Topic: Bitcoin core shutdown fails / hungs (Read 287 times)
This is very likely to be a bug in Bitcoin Core. There is already an open issue for this problem: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/16778.
UPD: Resolved!
Not know in details but problem with my local (ISP) DNS server. When I start bitcoind with local DNS - it fails to shutdown all time.
When I change DNS to 8.8.8.8 - and start bitcoind - shutdown works ideally!
Maybe my ISP blocks something etc. I just don't have time now to explore this question. Maybe later. For now I just changed to use 8.8.8.8 in my local net and problem gone!

Do you have a router? If so, can there be a problem in it?

So it basically wants to re-download the whole chain after you shut it down and start again? Odd I have never observed that issue. Which OS are you exactly running?
This has been happening to me for years too, tested on Windows nodes as well. The only workaround I've found is run a shortcut with this:
-reindex-chainstate
Remove the shortcun when completed. I think it may be related to RPC calls, a lot of people complained for years with problems related to crashes while shutting down and it's still not nailed down for all system it seems. I can't see anything odd on the logs. I have to run that shortcut whenever it starts derping again.
OP should try this. I've seen luke-jr recommend this (albeit on an issue which was a bit different) a couple times for similar problems. (Although OP seems to indicate that he has installed/uninstalled bitcoin core multiple times, so the issue might not be directly related to his Bitcoin Core software but rather... settings/hardware .. ?)-reindex-chainstate

Right now im not sure if uninstalling Bitcoin Core typically in your "uninstall wizard" doesn't necessarily delete the files on the bitcoin folder. And if it does, I guess it not necessary, if keeps happening often then it must be an error involving faulty RAM, so scan your RAM for errors.

Hi everyone!
I have problem with shutting down bitcoin core on linux platform for years with different bitcoin core versions
bitcoind and bitcoin-qt hungs after shutdown it. In bitcon.conf only one line - server=1
Note that is with empty database (like 1st bitcoind run!)

The same configuration with bitcoin testnet shutdowns fine.
Maybe someone can help me with finding where problem is ? I'm very tired with it. Thanks in advance.
