Title: CryptoNote - cannot connect to server via host terminal
Post by: falky64 on February 10, 2018, 04:35:29 AM
Hello,

I try to start my daemon to initiate the handshake for the blockchain but I get this error, even though if i setup the same daemon file to run on a virtual machine it works fine... This blockchain was created out of "Cryptonote".

2018-Feb-10 14:54:10.066449 ERROR   Failed to init: genesis block mismatch. Probably you set --testnet flag with data dir with non-test blockchain or another network.
2018-Feb-10 14:54:10.066581 ERROR   Failed to initialize blockchain storage
2018-Feb-10 14:54:10.066690 ERROR   Failed to initialize core

I have rebuilt the cryptonote "build" folder again, the genesis tx address I have saved in the config folder and then rebuilt again, but still receive this error. i have no idea what's going on.

This is a Bitcoin forum. You will probably get better results in a CryptoNote forum, such as https://forum.cryptonote.org/

There's often bugs and errors with cryptonote fork, especially when you doesn't really know what you're doing (like me a couple of months ago).
Could you give a more detailed explanation of what you did? Step by step.
Have you tried to delete everything from your computer, re-clone it from github and re-build everything? If yes, are you sure you didn't forget the blockchain (hidden) folder (different location depending on your OS)?

I tried signing up to the cryptonote forum but they have a bug where they don't send you a verification link in an email lol so i am stuck on here atm sorry.

I have completely deleted everything, then rebuild all through "Ubuntu", I can get the seed nodes running the blockchain on my external server, which I uploaded all my script to and ran the daemon from both servers to complete a handshake, and they run perfectly, I can setup a wallet and mine but only through the ssh connection terminal. If I try to start my blockchain daemon from my home computer, even with the other seed nodes running on a different computer, it gives me this same result. The reason i want to have it running as well on my computer is so i can start mining as mining off the server caused a "killed" response after a while because im using up to much CPU. I thought once you have the binaries, they connect automatically once you start the daemon but seems they do not connect to the seed nodes or something gets in the way.
