Nope, there is no issue

try on relay to delete the all scripts folder

cd $CNODE\_HOME  
sudo rm -R scripts

then

```auto
cd ~/tmp
./prereqs.sh -f
. "${HOME}/.bashrc"

```

after that try again ./cnode.sh

HI Alexd1985,

Thanks for some amazing tips and help on the forum champ.

I ran through your guide because my gLive was stuck on “starting” for more than 8 hours.  
I realised, whenever I go to cnode status it shows "Failed to query protocol-parameters from node, not yet fully started?

I then found this guide - i have followe devery step - now gLive does not want to start. WHen I do status on cnode i get this:

When I try to run gLive:

Any idea what it could be? 🙂  
PS: I downloaded the scripts again (with -f)+ changed the env file again and updated my port.

This is not an error, wait for the node to be sync… in glive u should see starting…  
If u type top u should see 100% cpu usage

If u type sudo systemctl status cnode  
what is the status?

Hi Alex

that worked, thank you so much.

I have one more question - my relay is running fine and has finished synching.  
BUt i realised the port is still default and not the port I want to use - if I change the port now in the ENV file - will it mess anything up?  
Or will gLive be able to figure out itself? 🙂
