_cert],and[rpc_ssl_chain],[peer_port],[peer_ip],[websocket_port],[websocket_ip]settings from rippled.cfg -
If you allow untrusted websocket connections to your rippled, add
[websocket_public_port]stanza under[server]section and replace websocket public settings with[websocket_public_port]section:[websocket_public_port] port = <your current [websocket_public_port], usually 5005> ip = <your current [websocket_public_ip], usually 127.0.0.1> protocol = ws ← make sure this is ws, not wss` -
Remove
[websocket_public_port],[websocket_public_ip],[websocket_ssl_key],[websocket_ssl_cert],[websocket_ssl_chain]settings from rippled.cfg -
Disable
[ssl_verify]section by setting it to 0 -
Migrate the remaining configurations without changes. To enable online delete feature, check Section 6. Database in doc/rippled-example.cfg
Integration Notes
With this release, integrators should deprecate the "DeliveredAmount" field in favor of "delivered_amount."
For Transactions That Occurred Before January 20, 2014:
- If amount actually delivered is different than the transactions “Amount” field
- "delivered_amount" will show as unavailable indicating a developer should use caution when processing this payment.
- Example: A partial payment transaction (tfPartialPayment).
- Otherwise
- "delivered_amount" will show the correct destination balance change.
For Transactions That Occur After January 20, 2014:
- If amount actually delivered is different than the transactions “Amount” field
- A "delivered_amount" field will determine the destination amount change
- Example: A partial payment transaction (tfPartialPayment).
- Otherwise
- "delivered_amount" will show the correct destination balance change.

If you are a validator, you should set your quorum to at least four.
IPs
A list of Ripple Labs server IP addresses can be found by resolving r.ripple.com. You can also add this to your rippled.cfg file to ensure you always have several peer connections to Ripple Labs servers:

RocksDB back end
RocksDB is based on LevelDB with improvements from Facebook and the community. Preliminary tests show that it stalls less often than HyperLevelDB for our use cases.
If you are switching over from an existing back end, you have two options. You can remove your old database and let rippled recreate it as it re-syncs, or you can import your old database into the new one.
To remove your old database, make sure the server is shut down (`rippled stop`). Remove the db/ledger.db and db/transaction.db files. Remove all the files in your back end store directory (db/hashnode by default). Then change your configuration file to use the RocksDB back end and restart.
To import your old database, start by shutting the server down. Then modify the configuration file by renaming your [node_db] stanza to [import_db]. Create a new [node_db] stanza and specify a RocksDB back end with a different directory. Start the server with the command rippled --import. When the import finishes gracefully stop the server (`rippled stop`). Please wait for rippled to stop on its own because it can take several minutes for it to shut down after an import. Remove the old database, put the new database into place, remove the [import_db] section, change the [node_db] section to refer to the final location, and restart the server.
The recommended RocksDB configuration is:
[node_db]
type=RocksDB
path=db/hashnode
open_files=1200
filter_bits=12
cache_mb=128
file_size_mb=8
file_size_mult=2
Configuring your Node DB
You need to configure the NodeBackEnd that you want the server to use. See above for an example RocksDB configuration.
- Note: HyperLevelDB and RocksDB are not available on Windows platform.

Major Partner Issues Fixed
- rippled will crash randomly.
- Entries in the three parts of the order book are missing or do not match. In such a case, rippled will crash.
- Server loses sync randomly.
- This is due to rippled restarting after it crashes. That the server restarted is not obvious and appears to be something else.
- Server goes 'offline' randomly.
- This is due to rippled restarting after it crashes. That the server restarted is not obvious and appears to be something else.
- complete_ledgers part of server_info output says "None".
- This is due to rippled restarting and reconstructing the ledger after it crashes.
- If the node back end is corrupted or has been moved without being renamed in rippled.cfg, this can cause rippled to crash and restart.

Major Partner Issues Fixed
- Server Showing "Offline"
This issue was caused by LevelDB periodically compacting its internal data structure. While compacting, rippled's processing would stall causing the node to lose sync with the rest of the network. This issue was solved by switching from LevelDB to HyperLevelDB. rippled operators will need to change their ripple.cfg file. See below for configuration details.
- Premature Validation of Transactions
On rare occasions, a transaction would show as locally validated before the full network consensus was confirmed. This issue was resolved by changing the way transactions are saved.
- Missing Ledgers
Occasionally, some rippled servers would fail to fetch all ledgers. This left gaps in the local history and caused some API calls to report incomplete results. The ledger fetch code was rewritten to both prevent this and to repair any existing gaps.
Significant Changes
- The way transactions are saved has been changed. This fixes a number of ways transactions can incorrectly be reported as fully-validated.
doTransactionEntrynow works against open ledgers.doLedgerEntrynow supports a binary option.- A bug in
getBookPagethat caused it to skip offers is fixed. getNodeFatnow returns deeper chains, reducing ledger acquire latency.- Catching up if the (published ledger stream falls behind the network) is now more aggressive.
- I/O stalls are drastically reduced by using the HyperLevelDB node back end.
- Persistent ledger gaps should no longer occur.
- Clusters now exchange load information.

Release Candidates
RC1 was the first release candidate.
RC2 fixed a bug that could cause ledger acquires to stall.
RC3 fixed compilation under OSX.
RC4 includes performance improvements in countAccountTx and numerous small fixes to ledger acquisition.
RC5 changed the peer low water mark from 4 to 10 to acquire more server connections.
RC6 fixed some possible load issues with the network state timer and cluster reporting timers.
Issues
Fetching of historical ledgers is slower in this build than in previous builds. This is being investigated.
