dash core on ubuntu fails to connect to other nodes

[Yiorgos]

Hi there

I installed dash core an ubuntu server.

The dashd fails to connect to any other server with errors of this types hown in the debug.log:
2018-01-16 19:18:59 Misbehaving: 45.77.58.113:9999 (0 -> 1)
2018-01-16 19:18:59 ProcessMessage(reject, 42 bytes) FAILED peer=66

Any ideas what may be going wrong?

Thanks

I seem to have found the problem: I was using an old version

I installed the new one and now, although it connects to other nodes, there is no progress in syncing ("dash-cli getblockcount" always returns zero)

Please post here output of:

dash-cli getinfo | grep version
dash-cli getconnectioncount

Also try to delete all files in .dashcore folder except wallet.dat and restart dash wallet.

Also make sure port 9999 is open on your firewall. If you are running this at home or on a private network, adding the IP address of a computer on the same network running Dash-qt is a super fast way to sync. Your could probably also choose an IP of a machine known to be good on a VPS and start sync from that. Command (replace the IP address):
dash-cli addnode "192.168.0.6:9999" "add"
