I was able to compile the 8bitd. But then nothing works.... how to start the server correctly to sync. I tried to start it without params. Just hanging in the process-list. Tried to generate a wallet-address. Blinking cursor. The tutorial in the thread https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.25225323 helped, but what is the correct order... or just to wait. When i start the server it asks for a masternode key, but the command to generate one shows "error: couldn't connect to server". I really don't know what I'm doing wrong and appreciate any help.

Thanks in advance!

Hi all... Where can I download the wallets from? The URL's in this thread and many other threads are pointing to a dropbox location that is not reachable.

Double digits posts on this. Please advise

My swap is 16gb (it was the same with the 13 instances)
Big swap does not help here - slow i/o operations (hdd / ssd) will lag block processing. A swap here is only to keep nodes alive in case of bunch of orphans / weird blocks - OOM prevention. Otherwise swap should not be used what can be achieved by using small swappiness value.

Yesterday i configured 12 mns and a staking wallet on an old (but quite good) Asus Aspire 5740G laptop (i7, 8GB ram, 256gb ssd) and ubuntu 16.

After leaving it be for 12 hours, i came to the conclusion that i have to reduce the number of instances cause in time some of the nodes get out of sync.
Logically, the laptops resources are not enough to handle that many instances (even if its cli instances) running simultaneously.

soooo i'm gonna stop 3 of the 12 mns and put the coins to the staking wallet unless someone has a better idea in here  Grin

any suggestions are welcomed and appreciation is appreciated cause its a bit sad to kill my babieees  Cry Cool
12 instances is way too much for 8GB. I suggest 6-8 ones + 8GB swap + minimal swappiness (1-10).
Rationale:
- 500 - 1500MB per node
- swap to do not let wallet die too fast in case of weird block / orphans shit
- minimal swappiness to do not kill SSD when blockchain moves smoothly

However, the best thing is to keep multiple masternodes within one physical node. There was a patch published here.


yeah i saw the patch in discord? telegram? cant remember but didnt have the time  to implement it yet. life is running superfast.

i killed 3 of my mns. the machine works great with 9 cli instances (mns) and 1 gui (staking).
My swap is 16gb (it was the same with the 13 instances)

I finally got my masternode UP Grin How do I can check if is working fine? Any advice?

You can try:

cli masternode outputs

It should show not-empty TX outputs

If wallet is not synced, you may need to wait till it fully synced, and the restart the wallet to see proper output from this command.

As i ask other people who run masternodes on discord about output. Many of us don't see any outputs, so i think this is not an issue.

I was able to compile wallet using these instructions: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.25225323
Then I got masternode working by adding following lines to init.cpp:

Code:
       } else {
            return InitError(_("You must specify a masternodeprivkey in the configuration. Please see documentation for help."));
        }
        // ------------------------- start -------------
        std::string err;
        masternodeConfig.read(err);
        if (!err.empty())
            LogPrintf("error while parsing masternode.conf Error: %s \n", err);
        // -------------------------- end -------------
    }

    fEnableDarksend = GetBoolArg("-enabledarksend", false);
Without these lines it doesn't read masterned.conf, therefore it will not be able to find stake coins.
Not sure how everybody else's wallets are working without this fix. Mystery....

Those lines are needed only if you use "masternode.conf". Using it saves you some burden if you run multiple nodes and want to control them from a single point, but in general you can perfectly run a masternode without using that file.

BTW, I published that patch few months ago here on the thread, so maybe some guys are using it too.

You can try this command:

-cli masternode count

If that number is less than 300 you have to stop and restart the daemon to let it resync. In the worst case you have to replace the blockchain with a backup, unless there is a smarter way to get back on the right chain.

There is a guide on the website, on discord and also on this thread (like 40 pages ago, use the research)
