Cannot download large blocks

[primal100]

Cannot complete downloading the blockchain. The issue is with requests to the following url:

https://denaro-node.gaetano.eu.org/get_blocks?offset=72307&limit=1

INFO:denaro:ic| e: RemoteProtocolError('peer closed connection without sending complete message body (incomplete chunked read)')

It was stopping at an earlier block. I modifed the code to reduce the limit paramater and each time it would go a little further. Finally I changed to limit 1 and it failed at block 72307. You can enter the above URL into a browser and see that the request never completes.

Even if you enter that block into the explorer it never loads:

https://explorer.denaro.is/block/72307

The issue is http side. I did some tests and the get_blocks() call to the database instance takes some milliseconds. Anyway the node uses a weird method of retrieving json (check NodesManager.request()) due to an anti-spam system. That's what actually should be improved, as it slows down the get_blocks call by ~50x. Do you have any ideas?

The fact that it does not work in the explorer is because of the full_transactions flag, which I'm already working on

Explorer fixed. get_blocks call should be fixed too. If you can please check and let me know

When I try to run curl 'localhost:3006/sync_blockchain' I just get a null response. Will try to investigate more in next couple of days and will also try with a fresh database and let you know. Could be some data corruption issue left over from the older version.
