Title: p2p connection failed - likely incorrect p2p magic value
Post by: nordicwolfman on March 27, 2021, 03:45:58 AM
Hi and I'm sorry for my bad english.

I have a question regardin peerMagic value. I have read the install guide, I have read on every site in Goole and nobody explain with clarity which magic value must be used on file litecoin.json. I have the following error mesagge when I run node init.js "p2p connection failed - likely incorrect p2p magic value". I try peerMagic "fbc0b6db" and peerMagicTestnet "fcc1b7dc" or peerMagicTestnet "fdd2c8f1". I'm trying with values from the installation guide and also with the values pchMessageStart  on the file chainparams.cpp but without successful.

I read a lot of questions about this issue but without answer. It sounds like a secret that nobody wants to reveal.

Everything else run fine but I can't solve this issue.

Could some one help me please.

Thanks in advance.

Thank you, I read that post before send my question and is another user with the same problem asking for help.
I have a similar configuration but not solve my problem. I'm trying with Litecoin Core + Redis + NOMP with Node v8.17.0

I'm trying with different values of magic numbers but without success.

Any other suggestion ?

No idea from my side as well but it would be better if you ask your query in the beginner and help section where people with more technical skills can help you to resolve your issue.
