InvalidStateRoot Error on private chain

[iFA88]

Trying to setup a own chain with geth and parity.
I have successfully created for every client a genesis block below can you find the 0 block details. The hash are matching!
This 2 client is running on my debian VPS:

The connection is in every type enstablished and worked. (desktop geth -> vps geth, dekstop parity -> vps parity, desktop geth -> vps parity, dekstop parity -> vps geth)

I have mined few block with VPS geth native miner.

When i connect from my desktop PC with Parity TO VPS geth node, then I get this error:

2016-10-21 15:55:43  Stage 4 block verification failed for #1 (c3ab…2e9d)
Error: Block(InvalidStateRoot(Mismatch { expected: 624de0df944ced0f9ccbbd8426ab66fd7d14e58ac39bab5faeb13b9e17ebb561, found: 56e81f171bcc55a6ff8345e692c0f86e5b48e01b996cadc001622fb5e363b421 }))

When i connect from my desktop PC with Geth TO VPS geth or parity then works great.

Here is the #1 block:

If anyone need more info ask them.

You probably need built-in accounts in the spec for a contract to run properly. Try adding these:
https://github.com/ethcore/parity/blob/master/ethcore/res/ethereum/frontier_test.json#L37-L41

[iFA88]

i dont run any contract, i dont need them.

[rphmeier]

@iFA88 That's fine, but geth will include them as accounts in their state trie and your state trie will mismatch (notice that the error has "found" root of 56e8... -- that's sha3("").)

If you want geth and parity to work together then you'll have to include them.

[iFA88]

i use now this parity genesis.json :

but i got different hash like geth :/

Can anyone help me which parameter should i use to make the same genesis block as on geth?

@iFA88 Hi, i've met the same problem with 'InvalidStateRoot' Error in geth & parity cross-client syncing, and i tried both your geth and parity genesis block file, but the error seems still there.

can you give me some suggestions on solving this problem?

[iFA88]

@achillesss Hi! Sadly I don't remember what was the exact problem. But I know you need the builtin accounts with 1 wei. If you don't has it, then the contracts with these calls would be thrown.
