If all info is correct, and the indexes are correct, save it, restart your wallet, do "masternode start-many" .. they should work.
 
Thank you. Please tell me, when I need index 0? Or other
The indexes are the numbers in order of your transactions on the explorer. Or on the console if you type "masternode outputs" it will show the tx's and their indexes for you.
 
Hey all, was opening a new VPS on vultr because of problem I got with cheap VPS ;)

And saw that there is Ubuntu 14.10 and 15.04.
Did someone already tried to install a MN on those version of Ubuntu (15.04 and or 14.10), and can confirm me if it's work OK? as all guides indicates to install v14.04.
 
OK I went crazy on the dash.conf file but it says incorrect rpcuser and rpcpassword when I try to check dash-cli getinfo?

You shouldn't change rpcuser/rpcpassword while dashd is running. Kill it and start daemon again.
 
I've deleted dashd and dash-cli but get the same problem. dashd start up but cannot get access to dash-cli. Should I install a new wallet?

Hmm... by "Kill it" I meant literaly "kill -9 $(pidof dashd)" - it must be still running in background with old user and password settings.
If that doesn't help... what does your dash.conf look like?

Ok thanks for that. I actually had the qt wallet open haha *oops*.
I have three MNs that I'm trying to get working again with V12 (not with start-many) but I'm not having much luck.

My dash.conf file on the VPS looks like:
rpcuser=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
rpcpassword=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
listen=1
server=1
daemon=1
logtimestamps=1
maxconnections=256
addnode=23.23.186.131
masternode=1
masternodeprivkey=(masternode genkey)

Am I supposed to have a dash.conf similar to this but with the IP on the local computer as suggested by Tao? If so, I'm not sure how I can do that with multiple MNs.

From a running V11 Masternode, this is what I did:

On Putty:

./dashd stop
rm dashd
rm .dash/peers.dat
rm .dash/debug.log
rm .dash/mncache.dat

On home computer:

Download the latest V12 tar.gz on Dashpay.io, save to desktop.
Extract.

On WinSCP:

Navigate to desktop.Find dash-cli and dashd, and transfer to VPS.

On Putty:

chmod 777 ./dash-cli
chmod 777 ./dashd
./dashd -reindex
WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT for sync
./dash-cli getinfo (If synced, proceed)

On home comp (with the same version installed, from dashpay.io)

Debug console
walletpassphrase YOURPASSPHRASE 120
masternode start YOURPASSPHRASE

Did you perform all of these steps?
 
Remote dash.conf doesn't change. You need to consolidate your MNs to one QT wallet on your PC, then create a masternode.conf on your PC. Here is a good guide on how to do that (keep in mind there is no donation feature anymore):

https://dashtalk.org/threads/reuben...rnodes-from-one-wallet-guide-start-many.4034/
I've used Reuben's guide. It's a good guide but it has an error: outputs indexes are NOT either 0 or 1 like he said. They can be any number starting at 0.

For new users, here's a screenshot of what index numbers look like on the explorer http://explorer.darkcoin.io/chain/Darkcoin
