It is definitely not. I am attempting to create a second channel with a different consortium in a network that has already been spun up with a channel and consortium. Spencer

Thanks for this info.

Like everything in open source, 'support' is based on the goodwill of the community. The project maintainers do provide long-term support (LTS) guidance, to indicate which release streams will be the

We discussed configuration updates for Fabric peer and orderer in the last contributors meetings. See proposal at https://jira.hyperledger.org/browse/FAB-16753. The maintainers have been discussing

I heard the docs are out of date, can someone clarify if Go is supported in 1.4?

Ivan, I now understand your confusion. Your statement: "Private data is only known to the party sending the data hash and no one else (including members)." is incorrect. The chaincode can require that

Hi Ivan, I think I understand your concern. Let me try to include some comments based on the ongoing discussion: Semantics of data Your example: “my national ID is "1234567", but I am a bad guy and

Are you sure that "LoanchainConsortium" is actually the consortium name you used when you originally spun up the network? ----------------------------------------- Gari Singh Distinguished Engineer,

Hi Ivan, There's a distinction between protecting data from being seen by others and proving the data is legit. Fabric Private Data is designed for the former, and the later is an application design

Add code to print the offending string that is failing and run it again. Alternatively, make sure all of the dict keys in your yaml obey the key character content restrictions.

Honestly using a debugger for this makes little sense.

Ivan Ch Oct 21 #6979 PrivateData is marketed as a data privacy solution in Hyperledger Fabric. Unfortunately, this is just another serious security hole somehow went under the radar, and all

I wanted to avoid that as I don't feel comfortable posting yaml that we are using in production. That's another reason why OP was around a step by step guide on how to debug Go code. I am looking at

Can you post your configtx yaml? I can take a peek as well.

Thanks Dave for opening the bug. Now that's what a helpful response is.

Close... some key within the [Group] config has an illegal character. You can see the valid characters

visit lists.hyperledger.org and you can sign up with your Linux Foundation ID Chris

I might also add that in this case, the error message and backtrace are actually extremely informative "Illegal characters in key: [Group]" I'm guessing it doesn't

Debuggers are overrated. For this sort of thing you just need better error messages. Fabric is full of very cryptic and non-informative error messages. go get

Very often I keep into running cryptic errors with Fabric. E.g., today I ran into this: 2019-10-25 00:20:00.915 UTC [orderer.common.server] Start -> PANI 003 Failed validating bootstrap block:
