there's your problem. Try to figure out why you can't pull that url from that server.
Open it in your browser to see what's supposed to come back.

no, you don't need it, but you'll have to put up with error messages until you figure out whats up there.

see if running curl without the -s (silent) switch shows you an error message hinting at what's going on.

curl: (60) Peer certificate cannot be authenticated with known CA certificates

I'll look into updating the certs.

Thanks again
 
dashman v0.1.13 released

- added polish translation! (thanks tombtc!)
- fail gracefully when dashninja api is down

This is a significant update, and now requires bash version 4 (which most people already have)

PLEASE let me know if you run into trouble and I'll push a hotfix. [email protected]

Also, if anybody wants to contribute translations, let me know or submit a pull request!

What is the proper procedure for updating the script?
 
I'm trying to do a fresh install, but I want to use udjin's bootstrap to save download time. I noticed that dashman starts dashd immediately after installing, so before running ./dashman install, I created a .dash folder and put just the bootstrap.dat in there.

The problem is "./dashman install" doesn't work because a .dash folder already exists, and "./dashman reinstall" fails because there are no previous dashd/dash-cli files there. Do you have a way to force one of these commands? Thanks!

Just delete or rename the .dash folder, do 'dashman install' then stop dashd and move the bootstrap file into the folder per instructions then do 'dashman restart'

I think dashd just processes the file if it's in place, but I've not used the bootstrap myself so I'm fuzzy on the details.
 
Wow, thanks for the lightning-fast reply! That sounds like a fine solution. You're already spoiling me with all this automatic stuff, I totally forgot I could manually stop the daemon.

In hindsight, it looks like the bootstrap is making much less difference now than in my previous experience with it. I think it's a moot point. Thanks for helping me out though!

You're welcome.

Glad to hear it. Is why I built it. Now everyone can enjoy my laziness!

For masternode.me I just spin them up ahead of time and keep a pool ready for the next signup.
For other needs I copy (rsync) the blocks and chainstate directories from other (stopped) instances.
I haven't timed (or had to wait for) a sync in ages.

Looking good....

Just noticed that there is a rolling internet outage in my area - so far not affected here but I'm only about 24 hours away from MN payout.
See if your "setup" over-comes any "drop-outs"...... nail biting lol - so far so good :-D


edit for spelling
 
Running very stable now for the past 12 days - looking good
 
Every node that I setup from scratch with dashman a few weeks ago is suddenly gone from the MN network today, I had to issue a start-missing. :sad:

Could this have anything to do with dashman being recently updated? When I logged into the VPS dashd was running fine, but dash-cli masternode status showed the "not activated hot node" message, and when I tried dashman status it asked me to update dashman (which i did by pressing "y"), and showed
Code: 
asternode started         : NO
  masternode visible (local) : NO
  masternode visible (ninja) : NO
  masternode address         :
  masternode funding txn     : -
  masternode queue/count     : 0/0
  masternode last payment    : never
  masternode balance         : 0

I know it must be user error on my part somehow, but I'm just trying to troubleshoot to make sure this does not happen again (missed payments suck). I used dashman fully to setup these nodes, and the only thing i changed was the dash.conf later on to add in my masternodeprivkey and lock the dash.conf to read-only and then dashman restart. None of my other nodes which were setup without dashman on the same VPS provider and same location went down.

Any ideas would be helpful. TIA

Sorry to hear that.

No. The recent updates were mostly in the voting code.

If your nodes were online long enough to receive payments, you did everything right.

I can't think of anything helpful.
Dashman doesn't do anything fancy or non-standard when installing or upgrading.
It's a simple download, unpack, start.
And the conf files it builds run all my nodes with no issues for over a year now.

Sounds like your provider did something. Did you check the host uptimes?
