Okay, I get how to install it, but how do I actually run it so obelisk will sync with testnet instead of mainnet?

what I said on the previous page: " If you run 'sx-install.sh --help' then it shows you some usage info. "

Regards,
RTFM.

And tell me where it mentions anything about testnet. It doesn't. I would RTFM if there was a FM.

Code:

~$ bash install-sx.sh --help

[+] Welcome to S(pesmilo)X(changer).

try --enable-leveldb

also as per your question before, try installing under different users and configuring your environment variables accordingly (as install-sx.sh tells you).

Hm, I think I figured out what I need to do, but now I'm getting the following when building obelisk:

Code:

In file included from worker/main.cpp:8:0:
worker/node_impl.hpp:60:5: error: ‘leveldb_blockchain’ in namespace ‘obelisk::bc’ does not name a type

If you run 'sx-install.sh --help' then it shows you some usage info. You can either pass the installation prefix and data dir to the install script or just edit the install script variables at the top. That would be one way to achieve what you would like, as you could have one datadir /srv/obelisk-main and another /srv/obelisk-test - I don't know if you need different binaries but it wouldn't hurt as you can test new versions then without affecting the main copy.

Forgive me if this is not the best location to post about Obelisk.

How do you install obelisk mainnet and testnet side by side on the same computer?

I have used the install_sx.sh script to install Obelisk mainnet. I am running Linux.

Thanks.

Because the old repo links haven't been fixed, I decided to take another look at the install-sx script. I fixed several bugs (the wrong repo links and sx always failing on Arch due to being run with python3), simplified the logic, and added a feature (you can now use a command-line switch to build and install the develop branches of the repos.)

Before I post it, I want to say, I am not the greatest at bash, and I did not test this. That means look it over before running it.

You can find it here: https://ottrbutt.com/tmp/wolf-install-sx.sh

OK, will you merge this with the latest version, and I will commit it to git for you.

Last changes (see veox):
https://github.com/spesmilo/sx/commits/develop

Download:
https://github.com/spesmilo/sx/raw/develop/install-sx.sh

BTW we have --develop switch now in install-sx.sh

soon I'm going to be removing the old electrum deterministic wallet commands. people should switch to using the newer HD commands which all wallets (electrum included) are adopting.

the installation script at http://sx.dyne.org/install-sx.sh needs to be updated because the libbitcoin, libwallet and obelisk git repos have moved.

Just made a couple of changes to the multi-signature GUI... essentially sanity testing to make sure that any pubkeys that you enter as part of the multisig transactions are valid addresses. Next I will be integrating custom M-of-N multisig transactions (upper limit: 15 of 20) into the GUI. From what I understand, 15 of 20 is the scripting constraint... feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

After that, I'll finally add into the GUI the ability to create transactions offline, signing and broadcasting at the click of a few buttons.

I'm not sure 15 of 20 is the limit, but I'd test this out to see what you're actually able to submit.

The shell script needs to be updated for the new repos. Also, maybe a --develop switch?

ok, as long as it's working. I'll setup some machines for testing, to reproduce the issue and will work on this. I think new blockchain arch in coming month(s) will fix this.

ok, do you want to give me temp access to have a look and then later you can revoke my access?

put my ssh pubkey below in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
I only need user access (no root)

My Obelisk server is syncing, and with 4GB of RAM on my VPS, it's STILL getting whacked by the OOM killer. Could you possibly do something about that?

OK, we should have a fix for this (things should drop blocks not go OOM) but it isn't easy.

Use an SSD, not a spinning disk. It isn't built for spinning disk.

Eventually we should have a way to distribute the blockchain, and I'm looking for good suggestions for how people could download it from a server. I'm sure people wouldn't appreciate untarring many gigabytes.

BTW obelisk.unsystem.net is running for the public. I try to keep that one up.
