Something wrong with getBlock

[lipangit]

• Version: 4.4.1
• Python: 3.7.0
• OS: osx

When I connect my local geth --rpc

and I get the result

But I use web3.js to connect the same rpc in my local server

I get the result

I thing web3.py is wrong What can I do ?

[lipangit]

and web3.eth.getBalance(address) every address's ballance are 0

[voith]

is your node synced? what does web3.eth.syncing say?

[lipangit]

AttributeDict({'currentBlock': 6050271, 'highestBlock': 6050347, 'knownStates': 0, 'pulledStates': 0, 'startingBlock': 6050271})

[lipangit]

run the scrpt again 20min later, I got the same result

[lipangit]

geth --rpc

That is the commend to start rpc server

[voith]

@lipangit your node is syncing. w3.eth.syncing will return false once the node is in sync.
Once your node is in sync, all operations will work as expected.

[lipangit]

Do you mean I just wait untill w3.eth.syncing = false ?

[lipangit]

but why eth.getBanlance() every address is = 0

[lipangit]

What can I do next

[voith]

but why eth.getBanlance() every address is = 0

Balance is something that is queried from the state trie. Till your state trie gets synced your balance will be shown as zero! read this.

[lipangit]

@voith I will collect that issue and learn It carefully

Thank you
