Smart contract upgrade timeout on hyperledger fabric - hyperledger-fabric

When upgrading a smart contract the following error occurs:
Failed to invoke chaincode name:"lscc", error: timeout expired while starting chaincode couponcontract:8 for transaction
As this is an lscc error could anyone help on how to debug or identify what is causing it to break?
API version:
"dependencies": {
"fabric-contract-api": "~1.4.0",
"fabric-shim": "~1.4.0"
},
Environment:
aws t2.micro

Your chaincode is likely taking too long to start / launch. Try increasing CORE_CHAINCODE_EXECUTETIMEOUT. The default is 30s so try increasing to 60s.

I've found the problem.
As the hole network was installed in the same t2.micro instance, the process was consuming all the CPU when upgrading a contract. So, it was breaking duo the time elapsed was causing a timeout.
I changed it to a t2.Medium(2 cpu) and now it is working like a charm!!

Error While Installing Fabric Chaincode: _lifecycle.syscc: no such file or directory

While trying to install chaincode using Fabric v2.1, I am encountering an error. Does anyone face similar issues? My peer is running fine and able to join the channel as well. I am able to list the channel details as well.
Note: I am doing Native installation without using docker images for running orderer and peer.
Highly appreciate for your support and looking forward to hear from you.
Error:
chaincode install failed with status: 500 - error in simulation: failed to execute transaction 44688cc50afeda03e3f5e7735ae650030952477b6bdfce83064582f42bec6c84: could not launch chaincode _lifecycle.syscc: error building chaincode: error building image: failed to get chaincode package for external build: could not get legacy chaincode package '_lifecycle.syscc': open /home/vagrant/ledger/ORG2/peer1-org2/ledger/chaincodes/_lifecycle.syscc: no such file or directory
I got this error after upgrading from 1.4. In my case the problem was in the old config file for the peer.
Make sure you have next lines in your core.yaml:
chaincode:
...
# enabled system chaincodes
system:
_lifecycle: enable

How to solve this error Blockchain_chaincode

Error: endorsement failure during invoke. response: status:500 message:"make sure the chaincode irscc has been successfully instantiated and try again: chaincode irscc not found"
This can occur due to various reasons on reason could be that docker fails to update the volumes in that case you can try docker volume prune
If you could provide the orderer logs then it will be easy to debug

Anchore Engine - Jenkins CI plugin

We are trying to scan our docker images using Anchore Engine Jenkins plugin.
Currently we create our application docker images, push it in our own private local registry and then deploy it in our test environments.
Now, we want to setup docker image scanning in our CI/CD process to check for any vulnerabilities.
We have installed Anchore Engine using the recommended Docker-Compose yaml method given in the Documentation link:
https://anchore.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/36000020729-install-on-docker-swarm
Post installation, we installed the
Anchore Container Image Scanner Plugin in Jenkins.
We configured the plugin as mentioned in the document link:
https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/Anchore+Container+Image+Scanner+Plugin
However, the scanning fails. Error Message as follows:

Unfortunately we are not able to find much resource online to try and resolve the above mentioned issue.
Anyone who might have worked on Anchore-Engine, please may I request to have a look and help us resolve this issue.
Also, any suggestions or alternatives to anchore-engine or detailed steps in case we might have missed anything would be really appreciated.

When images are added to anchore-engine, they are queued for analysis which moves them through a simple state machine that starts with ‘not_analyzed’, goes to ‘analyzing’ and finally ends in either ‘analyzed’ or ‘analysis_failed’. Only when an image has reached ‘analyzed’ will a policy evaluation be possible.
The anchore Jenkins plugin will add an image, then poll the engine for image status/evaluation for the configured number of tries (default 300). Once the image goes to ‘analyzed’ (where policy evaluation is possible), the plugin will then receive a policy evaluation result from the engine.
The plugin will fail the build (by default) if the max retries has been performed and the image has not reached ‘analyzed’, if the image does reach ‘analyzed’ but the policy evaluation is producing a ‘fail’ result (meaning the image didn’t pass your configured policy checks). Note that all build failure behavior can be controlled in the plugin (I.e. there are options to allow the plugin to succeed even if the analysis or image eval fails).
You’ll need to look at the end of the output from your build run (instead of just the beginning from your post), and combined with the information above, it should be clear which scenario is causing the plugin to fail the build.
We have resolved the issue.
Root Cause:
We were not able to establish a successful https connection to URL : https://ancho.re from within the anchore-engine docker container.
As a result the service:policy_engine was not able to start.
https://ancho.re is required to download policy feeds and sync-up periodically. Without these policy anchore-engine won't be able to analyse the docker images.
Solution:
1) We passed a HTTPS_PROXY URL as an environment variable in the docker-compose.yaml of anchore-engine.
We used this proxy URL to bypass restrictions in our environment and establish a connection with https://ancho.re url.
2) Restarted the docker containers.
Finally we got all services up and running including Anchore policy-engine.
FYI:
It takes a while to download all the required Feeds depending on your internet speed.
Lastly, Thanks to the Anchore community for quick responses and support over slack.
Hope this helps.
Warm Regards,
Rohan Shetty

Hyperledger Fabric NodeJS client grpc issue

I am trying to send request to hyperledger fabric blockchain network through my NodeJS test client and I always receive the following:
error: [Remote.js]: Error: Failed to connect before the deadline
[hl] Query has completed, checking results
[hl] Query error: Error: Failed to connect before the deadline
at checkState (/opt/hl/test/frontend/node_modules/fabric-client/node_modules/grpc/src/client.js:838:16)
I am trying to find out what is wrong, there is nothing suspicious in peer logs.
I am using the following version:
HL v1.2.0
NodeJS v8.11.4
grpc v1.14.1
EDIT:
The code that is failing:
var channel = fabric_client.newChannel('mychannel');
var peer = fabric_client.newPeer('grpc://localhost:7051');
channel.addPeer(peer);
var order = fabric_client.newOrderer('grpc://localhost:7050')
channel.addOrderer(order);
channel.queryByChaincode(request) <-- ERROR
The hyperledger is running because I am able to query and invoke chaincode functions through Java SDK.
It seems to be a permission issue. When I start the client side with sudo, assigning it root previlige. The issue is resolved.
Still not sure about the root cause.
sudo env "PATH=$PATH" ./fabric.sh start
Try setting a longer timeout and then re-running it export GRPC_WAIT_FOR_READY_TIMEOUT=6000

developer sample docker compose up timeout

I am trying the Chaincode for Developer samples, and running the docker compose up on the runtime, Terminal 1 - Start the network,
fails
orderer | 2017-11-11 13:48:52.252 UTC [orderer/common/deliver] deliverBlocks -> DEBU 32c [channel: myc] Received seekInfo (0xc420a12e60) start: > stop: > from 172.18.0.3:33048
ERROR: compose.cli.errors.log_timeout_error: An HTTP request took too long to complete. Retry with --verbose to obtain debug information.
If you encounter this issue regularly because of slow network conditions, consider setting COMPOSE_HTTP_TIMEOUT to a higher value (current value: 60).
this is running on ubuntu 16.04. I don't see anything that would stop connections, the compose file looks right. everything was just downloaded yesterday Nov 10.
This is not really a major error in terms of actually running the sample - it's an error occasionally thrown by Docker Compose itself. As the error says, you can simply set the variable prior to running the sample(s):
export COMPOSE_HTTP_TIMEOUT=600
