Subject: Cardano node build error on Linux

Staking & Delegation Setup a Stake Pool

Hi all,

I’m trying to build a Cardano node on my Linux machine using the instructions in the following guides:

I’m using the command cabal build cardano-node cardano-cli, but I’m getting the following error message:

Warning: Requested index-state 2022-10-25T20:00:00Z is newer than
'cardano-haskell-packages'! Falling back to older state
(2022-10-25T17:33:07Z).

After searching the rest of the dependency tree exhaustively, these were the
goals I've had most trouble fulfilling: cardano-api, cardano-crypto-class,
cardano-crypto-class:secp256k1-support

Despite this warning, the node is not being built.
Has anyone encountered this issue before and found a solution?
I’ve probably forget something, but as a beginner can’t figure out what :frowning:

Thanks in advance, Bert

Hi Alex,

Are you referring to this guide?

I managed to start building the node with above guide, but ran into another problem.
I’ve created a new topic for this:
