environment

Geth
Version: 1.9.7
Architecture: amd64
Protocol Versions: [64 63]
Go Version: go1.13.1
Operating System: Linux

cause:

ethereum update 2.0, starting with block 9069000, found on github that this error

scheme:

updates geth to version 1.9.9. The following provides an update method

centos7 environment

  1. select the latest version to download geth download address 
wget -c https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/archive/v1.9.9.zip
  1. download good, unzip (no unzip download a unzip) 
unzip v1.9.9.zip
  1. then enter the directory, make geth
cd go-ethereum-1.9.9 
make geth
  1. if make geth for a long time no response, probably is the problem of the network, add a proxy, command line input:

export GOPROXY=https://goproxy.cn

  1. and then re-make geth is ok.

  2. after loading, check the version of geth. If it is still the original version, delete the original geth command

    export PATH=$PATH:~/go-ethereum-1.9.9/build/bin/
    $PATH:

    for your geth command 

    vim  /etc/profile
    1. and then refresh 
    source /etc/profile

    check the next version should be ok

    and then back on track, pull block
