v0.10.15.x Testing

Not open for further replies.
I PM'd Evan about the number of confirmations, as I couldn't figure out what else I was doing wrong, and he confirmed that yes, you now need 200 confirms, due to tx malleability. (Forthcoming InstanTX?) Crouton testnet MN 176.126.247.191 now started, after 6 hours sleep waiting for the blockchain to roll by...

Code:
successfully started masternode
root@crouton3:~/.darkcoin# ./darkcoind masternode list
{
  "23.23.186.131:19999" : 1,
  "108.61.198.220:19999" : 1,
  "198.50.148.87:19999" : 1,
  "92.222.10.179:19999" : 1,
  "50.248.181.2:19999" : 1,
  "54.68.81.45:19999" : 1,
  "54.68.84.193:19999" : 1,
  "54.68.88.75:19999" : 1,
  "54.68.83.84:19999" : 1,
  "188.226.223.5:19999" : 1,
  "188.226.248.36:19999" : 1,
  "178.62.203.249:19999" : 1,
  "188.226.225.170:19999" : 1,
  "176.126.247.191:19999" : 1
}
For reference, this is where the number of confirmations was changed from 6 to 200 - which means the error message is misleading and WRONG.

Filed it as bug in JIRA :)

I'll bolt on a tMN to my VPS this morning. Quick question guys, can I run a tMN on the same server as my live MN? I'd be using a different user profile obviously, but would I need an additional IP? I'd have thought I'd be ok as testnet runs on a different port?

Yes, you can run a tMN on the same machine as your mainnet nodes. Testnet Masternodes use port 19999.

So just
- create a new user
- switch to this user
- create ~/.darkcoin/darkcoin.conf with testnet=1
- start darkcoind

Additionally you'll have to open port 19999/TCP to 0.0.0.0 on your firewall/AWS security group.

Thanks Flare, so just follow the same procedure as for live MN just put testnet=1 in the config. Cool. I've got two IPs on my vps so I'll set up two tMN's :smile:

progress bar is strange
2.00000002 / 3 * 100% != 100% imho :)
 
Ok, so I was in bed trying to sleep when I last posted, so I'm just trying to set up my masternodes now. I read we now need to wait 200 confirmations before we can start them, however, my wallet says 6 confirmations are needed, and I have 15 so... since I expected the error, no problem, but the notification in the qt wallet is incorrect :D
 
Hey guys, have what seems to be a pretty serious issue to report. Last night I took a couple masternodes from mainnet to testnet, was confused about 200 confirmations, and left the not-activated tmasternodes running to support the network anyway. I noticed on poolhash today that they were both showing as active on mainnet, which I thought was odd. Checked them on drk.mn and they showed as active but with port closed. Sort of shrugged it off, until I just received a payment to one on mainnet, just a few minutes ago.

I *think* i now have two test masternodes running on my VPS. Set them up the same as my mainnet ones (cold windows wallet). How do I check that they are now active? I've got 'masternode successfully started' on my windows wallet when activating for both but when I do a 'masternode list' my IP's don't appear in the list count... Sorry for the dumb question!

****** PLEASE UPDATE TO v10.15.2 (must update to v2 or you'll get forked off the network) *******

- Fixed some issues with the way the masternode payment list was being handled
- Masternode confirmation error now displays 200 required instead of 6
- Changed the pinging settings around
- Block reward reduction is set to have it's first 7% reduction in a couple days on testnet to test that code
