Hello everyone, i would like to ask you with helping setting up my own stake pool.
I am new in this community, so i am not that good, because i am learning a lot of things right now.
I am software developer from Slovakia, but my main orientation is Java backend, so linux environment is not my best friend, but i like challenges .
I created 2 droplets(servers) in digital ocean cloud service (www.digitalocean.com), each has these specs :
4 GB Memory / 80 GB Disk / FRA1 - Ubuntu 20.04 (LTS) x64)
One droplet is for relay and another for producer node.
Which tutorial for setting up do you recommend? Because i do it with help from many pages/videos, but i am not sure if everything is correctly setup.
-------- My relay node ----------
is now syncing, but i cannot access to cntools, when i run cntools.sh it shows just some text but cannot do anything there, anyway, do i need it for relay or it is just for producer node?
-------- My relay node -----------
-------- My producer node ----------
is started, but i havent configured anything there, i am only here : Guild Operators Documentation.
I can run it, but when i run status(sudo systemctl status cnode.service) i see that its running, but it shows this warn message :
,WARN: A prior running Cardano node was not cleanly shutdown, socket file still exists. Cleaning up.,
What should i do when i have this message? It is because i have not anything configured? Are there some better logs when i have some problem? Where can i find them?
I tried also edit topology.json, where i put this text:
{
“addr”: “”,
“port”: 6000,
“valency”: 1
}
but when i start this node(sudo systemctl start cnode.service) this topology file is overwritten with this:
{ “resultcode”: “201”, “networkMagic”: “764824073”, “ipType”:4, “Producers”: [
{ “addr”: “209.250.239.195”, “port”: 8000, “valency”: 1, “distance”:2, "cont>

] }
By definition i want to have only my relay node there, so what do i need to configure/setup?
-------- My producer node ----------
Any help would be great, I would like to thank you in advance.
