# W2Coind - your wallet in the cloud - new manual
# manual version v5.0
# complete instructions how to compile from github sources, in this case w2coin
# which was forked from ?, like a lot of other altcoins. So this should work for other coins, too.

# I succeeded with this on Ubuntu 12.04 and Debian 7.0 x64.

# With swap, it will work even on the smallest Digital Ocean 5$ droplet (0.5GB RAM) !
# What?  "droplet"?  Your own server for 5$ per month!
# A cheap linux virtual server (VPS) in the cloud, created in 55seconds
# Sign up at digital ocean http://tiny.cc/digocean NL USA Singapur
# with code SSD2014 you might get 10$ welcome bonus.


# Create droplet: Choose 512MB; Region close to you; "Debian 7.0 x64".
# Wait for the email with the root password.
# To connect use ssh / putty.exe (data... auto-login: root)

# change password, become superuser
passwd
sudo -i

# update all software (all the installed packages)
apt-get update; apt-get upgrade

# prep the system to be able to git & compile & build
apt-get update; apt-get install git make automake build-essential libboost-all-dev

# might be necessary for other tools & distros (for this wallet on Debian 7 it is not):
# apt-get install yasm binutils libcurl4-openssl-dev openssl libssl-dev

# compiling needs a large SWAP file:
sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=80M count=16
sudo mkswap /swapfile; sudo swapon /swapfile


# For some reason, bitcoind is stuck in an old database version db4.8,
# which is not supported by newest ubuntu / debian anymore, so we get it manually:

# Get db4.8 source, compile and install (takes 5 minutes)

Heartbleed (CVE-2014-0160) infos  - incomplete:

after upgrading your droplet to newest versions by:

you should reboot:

and then check if you have a safe version of openssl
for example "1.0.1e-2+deb7u6" is patched.


Then I guess, all wallets need to be recompiled, using the above instructions?

Here is a strong opinion about not putting wallets onto VPS, and good reasons:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.6043485

What I take from it is to keep no large balances on not self-owned computers.

This was the first launch H20 coin. Don't know yet what applies to the relaunch version.


# h2o coin


# You can build your H2Od wallet on that server.

# h20 coin is a bit special :-) and first caused some errors,
# thanks a lot to mmouse for the help during the chaotic start.
# Hopefully all problems are solved here with this manual.

# read the first posting #1,

I think the total in top is 100% multiplied with the number of cores. Read all the answers to this question http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1032357/comprehending-top-cpu-usage



check your conf file, does it have a
gen=1
for mining? Switch it off by
gen=0


If not, let it run for a few minutes, to download the blockchain, then check again.
I don't know redd, but my wallets use 0.3 - 2 %.


HTH :-)

OK, even when I ran with "reddcoind" it seems the CPU is going over 100%. This is what I see with "top -c":

PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
xxxx root      20   0 2296m 107m  17m S  165  5.2  56:47.97 /usr/bin/reddcoind

Does anyone know why this is?

Thanks for your help!!

I just ran into an issue with the system. One of my partners ended up typing "reddcoind -daemon" which caused the deamon to max out the CPU and MEM on the server. Is there any reason why this is? I assume from reading the documentation here, that "-daemon" isn't required?

Can a Linux expert elaborate on this for me?

Thanks!!!!!!

Yes, sad, some coindesigners don't mention their port choices anymore.
Please report it back when you have found out what it is. Perhaps this help?
https://github.com/dopecoin-dev/DopeCoin/search?q=port


With swap file enabled, it might even run on a 5$ droplet.


I am really happy that it's useful for you.



P.S.: Consider donations :-) www.tiny.cc/drakointip every little bit helps

Another question, what's the default port this runs on for outside connections?

Thanks

OK, I believe it was a memory issue. I was able to get it working by following the instructions from dopecoind
