Upgrading from 0.6.5 to 0.6.6 ends with (CryptoClient) uncaught exception

[stronk7]

Describe the bug
Trying to upgrade from sdk 0.6.5. to 0.6.6 consistently get the follow error on startup):

node:internal/process/esm_loader:97
    internalBinding('errors').triggerUncaughtException(
                              ^

[Error: Failed to deserialize or serialize a JSON value missing field `version` at line 1 column 6856] {
  code: 'GenericFailure'
}

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. With existing and working bot, already using encrypted rooms, just update to 0.6.6:
   1. npm update matrix-bot-sdk
   2. npm ior npm ci
2. Run the bot and look to logs (LogLevel.DEBUG).
3. Process ends with the error commented above.

Expected behavior
The bot starts working normally, like it was with 0.6.5.

Additional context
The M_NOT_FOUND errors are pre-existing, happening always, as many times as encrypted rooms the bot is in (seems like). I imagine that those errors are unrelated with the new one, reported here, causing the bot to stop on startup.

Ciao :-)

I'm not able to reproduce this, unfortunately.

Adding the following to the top of your bot's main file might reveal the actual contents of /sync though, which should help narrow down what the underlying crypto library is concerned about:

LogService.muteModule("Metrics");
LogService.trace = LogService.debug;
LogService.setLevel(LogLevel.TRACE);

Hi,

really, there isn't anything new when I apply for those 3 lines. Here there are the complete logs with them enabled, apart from some "own" initialisation stuff that I add at the beginning (and omited in the original report) the error happens almost immediately.

I'm also getting this error, clearing persistent storage and logging in again solves it but I'm hoping not to have to force everyone to do that. What do you need to help reproduce?

[stronk7]

For the records a few days ago I proceeded to update out staging bot to v0.7.1 and completely remove the storage (to get a new token and so on). It has been running @ staging without problem (just a lot of "Can't find the room key to decrypt the event" at the beginning, until it got everything updated).

So, today, I've been brave enough to apply for the same (update and delete storage) with the prod bot, and it's up and, apparently, running ok. I'll keep monitoring it, but for sure the problem reported in this issue (immediately after starting) is not happening anymore.

Ciao :-)

[stronk7]

Update: We have 0.7.1 running (after deleting storage) here since a few days ago in prod, and it seems that this problem isn't happening anymore. We are facing #346 a few times (old-known issue for us), but other than that, all ok.

Ciao :-)
