Morning all,
I am hitting the following snag:
I cloned my Core node to make the relay node (which is syncing fine), but the core node will not start.
If i try to run the node manually i get the YAML error too:
Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you
Hello,
what version are u running? mainnet or testnet?
Cheers,
Mainnet 1.25.1
I’ve tried to shutdown the node unsuccesfully using killall, but it reappears after a few seconds
yes because u are running with systemd.
try this:
sudo systemctl disable cnode
sudo systemctl stop cnode
and now try to start it manually
Thank you. That cleared it, but now i’m getting an IP error
how do u start your node?
what did u set to host address?
cat > $NODE_HOME/startBlockProducingNode.sh << EOF
#!/bin/bash
DIRECTORY=NODE_HOME
PORT=6000
HOSTADDR=0.0.0.0
TOPOLOGY=/home/ubuntu/cardano-my-node/mainnet-topology.json
DB_PATH=\${DIRECTORY}/db
SOCKET_PATH=\${DIRECTORY}/db/socket
CONFIG=\${DIRECTORY}/{NODE_CONFIG}-config.json
cardano-node run --topology ${TOPOLOGY} --database-path ${DB_PATH} --socket-path ${SOCKET_PATH} --host-addr ${HOSTADDR} --port ${PORT} --config ${CONFIG}
EOF
Started using ./StartBlockProducingNode.sh
or sudo systemctl start cardano-node
ok, can u paste again the error received when u tried to start your node?
I can;t see very well the picture above
it’s seems your relay port is closed
Port 6000 is closed on 35.176.63.173.
Ah ok! Yes i know how to sort that now 
OK, now I have 1 more issue.
Inbound on the relay node I the Core node is un-reachable apparently?
The Core and Relay are synced and in the Core I am synced to relay OUT on port 6000.
On the Relay I am synced OUT to Core on port 3001 however on IN, i have the uncreachable to the Core on port 42245.
Any thoughts?
press I in gliveview to find the reasson… .
let me help you:
Ah so don’t worry about it 
as long your Relay is showing at peer connections on BP and vice-versa… and if you see transactions processing on both nodes, yes you should not worry about it.
cardano-cli query ledger-state --mainnet --allegra-era | grep publicKey | grep $(cat stakepoolid.txt)
What should this command return? I can see my pool on Pooltools.io fine.
When it first ran the command I got nothing back, the next few times i got
cardano-cli query ledger-state --mainnet --allegra-era | grep publicKey | grep $(cat stakepoolid.txt)
cardano-cli: Network.Socket.connect: <socket: 11>: does not exist (No such file or directory)
Not sure if this is fine or not. Thanks
Take a look here
