maybe someone can help me.
I want to run a masternode.
I guess that Iīve set up the wallet+config file on my primary computer correctly.
Iīv running a VPS with Ubuntu as well. I would say that my setting should be okay, but when I try to start masternode by using my primary computer I get the following message:
"Failed to start masternode. Invalid IP address"
Any ideas?
the only thing I didnīt was to start the masternode on the VPS. Do I have to start the masternode directly on the VPS or should I be able to start it on my primary computer?
Thats what is written in the masternode quick guide, but I donīt know how to open debug console on my VPS...
9. To start running the Masternode, inside Masternode Server MGN wallet, enter the debug console and type this command: masternode start-alias alias
and another question:
Do I have to put the port behind the IP address. xx.xx.xxx.xxx:57821?
Inside Masternode Server, navigate to MGN data directory, default area (for Linux) is ~/.mgn, and edit mgn.conf to show this:
rpcuser=randomUsername
rpcpassword=randomPassword
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
listen=1
server=1
daemon=1
logtimestamps=1
maxconnections=256
masternode=1
externalip=xx.xx.xxx.xxx:57821
bind=xx.xx.xxx.xxx:57821
masternodeaddr=xx.xx.xxx.xxx:57821
masternodeprivkey=yourMasternodeGenKey
replace rpcuser and rpcpassword with your own secure values.
can't really answer your first question since im not running my masternode on linux, im using windows. but you should be able to access the debug console once you open the magna wallet. not sure..
about your question about the port. yes you should put the port behind the IP. i personally don't use the bind command since it makes the wallet crazy in windows. haha
