ok, do I specified --fee 0
U need to repeat the steps from the guide but this time without registration cost (500ada)
Alexd,
Thanks, I’ll do that. I saw in the manual that changes like this take 2 epochs to take effect. That’s like 10 days. Is that right?
Nope, should be solved almost instantly
ok, I see what I’m doing
I need to change the script in chapter 12 a little bit to reduce the deposit that was already paid, otherwise I end up with a negative and the transaction cant go thru
I got it now I think
Thanks very much
I think I will build some script or text interface to make these steps easier but the problem will be the keys in the air gap node. I’ll need to put them on the producer node but I can use openssl to encrypt the keys with password. Let me sit on it for a while.
Thanks again
Alexd,
I put my ADA on ABC to stake. Thanks for helping me out.
Do you know how to solve this warning " Relay node 51.81.84.43:6000 is missing in topology.json"
I checked my mainnet-topology.json file and it does have 51.81.84.43 in as my relay.
Its been about 10 hours since the updater started and its set to run once per hour. Do you think it just needed more time?
AlexD,
topology issue worked itself out. Thanks
now that my metadata and hash and margin are fixed, I don’t see the errors anymore in pool.vet.
but it still doesn’t show up in Daedalus. Do you know what else it could be?
Thanks
Now is ok, the pool should be visible on dardalus; delegate the ADA to ur pool… or u can choose mine
Cheers

AlexD,
Thanks so much for the help.
I registered on pooltool.io, I don’t see a block height assigned on this current epoch, does it mean my pool won’t be mining at all this epoch. I need to get more ada to stake?
Thanks
Did u checked with cncli, right?

Yes, I’ve the “sudo systemctl start cncli-sync.service” and “sudo systemctl start cncli-sendtip.service” installed and schedule the crontab job to run
But right now I’ve a different issue, my socket file is missing all of a sudden. I tried to restart cardano node and systemctl status said its running but no socket file created. I checked EKG host is set to 127.0.0.1 port is on 12788.
AlexD,
I think I solved the problem with the socket.
The problem seems to be “prometheus-node-exporter” is locking up the socket file and won’t let cardano-node create a new socket file. So I stop prometheus-node-exporter and immediately I see the socket file get created. I hope prometheus-node-exporter is not going to stop me from mining. This happen all of a sudden while gLiveview was running.
I’m so new at this. I need to read more.
I use cncli query tip --mainnet.
Another thing I didn’t do was to change the qcpolsendmytip.sh to include my API_KEY from pooltool.io
so now I see the height value in pooltool.io.
Thanks for your help. I’ll keep reading…

Wow, really?
Yes, I was surprised. I use lsof to find out what’s going on and that’s when I saw the hold on file socket by prometheus. So I just stop it.
So now I can see block height in pooltool.io after I fixed the API key.
So my next issue is just trying to see how I can get into some slots.
I tried to use the script cncli-leaderlog.sh to see but it always return the same in leaderlog.json
{
“status”: “error”,
“errorMessage”: “Query returned no rows”
}
So I ran the cncli command manually without the script and found that the error message was
Remote API Error: No active stake found for pool!
so I think I’ll need to wait for the next epoch
Very intersting, thank you for sharing this info
Remote API Error: No active stake found for pool!
so I think I’ll need to wait for the next epoch
That’s correct, the stake become active after 2 snapshots
AlexD,
Thanks again. Your help has been so valuable.
I looked at the cncli-leaderlog.sh script and found that arg 1 is the epoch which takes current, next, prev as argument and it defaults to next. So since I get “Query returned no rows” on next epoch, I would just need to check in daily to see if the next snapshot makes any difference. Worst case will be right before the next epoch 2nd snapshot, I should be able to find out. So I can use this script and put current as arg 1 and get “Remote API Error: No active stake found for pool!” That cncli tool is pretty good. I need to look at the code in cncli to see where it gets the information from. Looks like it uses something called rust which has an api like sql statements. I thought it would just just cardano-cli, but it doesn’t. So much to learn, so little time. Thanks again for answering my questions and showed me so many new tools to figure things out.

I ran the cncli-leaderlog script for current epoch and it gave me the above
does it mean, I’m not given any slot at all to mine?
Thanks
Yes, still no block assigned 
Thanks
Should I tried to put more coins in for delegation? Will that help improve my chance?
I see other pools that have similar # of coins delegated got assigned, so there must be some sort of tricks to this.
Thanks
It is called luck 
Any aditional coins will increase the chance
