I’m stuck on Stage #yg4 Not entirely sure how this stage differs from the previous two stages (#zn8, #hd5). But am encountering an error when running the tests. What am I missing? Here are my logs: ```auto remote: Debug = true remote: remote: [tester::#YG4] Running tests for Stage #YG4 (Replication - Command Processing) remote: [tester::#YG4] Master is running on port 6379 remote: [tester::#YG4] $ ./your_program.sh --port 6380 --replicaof "localhost 6379" remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Waiting for replica to initiate handshake with "PING" command remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Received bytes: "*1\r\n$4\r\nPING\r\n" remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Received RESP array: ["PING"] remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] Received ["PING"] remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Sent "PONG" remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Sent bytes: "+PONG\r\n" remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Waiting for replica to send "REPLCONF listening-port 6380" command remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Received bytes: "*3\r\n$8\r\nREPLCONF\r\n$14\r\nlistening-port\r\n$4\r\n6380\r\n" remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Received RESP array: ["REPLCONF", "listening-port", "6380"] remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] Received ["REPLCONF", "listening-port", "6380"] remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Sent "OK" remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Sent bytes: "+OK\r\n" remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Waiting for replica to send "REPLCONF capa" command remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Received bytes: "*3\r\n$8\r\nREPLCONF\r\n$4\r\ncapa\r\n$6\r\npsync2\r\n" remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Received RESP array: ["REPLCONF", "capa", "psync2"] remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] Received ["REPLCONF", "capa", "psync2"] remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Sent "OK" remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Sent bytes: "+OK\r\n" remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Waiting for replica to send "PSYNC" command remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Received bytes: "*3\r\n$5\r\nPSYNC\r\n$1\r\n?\r\n$2\r\n-1\r\n" remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Received RESP array: ["PSYNC", "?", "-1"] remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] Received ["PSYNC", "?", "-1"] remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Sent "FULLRESYNC 75cd7bc10c49047e0d163660f3b90625b1af31dc 0" remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Sent bytes: "+FULLRESYNC 75cd7bc10c49047e0d163660f3b90625b1af31dc 0\r\n" remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] Sending RDB file... remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] master: Sent bytes: "$88\r\nREDIS0011\xfa\tredis-ver\x057.2.0\xfa\nredis-bits\xc0@\xfa\x05ctime\xc2m\b\xbce\xfa\bused-mem°\xc4\x10\x00\xfa\baof-base\xc0\x00\xff\xf0n;\xfe\xc0\xffZ\xa2" remote: [tester::#YG4] [handshake] Sent RDB file. remote: [tester::#YG4] [propagation] master: > SET foo 123 remote: [tester::#YG4] [propagation] master: Sent bytes: "*3\r\n$3\r\nSET\r\n$3\r\nfoo\r\n$3\r\n123\r\n" remote: [tester::#YG4] [propagation] master: > SET bar 456 remote: [tester::#YG4] [propagation] master: Sent bytes: "*3\r\n$3\r\nSET\r\n$3\r\nbar\r\n$3\r\n456\r\n" remote: [tester::#YG4] [propagation] master: > SET baz 789 remote: [tester::#YG4] [propagation] master: Sent bytes: "*3\r\n$3\r\nSET\r\n$3\r\nbaz\r\n$3\r\n789\r\n" remote: [tester::#YG4] [test] Getting key foo remote: [tester::#YG4] [test] client: $ redis-cli GET foo remote: [tester::#YG4] [test] client: Sent bytes: "*2\r\n$3\r\nGET\r\n$3\r\nfoo\r\n" remote: [your_program] 2024/12/11 04:40:58 INFO Received msg from chan info="*2\r\n$3\r\nGET\r\n$3\r\nfoo\r\n" remote: [your_program] 2024/12/11 04:40:58 INFO No key found with key info="[GET foo]" remote: [tester::#YG4] Received: "" (no content received) remote: [tester::#YG4] ^ error remote: [tester::#YG4] Error: Expected start of a new RESP2 value (either +, -, :, $ or *) remote: [your_program] 2024/12/11 04:40:58 ERROR error reading from connection err="read tcp [::1]:6380->[::1]:50442: read: connection reset by peer" remote: [your_program] 2024/12/11 04:40:58 ERROR error reading from connection err=EOF remote: [tester::#YG4] Test failed remote: [tester::#YG4] Terminating program remote: [tester::#YG4] Program terminated successfully remote: remote: View our article on debugging test failures: https://codecrafters.io/debug ``` And here’s a snippet of my code: ---

Hi @jason-gill00, here’s the difference: | Stage | | | --- | --- | | Single-replica propagation #zn8 | Your code functions as the master | | Multi Replica Command Propagation #hd5 | Your code functions as the master | | Command Processing #yg4 | Your code functions as a **replica** | ---

Still not following. In #zn8, it mentions propagating the SET commands from the master to the replica and that the replica should be able to update it’s state. Is that now what’s this stage is asking for? To test locally, I started the master and replica. Sent SET commands to the master and validated that the replica was updating it’s state by doing: redis-cli -p 3800 GET key (3800 is the port the replica is running on) - Is this not the correct way to test this stage (outside of just running the tests) ---

> Still not following. In #zn8, it mentions propagating the SET commands from the master to the replica and that the replica should be able to update it’s state. Is that now what’s this stage is asking for? Yes, in #zn8 your code acted as the master, while the replica was provided by us. In #yg4, it’s your turn to implement the replica. * * * > To test locally, I started the master and replica.

If you’d like, I can take a look at your code to help identify any potential issues. ---

> [@andy1li](#): > > #yg4 Yea, that would be very helpful. Thanks. Testing it locally using the method I mentioned seems to be working just fine, so not sure why the tests aren’t passing. Ah ok. I misunderstood #yg4. In that stage I implemented the replica aswell ---

The issue might be related to `InitiateHandshake`, where most of the responses are not verified. **We cannot assume that exactly one command will be read from a connection.**. For example, the empty RDB file from the master could slip through and cause troubles. ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex003/uploads/codecrafters/original/2X/3/3a6bc10aadb7d468505d987b2fafa794211ce468.jpeg) Additionally, the tests for **Stage #VM3 (Replication - Receive handshake (2/2)** are failing. ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex003/uploads/codecrafters/original/2X/1/1556232930415b0a38cd9459b8409ee4be0a9003.jpeg) ---

> [@andy1li](#): > > he responses are not verified. **We cannot assume that exactly one command will be r** I updated my InitateHandshake fn and still can’t quite get this stage to work. What do you mean exactly by the responses are not verified. I fixed my implementation and the previous stages should be passing now ---

I ran your latest code, and it seems to pass the previous stages now! 🎉 Could you confirm if your code can handle these scenarios: 1. Properly processing the RDB file sent by the master. 2. Handling multiple commands within a single read operation. ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex003/uploads/codecrafters/original/2X/7/770bccd2184f73694979604516f7bc023e448ea4.jpeg) * * * > What do you mean exactly by the responses are not verified. Oh, I meant that the responses from the commands below are not being verified. ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex003/uploads/codecrafters/original/2X/c/ca203b5d2b40f01ec3f74490f770f58eae27776e.png) The responses are simply printed out, but there’s no actual verification to ensure they’re correct: ```go fmt.Printf("Received response from master: %s\n", string(response[:n])) ``` ---

Still stuck on this step. I updated my implementation to validate the responses in the handshake. How should the replica process the RDB file sent by the master? I don’t think that step was mentioned in the previous stages (as the mentioned RDB file is empty) My code should handle multiple commands, but not following what you mean by handling multiple commands within a single read operation. Can you clarify? ---

> How should the replica process the RDB file sent by the master? Your code can safely ignore the RDB file since it’s empty. Just make sure it’s skipping the correct number of bytes (88 in this case). > My code should handle multiple commands Yes, it seems to be working in this respect. * * * I ran the latest version of your code. It’s no longer passing the **#YZ1 (Expiry)** stage. ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex003/uploads/codecrafters/original/2X/0/0c222960f5e6819b6dfb721a7c18e3bd2c0ad248.jpeg) Suggestions: 1. Use [our CLI](https://docs.codecrafters.io/cli/installation) to test against previous stages by running: ```auto codecrafters test --previous ``` 1. Focus on fixing the early stages first, as later stages depend on them. ---
