All,
I was originally trying to resolve this on Telegram, but haven’t been able to post any of the groups. Here is a synopsis of my current issues when trying to set up my stake pool:
@Linicks You are using a stilled version of the script. The current script you’re running still contains lines to sign the stake pool registration cert. The latest updated version for rc7 does not require an SK to sign the cert. The solution: download the newest version of the script from the following link
You tried to register your stake pool but you account does not have faucet funding. You are close. Make sure you create an faucet funding address using the link below and then run the curl script
After, you need to run the curl script from your terminal
Give it some time for your transaction and your address to register on the testnet blockchain. Then rerun your createStakepool script once you got some faucet funds in your account
@DAPP360_MIKE I’m still having issues accessing the account endpoint on my node. I was able to successfully get Ada from the faucet with the curl command mentioned above, but the account info still isn’t accessible on my node.
@Linicks That error simply means your account could not be found on the testnet blockchain at the time. If it were you would have seen an account balance. Even though the funding transaction was successful, it seems like it was not added to a block that was written to the blockchain. I would run the curl command again and check the explorer after a while. https://explorer.nightly.jormungandr-testnet.iohkdev.io
Also an ambassador was asking for your Telegram account handle. Did you give it to him? Because the best way to resolve your issue is to dig through the Stake Pool Best Practices Tg channel.
Here’s the post to provide your TG handle
@DAPP360_MIKE That makes sense, but it seems like all my requests aren’t being populated to the blockchain. I’ve done this process repeatedly since 7rc3, and I never seem to get funding to the test address that I’ve created. I tried the curl command a couple of times today, and it gave me a “No funds available in faucet account”, but I went to the Shelley test net faucet ( :https://testnet.iohkdev.io/shelley/tools/faucet/ ) and it gave me some Ada:
SUCCESS:
Your request has been processed successfully by the faucet and 10000 ADA has been sent to ca1s5k9nxacw0p2r5jkqv26e2yy3rhkaxypzrffupjdvwxqvsf2mcuzcdmmh0v. Remember that you will incur 0.0011 ADA transaction processing fees on the testnet.
I’ve tried to search the Jormungandr Explorer for the transaction hash(s), but always get an error. I did follow up on getting back onto Telegram here (How do you contact the Cardano Telegram Admins?). Essentially, I created a new TG account, but I have to wait until the grace period is over before I can post. Also, this forum has very low limits to the number of posts and replies that I can have. So I wasn’t even able to communicate with them until that waiting period was over for my first round of use. I do appreciate your help trying to troubleshoot this, but certainly have been a number of bumps alone the way thus far
My advice to you is to test using the latest V0.7 release. Some of the tools for rc3, rc4, etc are nightly build. So they might introduce breaking changes or be inactive. The latest release is where the action is.
This is best handled on the workgroup, as troubleshooting here will be incomplete . Thanks for helping him out
Also, 0.7.0 is not compatible with rc7 - and should not be used unless updated information is made public (exceptions ofcourse - if you’re an advanced user and know how the updates affect you). Also, the user is now in Stakepool workgroup - looking back at his messages across multiple posts, there is not a clear information about genesis, config, (recent log showed he was on 0.7.0 - invalid), and whether the corresponding faucet / explorer are being used.
