Sync Error - Alonzo Purple Testnet

I’m in the process of configuring a testnet environment to run some tests on a Smart Contract I’m working on and am stuck in the sync at about the hardfork it looks like. The error is: cardanod:cardano.node.DnsSubscription

I’m on 1.29.0 for the node and cli, appear to have the latest Alonzo config and installed the node and cli via nix-build. The system is Ubuntu 20. Not sure if the entire error is necessary but I’m happy to share it if it helps.

I’m following the guidance from here: 1. AWS Node Setup — Plutus Pioneer Program Lecture Notes documentation starting at 1.3 as this is a vm not an aws.

journalct -e -f -u cardano-node or cnode

Here is the error showing up in the output (I’m not using cnode or cardano-node via systemd just running the command in a terminal…get’s to about 94% sync)

I see “ObsoleteNodeChain” in there, but the config files appear correct, so not sure what’s up - is there a better place to get up-to-date instructions on the testnet node setup?

I know your issue :slight_smile: wait

Download again the files from here and restart the node

done, resyncing now . . . taking a LOT longer to sync, this seems more right :slight_smile: thank you, will update later when it finishes

Try to delete the db and let the node to sync again… or copy the db from another working node

Something I did later is discovered the guide by coincashew and followed it, but replaced mainnet with testnet and/or testnet-magic as per the instructions on the guide. Then just stopped short after I got it up and running (didn’t go on to do the staking server instructions of course). (link)

Have the same issue:

Tried to follow this exercise1

Am I allowed to use a newer binary version (1.32.1) for the exercise?

Ok, I got it solved. That wasn’t the right version of configuration files for my release.

As I’m now found out, we can find the right configuration files, linked in the Releases

But, why am I in the Byron era? Shouldn’t it be the Alonzo era?
cardano-cli 1.32.1
Now I used this configuration files:
