write EPIPE crash in ironfish status -f on v0.1.74

[crProductGuy]

What happened?

I was running a node for several days, and then noticed my status -f window had crashed with the write EPIPE error. That terminal window was hung. I had to Ctrl-C out (windows 11) to be able to re-run ironfish status -f

The node appeared to continue to run for the 2 days since the status command crashed.

I got the database locked error below when I did ironfish debug, plus the actual debug info.

Plenty of free RAM, no other obvious things wrong on this laptop.

Oddly when I stopped and restarted the node, it showed connected to the Iron Fish Network, but showed no block records for 9 minutes. After that I re-started.

status -f is showing continuously under 1M from head, so maybe "inside" the node was keeping up and I should have waited another minute or 2 for the next 10 blocks to be sync'd.

After a 2nd restart of the node, it's syncing blocks and shows 100%, so maybe just caught it when it had nothing new to display

Version

v0.1.74
