Hi,
And what’s the issue?
Cheers,
I can only this page all over 10 days.
I can’t know what is issue.
Ok, it looks like the node is syncing (downloading the DB) … can take a while …
Use glive to have a better luck
So is “15 days” good state ?
15 days is much I believe; without glive is hard to see the process…
U can see the status of sync with the commnand
vmi438734:~$ cardano-cli query tip --mainnet

This is preprod testnet. So I already did it.
But it says “Socket does not exist”.
This is why I posted this article.
There are 2 reasons:
- the node doesn’t start and the socket file was not created
- u must export the socket path (if the node started)
- I already have exported socket path.
2.the socket db is created in the db folder.
How can I check whether the node is started or not ?
you can download the latest DB from: Cardano Blockchain Snapshot
Sorry, but is this for preprod network ?
Or others ?
Thanks,@lauris
Sorry, but I am looking for testnet db.
If you let me know, I will be happy.
Regards
you can find the db for mainnet and also for testnet (ckeck on top-right corner menu)
Cheers,
Great. @lauris ,@Alexd. Thank you.
I will check all.
I have downloaded, but I can’t find node.socket file.
After I download the db, how do I have to do for syncronizing?
Why do u need the file? The socket file is there only when the node is started, and it will be removed (after few time) when the node stoped
If so, how can I set socket PATH ?
I have seen that it needs node.socket file in the PATH.
For example, ```
export CARDANO_NODE_SOCKET_PATH=“$HOME/cardano/testnet-db/node.socket”
But with the downloaded files, how can I do ?
You can set that environment variable and export it even if the file does not exist at the moment. It is just a string that you configure.
If you know that the file will be in this position once the node is started set it in whatever file you use to configure your command line environment, so that cardano-cli
knows where to look.
I have tried, but same error.
If it is the correct socket path, it is totally possible that the node is still starting and did not create the socket path at that point. But it’s also possible that you configured your node to use another socket path. Only you can know how you configured your node.
Monitor its log with journalctl
(or what ever startup and logging technology you chose to use for your node).
