I am following BIOS Boot Sequence, at step 1.12

cleos set contract eosio /[path]/eosio.contracts/build/contracts/eosio.system/

I am not able to set the eosio.system contract it will give me error:

Reading WASM from /[path]/eosio.contracts/build/contracts/eosio.system/eosio.system.wasm...
Publishing contract...
error 2020-01-27T09:14:50.680 cleos     main.cpp:4013                 main                 ] Failed with error: deadline 2020-01-27T09:14:50.677 exceeded by 102us  (2)
deadline 2020-01-27T09:14:50.677 exceeded by 102us

I know the execution limit is 30s by default so I'm using -x to change it but:

:~/eosio.contracts/build/contracts$ cleos set contract eosio /[path]/eosio.contracts/build/contracts/eosio.system/ -x 90s

Error Details:

pending console output:

What should I do? Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Also my eosio version is 2.0 My system details are:

  • Try this command once cleos set contract eosio CONTRACTS_DIR/build/contracts/eosio.system --abi eosio.system.abi -p eosio@active. Need to check this once

  • it seems like version mismatch between the system contract and nodeos. set_proposed_producers function was renamed from set_active_producers, your system contract uses set_proposed_producers while nodeos doesn't provide it try recompiling everything from the same version of source code

This got me as well, it's related to the new WTMSIG_BLOCK_SIGNATURES in eosio 2.0 and the requirement to pre-activate the new eosio chain. There is a pull request which includes a simplified version of the eosio.bios contract called eosio.boot which once deployed gives you the ability to pre-activate and then activate the necessary features. Details can be found here.

Here are the steps I followed:

First clone the branch with the new eosio.boot contract

git clone --branch add-boot-contract https://github.com/EOSIO/eosio.contracts.git

Then run the build script

$./[path]/eosio.contracts/build.sh 

You should now have an eosio.boot directory which includes the "eosio.boot.wasm" and "eosio.boot.abi" which can be deployed with the cleos set contract command above.

You then enable the PREACTIVATE_FEATURE by running

curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8888/v1/producer/get_supported_protocol_features -d '{}' | jq

This output something like this:

...

{
  "feature_digest": "0ec7e080177b2c02b278d5088611686b49d739925a92d9bfcacd7fc6b74053bd",
  "subjective_restrictions": {
    "enabled": true,
    "preactivation_required": false,
    "earliest_allowed_activation_time": "1970-01-01T00:00:00.000"
  },
  "description_digest": "64fe7df32e9b86be2b296b3f81dfd527f84e82b98e363bc97e40bc7a83733310",
  "dependencies": [],
  "protocol_feature_type": "builtin",
  "specification": [
    {
      "name": "builtin_feature_codename",
      "value": "PREACTIVATE_FEATURE"
    }
  ]
},
...

Take the feature digest and run it on your producing node.

curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8888/v1/producer/schedule_protocol_feature_activations -d '{"protocol_features_to_activate": ["0ec7e080177b2c02b278d5088611686b49d739925a92d9bfcacd7fc6b74053bd"]}' | jq

I didn't set any timers, left everything at defaults.

Now you have the PREACTIVATE_FEATURE set on the chain, you can use cleos to activate the WTMSIG_BLOCK_SIGNATURES.

Get a list of the supported features and the digests by running the same command as above, finding the one that relates to WTMSIG, then a command similar to this:

cleos -u http://127.0.0.1:8888 push transaction '{"delay_sec":0,"max_cpu_usage_ms":0,"actions":[{"account":"eosio","name":"activate","data":{"feature_digest":"299dcb6af692324b899b39f16d5a530a33062804e41f09dc97e9f156b4476707"},"authorization":[{"actor":"eosio","permission":"active"}]}]}'

I then loaded all the eosio features and checked them using

curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8888/v1/chain/get_activated_protocol_features -d '{}' | jq

All going well, you should now be able to load the eosio.system contract. In my case, I loaded the eosio.bios contract which was successful, hopefully, it works for you.

More info on the activation can be found here.

  • What step is not working for you? I've never seen this message before.

  • How can I use actions to activate the WTMSIG_BLOCK_SIGNATURES, as no contract has been deployed to eosio yet.

  • Did you try deploying the eosio.boot contract in the "add-boot-contract" branch as above? I did this before pre-activation, then was able to push txn to activate WTMSIG.

    I had to use cleos set contract eosio [path]/eosio.contracts/build/contracts/eosio.system/ -x 80s -p eosio@active. It worked. Thank you so much. @ScottOwen

I am having this exact issue with the boot sequence, I even tried the steps from the answer marked as a solution in this question, and still no luck.

I created a small example of the BIOS script that we're trying to apply at https://github.com/eoscostarica/eos-test The steps to put this project to work are in the readme, the version of the bios script that's on BASH is not complete, I have it until the point where it fails.

Also, I provided a base docker image for running the bios-tutorial example that lives currently under the GH repo for eosio, which gives the exact same error.

Has anyone been able to make this work with 2.0.x?

    Did you enable PREACTIVATE_FEATURE and WTMSIG_BLOCK_SIGNATURES. This might help "eosio.stackexchange.com/questions/5241/…" Also, I had the same error but it works somewhere although it shows the error but again when you try it shows "the exact code is already deployed". Don't know the exact reason but I did set up 3 Private Blockchains & was stuck on the same step but it works after hitting this command several times "cleos set contract eosio [path]/eosio.contracts/build/contracts/eosio.system/ -x 80s -p eosio@active"

  • My all work was on 2.0.X itself.

  • I sent the commands to activate both features and tried to deploy the old version of the contracts, giving me that same error but I'll try to do as you say, to keep trying to deploy the system contract till it works (or it says it's already been deployed) Thanks! Feb 21, 2020 at 12:08
  • You're welcome. Just make sure that both features are activated.
