Ok, I finally manage to install “new version” as you suggested, although I’m a bit confused as it states Relay Mainnet on both (main and relay nodes) is this normal? How long will it take to sync?
If I launch the command you suggested (cardano-cli query tip --mainnet) it throws back the following error:
cardano-cli: Network.Socket.connect: <socket: 11>: does not exist (No such file or directory)
The BP will display “Core” after it starts completely. The socket file will also be available after the node starts.
Finally it seems to be syncing. Will let you know once it reach 100%
Quick question here, how long is it supposed to take, in order to sync the full db? Am I supposed to delete the old db files and let it full sync again? Is there any way to purge/reuse/clean old files? It is using 83gb space at 366 epoch and counting, and it is taking it all, I guess that ain’t normal right?
The db folder takes 96 GB for a node in sync right now.
If ur relay is up and running (synced) u can submit the transaction from there
thx for the info, but none of them are synced yet… i thought it would take a few days… but this is clearly not the case… how long is it taking these days to fully sync?
Probably less than one day, starting from scratch.
well… is not the case for me, so how is that possible, if it is going to take less to start from scratch i will…
How much in % is synced now?
Do you have enough disk space?
What do you see in the logs?
Epoch 370 [85.5%] full sync 93.4%, i have been now almost 3 days syncyng. There should be plenty space, as there is a partition of 100Gb for it.
Where can i see the logs?
There is also https://csnapshots.io/.
…, but you only wrote “Finally it seems to be syncing” 1.5 days ago.
Anyway, …
journalctl -eu cardano-node should give you the latest logs from the node.
yeah but it was synced already at the 366, so i calculated based on the actual time the 3 days… being very optimistic… XD
In terms of the logs:

I should have said it takes less than one day except on a Contabo VM, where it takes an indefinite amount of time. And right now, your relay is down (I cannot connect to it on the port 6000).
If you send me the stake pool deregistration certificate (you probably should create a new one with epoxh 384 or later) or your cold verification key file I can create the transaction to retire the stake pool for you. You would need to sign it and submit it so a submit-api endpoint (because you don’t have a working node), or send it to me to submit it.
Hey! Thanks for the info, now everything makes sense.
If I send you a tx.signed file, would that be enough for you to submit the tx to the network? If so, how would you want me to do so?
Yes, sure. But if you are able to create and sign the transaction, you should be able to also send it to a submit-api endpoint with curl. Use Koios API for this: Koios API Documentation
First, encode the tx.signed to the cbor format:
jq .cborHex tx.signed | xxd -r -p > tx.signed.cbor
Then submit it:
curl -X POST \
--header "Content-Type: application/cbor" \
--data-binary @tx.signed.cbor https://api.koios.rest/api/v0/submittx
let me give it a try!
Well, I have tried to download the file and sync manually, but it seems something is not working as expected (y suppose is the HD free space). If I send you the pool.dereg file, would you be able to create the tx file so I can sign and send it over to you? How do you want me to send you the files?
You don’t need any node to create a transaction with cardano-cli transaction build-raw.
I can create the transaction (to retire the stake pool) for you, if you send me the pool-deregistration certificate. It should be created with epoch 385 now.
You need to run this command:
cardano-cli transaction build-raw \
--tx-in "1c2bf89aa2fb9bd53fc8f9116723323fc85a60a530d0353e07b2788b5dd0a0b8#0" \
--tx-out "addr1qyx38gtxdlc759azq53p86ehpgajrr7qr9pqvlknmua48a7459fwssj77uqcs8j09ddsqfjh4lc6tzkytpzhtzt4536q88akz7+1799829695" \
--fee 180000 \
--certificate-file pool-deregistration.cert \
--out-file tx.raw
to create the transaction, without a node.
Then you need to sign it with the payment skey and cold skey, transform it to cbor (as I wrote you before) and submit it to the submit-api endpoint from Koios with curl.
Hey! I just want to thank you so much for all your help, and let you know that we finally retire the pool (on the next epoch). I would like to put our funds into another pool, so if you don’t mind telling us yours, we would be very happy to delegate to you.
