Failed to make a REST request to my testnet node

Staking & Delegation Operate a Stake Pool
1

Hi, I followed the how to on github to set up the testnet: https://github.com/input-output-hk/shelley-testnet/wiki/How-to-setup-a-Jormungandr-Networking--node-(--v0.5.0)

I think my node is connected to the blockchain. Next I created an address successfully and requested some ADA to my newly created account.
At the moment I stuck at “Checking the address balance”:

./jcli rest v0 account get 12345tg8hurk8e5uxngsdu932n6u7eh5qrwu4h6hf0j48afvpztnydfyqjltsn -h  http://127.0.0.1:3101/api

Output of the node:
Oct 03 15:31:54.495 WARN Error occurred during request handling: Account does not exist, scope: global

Whats wrong? I’ve created the account address why the node isn`t aware of it?

Faucet having some hiccups lately. Your address is empty, so the node doesn’t know it

i have experienced the same issue as mentioned in the following thread, i believe it could be related to bugs when processing the config file or perhaps something else, I’ll be waiting for v5.5 to retest

This is my address ca1s5tg8hurk8e5uxngsdu932n6u7eh5qrwu4h6hf0j48afvpztnydfyqjltsn I changed it for some reason. Have you checked my address with an explorer?

5

not sure there is a external blockchain explorer for the testnet, i suspect if the rest api can’t find it then it doesn’t exist

maybe it is related to the faucet and 0 credits, perhaps psychomb can send you a few testnet ADA to your testnet address to confirm, if it works then maybe he can send me some as well :wink:

I use linux mint 18.2 as well. I think I’ve got the same issue.

I use an other distrib and I got the problem as well.
I think it’s more related with the faucet imo. The faucet does not send any tokens. And for an address to be known by a node or the entire network, it need to be in at least one transaction, from what I understand.

Haha. Send ada pls. I get the same output:

./jcli rest v0 account get ca1s44h5hytev8d9wty220ckglvj7ewm3yetyug8a29pu2lj5dff28sy2yf8yj -h http://127.0.0.1:3101/api

output:

---
counter: 0
delegation:
  pools: []
value: 40000000000

I think the api is fine!

Try to simply restart your node after making the request to the faucet. The node will download the blockchain again. Now it has the account information with the new balance.

Now my account looks like:

counter: 0
delegation:
pools:
value: 20000000000

I am using 5.5 on windows 10 and following the tutorial. The send-money.sh script gives the node rejected error as well.

What do you mean by counter is still at 0?
Counter is at 0 like in the how to. Could you explain what the counter is used for please?

I have waited over an hour after requesting from faucet.
