Hi, I decided to "test the water" before I jump in by setting up a masternode but I am having a problem and was wondering if anyone could help me out?

I'm running on a windows 10 machine and setup the wallet and let is sync as per the guide (and a dozen others that I read while looking for a solution), I have added exceptions to the firewall for port 7209 and have forwarded the port in my router but after running 'goldminenode start-all' the node enters the PRE_ENABLED state then after an hour or so changes to EXPIRED followed by NEW_START_REQUIRED.

While start-all and list-conf return what you'd expect I do see an error when I use 'goldminenode status' which is 'Not capable goldminenode: Could not connect to XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:7209'. I've seen a fair few people with this problem with masternodes on various coins but haven't managed to find a solution yet.

Here are some of the settings and outputs I'm seeing;

I have the EXACT same error! Using Debug - Not capable goldminenode: Could not connect to XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:7209'

When I use qt wallet and run goldmine node - it goes pre-enabled, then expired, then I restart again.
I can see on the https://arcticcoin.org/en-EN/goldmine-list that it's active then expired after 20-30 minutes.

I'm using a VM Win2012-64bit. PoS is working with coins. Stable fixed IP and internet.

When I do a netstat -a, I can see IP's connecting to my VM machine using port 7209.

I'll try to get this resolved first -> http://ping.eu/port-chk/ (It says port 7209 is still closed from the outside)

Will post if I get to resolve this... If anyone running from own computer/network and is able to resolve this, appreciate it if you can share. Thanks!

Oh yea thats the other thing I forgot to mention, when I use external port testers like the one above (ping.eu) they all report that my port is open. I also tried with upnp both disabled and enabled but it didn't seem to make a difference.

If you haven't already you will need to forward the port on your router and add an exception to your firewall.

Thanks. i have already done firewall port opening allowing to-fro port 7209. Using VM, I also used NAT Bridge IP.
Last and most important change is to turn-off windows firewall.

goldminenode status is Enabled. I will know in 30 minutes if this really resolved the problem. Will post again.

This is closed. The ARC wallet now shows that the Goldminenode is ENABLED.

If there are windows users out there, please follow the thread post to be able to setup an ARC masternode using a personal pc and qt wallet.

Will move on another coin and see if this setup is feasible as well.

Hope this helps windows noobs out there who do not want to use a VPS.

I have some left over coins from my wallet after I setup my GMN. I sent it back to cryptopia to trade it.
And WTF!!! It needs 200 confirmations  Ahahahaha
It's been like 3 hours when I sent it and only 86 confirmations.
First time I seen this so many confirmations before it becomes tradeable...

[dellzxd]

so, i need static ip to setup masternode ? or theres a way to use dinamic ip ?

Thanks for the info. Haven't tried it because I had already started my goldmine on AWS.

Also, arent you worried that you have to turn off your windows firewall?
 

[Alpha0One1]

It's behind a hardware firewall. Also not much to worry about on my end as the ARC MN I setup is a by product of another coin that was airdropped. 

[nozy]

For anyone that is interested i can setup a VPS for your masternode, 8$ ( ARC payment)/month.Pm me for more.

[ArcticCoin]

Yep, Cryptopia is require 200 confirmation, we can't change it for now, but it's temporary! On the December 2017-January 2018, we will be list on Bittrex. I hope u understatd what it means...

Is that an official confirmed listing with Bittrex, or just something that you want to try to get Arctic Coin listed on Bittrex at that time?

[dellzxd]

why my masternode status is "pre enabled" ?

Unfortunately even completely dissabling the windows firewall didn't work for me
Still going PRE_ENABLED -> EXPIRED -> NEW_START_REQUIRED

Yes, it's official confirmed... see on the Roadmap.
