Node stuck starting

no. 6.2% is current lvl.
and this stupid forum keeps blocking me from posting replies

[ -f “/home/cardano/.ghcup/env” ] && source “/home/cardano/.ghcup/env” # ghcup-env
export CNODE_HOME=/opt/cardano/cnode
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
PATH="/home/cardano/bin/cardano-hw-cli:$PATH"

thanks, and show me the env file now

cardano@adabankmel:~/.ghcup$ cat env
export PATH="$HOME/.cabal/bin:/home/cardano/.ghcup/bin:$PATH"

no, try nano env (env file is located in scripts folder)

and check the first 10 lines… are all commented?

cardano@adabankmel:/opt/cardano/cnode/scripts$ nano env
GNU nano 4.8 env
#!/usr/bin/env bash

shellcheck disable=SC2034,SC2086,SC2230,SC2009,SC2206,SC2062,SC2059,SC2229,SC2154,SC2162,SC2120

try to uncomment the line: SOCKET="${CNODE_HOME}/sockets/node0.socket"

and restart the node

after a bit it gave me

then went back to

Ok, comment back the socket line from env file

Done. sonme red lines flash up as gview starts but too quick to see what it says. Anyway I can get those lines??

Hi!

what lines? can you copy here?

This is all sorted. @Alexd1985 spent hours with me the other night. He was amazing. Never-the-less, we didnt get it going. I spent the next day re-inst Ubuntu and re-installed Cardano. All worked and now can see relays etc.

any updates on this issue , i am facing the exact same problem with my relay node ,i have standard topology.json pointing only to relay.mainnet server from IOHK pointing to port 3001

journalctl -e -f -u cardano-node

I see killed… what is the hardware configuration of the server? You will need at least 9G of RAM

it has 8 GB RAM, let me try increasing the RAM size.

thought the minimum requirement was 8 GB but seems like things have changed
