If your testnet got stuck in 3994, please update.

~~Well the pool is stuck and thats a problem ^^~~
nevermind, working again..

Possible bug.

In my config file, I'm able to set the masternodeaddr=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:9999 as whatever, even if I don't have a daemon running on the IP. The masternode starts successfully, and lists the pseudo IP address under masternode list.

Solo mining testnet. Trashed testnet3 without backing up wallet... I know I know...

this is not address 0, so please send a nice chunk so I can distribute via IRC if necessary. Lots of new people this weekend
miVsNrX5yKaLeLRujEzscNwJSvqdYdYNh7 Thanks Tante!

TanteStefana · May 11, 2014

Hummm, see that's why I'm worried. Even when I've had both my darkcoind instances turned off, I would still see my ip address. So I'm nervous because it seems that there is no way to tell if our masternodes are functioning correctly or not. It probably isn't going to actually function as a Masternode, though it's on the list, unless there is a darkcoind instance running there. Can't Evan implement a voting search function like he did for testnet so we can see if we're getting votes? Hummmmm

I knew I wasnt nuts!! ... yes, this is a must for Masternode Operators ... hmmm, liking that title, very manly and empowering ...

Anyway, Tante, how about doing masternode=0 and firing up the daemon just the same? It could send out "switch off" signal to the network?

Thanks for the coins! Holy cow 50K

TanteStefana · May 11, 2014

Live Long and prosper, you are now rich, LOL

Tried to trick my hubby that those coins were real, almost got him, LOL

I'm not understanding? What happens when you do masternode-0? You mean when i start it on the local wallet? So to get the extra instances of my ip address off, I can do masternode=0 and get them off? That sounds like a plan! I think I'm good right now. Only once on the list at the moment, I think because of the update

yidakee · May 11, 2014

~~Goddamit!! Fresh install of 0.7.2 - not capable masternode... Everytime I eventuallu manage to fix it, devs call for an update loool~~

Running! Now it would be great to learn how to monitor the voting system. Yesterday I had like 5 hours without payout, then we all had to upgrade again, so dont know how soon to expect.
Right now listing masternode, I see 4 on local (including mine) and 3 on remote (excluding mine)

snguyen · May 11, 2014

Code:

./darkcoind masternode list

{
    "99.173.55.130:19999" : 1,
    "117.0.211.71:19999" : 1,
    "123.30.169.57:19999" : 1,
    "104.33.210.231:19999" : 1
}

My masternode is the 3rd one: "123.30.169.57:19999"

I am monitoring the debug.log closely but in 4 hours (~100 blocks), mine has not been elected once. Winners only = [0, 1, 3].

Is there any special reason for this? I dont think I am in this bad luck (<1%), so it could be something wrong in my client side or in electing hash function.

Please advise!

yidakee · May 11, 2014

Over here I have,

locally, mine is last

"99.173.55.130:19999" : 1,
"117.0.211.71:19999" : 1,
"104.33.210.231:19999" : 1,
"54.86.24.204:19999" : 1

remote

"99.173.55.130:19999" : 1,
"117.0.211.71:19999" : 1,
"104.33.210.231:19999" : 1

doesnt show up, and in neither case is showing "123.30.169.57:19999" : 1, from your list.

snguyen · May 11, 2014

Strange. Is there anything different in darkcoin.conf on remote and on local machine?

I am stuck and do not know what should to check next.

snguyen · May 11, 2014

Server's dardcoin.conf:

Code:

listen=1
server=1
daemon=1
logtimestamps=1
maxconnections=256

externalip=123.30.169.57

rpcuser=xxx
rpcpassword=yyy

testnet=1
addnode=23.23.186.131

Local's darkcoin.conf:

Code:

addnode=23.23.186.131
testnet=1
masternode=1

rpcuser=aaa
rpcpassword=bbb

Could you please take a look and see if there is any miss-match with yours?

I've used Tante's guide here: https://darkcointalk.org/threads/remote-masternode-guide.410/ She does not post her config files, so I dont know whether I have missed anything.

yidakee · May 11, 2014

Just to report both client and remote now show the same (5) IP's now. Maybe takes a while to sync up? Doesnt really make sense but ok
What I still dont know is how to monitor if its actually working.

How can I check on the voting system?

elbereth · May 11, 2014

yidakee> In the debug.log file I think I saw the vote indicated everytime a block is received.

TanteStefana · May 11, 2014

yidakee, are your clients and remotes local? Did you put your ip (for the running node, which would be the remote on a regular setup) in the config file? And did you make your port 1999 ?
#----
rpcuser=random_user_name
rpcpassword=random_password
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
listen=1
server=1
daemon=1
logtimestamps=1
maxconnections=256
#--------------------
# change change_this_to_your_ec2_public_ip_ami_public_ip to public ip address which you connected by ssh
externalip=change_this_to_your_ec2_public_ip_ami_public_ip

And
./darkcoind -masternodeaddr=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.:19999

yidakee · May 11, 2014

Yeah, I'm getting payments all right. was such a long day I was popping in and checking the wrong shell window on remote server. duuh...

But the debug.log is huge! Hope Chaeplin cooks something up ...

snguyen · May 12, 2014

The blocks on testnet stop at #4601. Both on my remote and local server. Is there anyone here have higher block?

yidakee · May 12, 2014

stuck at 4601

TanteStefana · May 12, 2014

Oh, I didn't say anything here yet, but your comment about the debug log got me looking at it, and I realized that we can see if our masternode is functioning via it. All we have to do is look for our IP address via a search of the document, then find out what number it is (1-100 etc... depending on how many masternodes there are) And then start searching like this: winner 14 if 14 is the number of your masternode on the list. If you've won an election, you know you are running your masternode properly.

So what causes testnet to go down like that? Is nobody mining? I think I stopped my miner yesterday or something? Or is the main node down?

Ah, yes Tante, but that file is huge. You can also tail it, a just stare at the screen haha

One thing is monitor its alive and active, you can also do that withe address 0 on the block explorer. But I was referring to performance, as in, checking the voting system.

Yeah, just checked, its been stuck for 9 hours, yet eduffield +2 are mining testnet pool. Another update must be around the corner...

Hello again! I was stuck at block 3994 so I deleted testnet3. No I have no saved my private address :/ Can someone send me 1000 DRK on mhdpfBmD634c4NSxv8aN5EbeUkx4T3n4rN ?
thanks in advance!

not sure if I'm still on the right testnet chain, but tried to send you 1k DRK just now

No. Not yet. I'm working through that right now.
