2053

hi everyone currently still running on testnet. Sync process takes many hours, so i download db from csnapshots.io. The problem is cnode fail to start with downloaded db. When i delete db from csnapshots.io then cnode starting again but synching from beginning. Can someone tell the problem? I want to speed up the sync. Why i can’t use downloaded db.

Hey Alex i upgraded my relay to the latest Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS and I can’t start the relay. I’ve tried rebuild the relay using ./prereqs.sh -f but I’m still having the same problem any Ideas before I do a complete rebuild?

did you chown and chmod the file?

2057

Hmm, I don’t know what to say… did u update the OS packages? Are all the node files there ?

2058

Yes, as far as I can tell… I’ll just do complete rebuild.

Can CLNI be installed on a node that is already built and running?
I am interested in using the slot leader / expected blocks tooling.

I setup a stake pool on Preview with the scripts but would like to use them on mainnet.

For a relay on Preview, the toplogy file is fomatted differently. Do I enter the BP IP address in there or leave it as default?

Yeas, can be; there are 2 methods:

  • install cncli or
  • use Cardano-CLI Query

for 2nd option should be more easy

Thanks. I have tried the Cardano -cli method, it hoses up my BP. I am looking for something easier on the node resources.

2062

Both method will need aditional ~10G RAM

Ok.

I saw a python script someone created to run with less resources, can’t find it now. I’ll do some research, thanks! You answered my question.

Hi @Alexd1985,
I was building node version 1.35.4
The following errors occur
“CallStack (from HasCallStack):
error, called at src/Distribution/Client/CmdInstall.hs:474:33 in main:Distribution.Client.CmdInstall”
cardano-adress and bech32 not found in ~/.cabal/bin folder.

But when building node version 1.35.3 no error occur and everything work.
So i can’t import mnemonic wallet with 1.35.4 node.
Both cardano node use GHC 8.10.7 and Cabal 3.6.2.0
Can u find the issue, cause i want to run Cnode 1.35.4 and import non CLI wallet.
Already check if this command (. “${HOME}/.bashrc”) was configured
Thanks
error

Thanks! And hats off to you for sticking around for so long!
I’m playing around on the testnet :grin:

Hi guys,
regarding with my issue, i’ve found the answer from the developer.
They stated 1.35.4 isn’t supported yet on guild-ops repo.
We will wait 1.35.5 for the script changes. So better for keep using 1.35.3 for now.

If u have now 1.35.3 with importing wallet option availble, just update the node to 1.35.4 and should be fine

Ok @Alexd1985 thanks.

U can use my software upgrade script for upgrading the nodes… I just checked on my relay and I have wallet import available on 1.35.4

don’t use o option when u make the upgrade because u already have the bin for cardano-address and bech32

Cheers,

I had the same issue. 1.35.4 gave me the error:
error, called at src/Distribution/Client/CmdInstall.hs:474:33 in main:Distribution.Client.CmdInstall” and bech32 was nowhere to be seen.

I followed your suggestion and installed with 1.35.3 which gave me bech32 and then updated for 1.35.4 without the -o option.

Everything seems to work and my pool is registered correctly. :metal:
