Greetings, monero devs. I'm writing a short article about describing the purpose and basic usage of the seed offset parameter to restore_deterministic_wallet. I've noticed that the restore wallet function of the monero GUI does not allow users to input a seed offset. Is there a particular reason this functionality was omitted, or has it simply not been implemented yet?

No particular reason AFAIK.

thanks mooo. Any idea if there are plans to add it in at some point?

Whenever someone does it. Which is likely going to be soon now that you've mentioned it's missing :)

sweeeeet

happy to say multisig with subaddresses works :)

speaking of multisig

when calling make_multisig, it appears that if we fail to provide a password, the multisig wallet will become unusable -- the old password doesn't work, an empty password doesn't work

this is from the api, simplewallet does its magic

i'd like to, unless otherwise specified, keep the same password as before when doing the conversion to multisig.. which is what I assumed would happen.. monero-wallet-rpc shows this error, I don't think i'd seen it before: W Failed to open portable binary, trying unportable

there is no way to retrieve the current password from the wallet-rpc api right?

actually, the same happens even with giving a password argument .. bug?

Yes. An empty password should work fine. A non empty password should also work fine. Make sure it's not user error though, password not working seems likely to be that.

Any way to get more details on a test failure from the GitHub CI workflow?

click on it

Heh, I know

should display logs

In particular, I'm looking at this push's logs: github.com/SarangNoether/monero/actions/runs/36789639/workflow

And unfortunately "RPC functional test failed" isn't terribly useful :D

(my local functional tests keep hanging)

did you rebase to master?

try rebasing and then force pushing

maybe you created the branch a while ago while tests were failing

Good point; perhaps shouldn't have just assumed master tests would have succeeded at fork time

also `pip install requests` should fix your local issue with functional tests

Yeah, already did that before testing

Odd that it just hangs on that test

been running for at least 12 hours

hmm that does not sound right

Hopefully it's just a rebase issue :)

It could be some bizarre local configuration problem, since at least the CI workflow completes within a couple of hours as expected (though with that failure)

6

Got 2 hours of popcorn?

no :(

sarang: IIRC functional tests were recently fixed (1 week ago) in master so this should fix it.

Ooh, interesting; did not know that

Well, it would fix any issues _other_ than whatever my branch might introduce (new tx proofs pass crypto tests, but also have some changes in wallet that aren't otherwise covered)

selsta: all good after the rebase!

nice

could someone setup a local monero-wallet-rpc with --wallet-dir and curl'ing like a boss (getmonero.org/resources/developer-guides/wallet-rpc.html), create_wallet (with a password), prepare_multisig (2nd wallet - do it together with a new wallet with simplewallet for example), make_multisig (give it the same password as in create_wallet).. then try to close_wallet and open_wallet with the password? does it work? if you could pm me

that, trying to work something out
