Value Error on MultiChain Explorer

Question

hi,

I am getting 'Value Error' when I start MultiChain Explorer. The network has three peers. Status of 'chain1' on main page shows 88 Blocks. But when you see summary of 'chain1' it shows 333 Blocks. Why is this error showing up ??

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "Mce/DataStore.py", line 2899, in catch_up
    if not store.catch_up_rpc(dircfg):
  File "Mce/DataStore.py", line 3132, in catch_up_rpc
    store.import_block(block, chain = chain)

    tx['tx_id'] = store.import_and_commit_tx(tx, pos == 0, chain)

    tx_id = store.import_tx(tx, is_coinbase, chain)

    retval = parse_create_stream_10007(data[5:])

    fname = searchdata[:searchdata.index("\0")]

Thanks - it looks like you came across a bug in the Explorer that shows up on your particular blockchain. If you would like us to try to debug and fix this, please stop your node and send a copy of the blockchain directory to multichain dot debug at gmail dot com.
