ANON

ANON, the new cryptographic money has been conceived on tenth Semptember, as the fork of ZCL and BTC. It is a protection coin that centers around a usecase in reality (real concurrence with General Bytes ATM maker), is network driven and one of the greatest points of interest are extremely shoddy masternodes, with low masternode collaretall and masternodes holders casting a ballot framework.

There has been distributed a few aides and articles how to setup a masternode for ANON and some of them are stunning, yet at the same time there are a few slip-ups that individuals do and a considerable lot of them require help. Reason for this article is to abridge up the most continuous inquiries, missteps and blunders and how to comprehend them. I setup and run some masternodes without anyone else, however it took me couple of days to comprehend Ubuntu directions and to set everything right.

Official aides how to setup a masternodes are on github obviously:

README.md in ANON store: https://github.com/anonymousbitcoin/anon/mass/ace/README.md

SETUP_MASTERNODE direct is here: https://github.com/anonymousbitcoin/anon/mass/ace/doc/masternode_setup.md

Good guide how to setup a masternode is writen here, all credit goes to @anon_btc wire client: https://docs.google.com/report/d/11X5x8ksokHv62scpnrS2kW6bzePivBbK7b_u8ysO2Qs/alter

Unique video how to setup a masternoda is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=giJa0pvwq-A&t=357s

Fare thee well! It has been finished amid the testnet and some data there are in regards to testnet (e.g. port isn’t 33129 any longer, yet it is 33130 for mainnet).

Investigating

I did every one of the means from the aides, however my masternode (MN) prop up to WATCHDOG_EXPIRED state, occasion that before it was empowered.

You have to setup a sentinel for your MN. It is a Python application that ties to a neighborhood adaptation anond case on each ANON MN. By basic words, it is a way how MNs converse with one another.

Official guide how to introduce a sentinel is here: https://github.com/anonymousbitcoin/sentinel

More basic way is writen in @anon_btc’s guide — linke above, yet make sure that before you do steps that he depicts you introduce python and virtualvenv by directions:

well-suited introduce python-pip and able introduce virtualvenv

Regardless of whether your MN is WATCHDOG_EXPIRED and after you utilize direction on your VPS: ./anon-cli masternode status and you see “masternode succesfully begun”, you ought to approve of your prizes. This state does not depend just on your MN, but rather likewise on alternate MNs that does not have sentinel introduced.

How enormous and solid VPS I require?

I can just prescribe you VPS with something like 2 GB RAM and 40 GB space — there are a few clients that utilization 1 GB smash and 25 GB space and it is working smoothly — right now… yet when ANON arrange develops, this probably won’t be sufficient. Continuously pick Ubuntu 18.0.4 as working framework and when you sign into your VPS, dependably begin each direction by refreshing the framework by sudo well-suited get refresh and sudo able get redesign.

I got mistake with grow proving.key on my capacity.

Make sure that you run all the establishment contents accurately. You have to run this order at the lead position: ./anonutil/bring params.sh

I detest Ubuntu editorial manager that I keep running with order vi or vim, is there whatever other path how to alter records in direction line?

I presonally loathe vi direction as well, utilize nano order insted of it . E.g. nano anon.conf (if your are in the correct organizer), at that point you spare your progressions with Ctrl+C, affirm Y and after that Enter and document is altered.

When I utilize order ./gradlew clean fatjar despite everything I get blunder message: Deprecated Gradle highlights were utilized in this construct, making it contrary with Gradle 5.0.

I gotten this message as well, yet don’t stress, it has no effect on setting up the MN, simply proceed with subsequent stages of the guide, genuine Gradle rendition is around 4.10 and this message isn’t importnant. Ont he other hand make certain that you have introduced most recent Gradle form by able introduce gradle and furthermore the freshest variant of Java by sudo well-suited introduce default-jre and sudo able introduce default-jdc.

I get this blunder: Not skilled masternode: Can’t recognize legitimate outside location. If it’s not too much trouble consider utilizing the externalip setup choice if issues perseveres.

This imply your masternode.conf on your VM and your anon.conf on your VPS are not associated. I battled with this blunder long time. You should make certain that you have your rpcport set to 3130 and you should add a few lines to your anon.conf on your VPS to balance out the association. In the event that you have issue with this, your anon.conf should look child this:

masternode=1

masternodeprivkey=YOUR PRIVATE KEY

externalip=IP.OF.YOUR.VPS:33130

rpcuser=anonrepc

rpcpassword=GENERATED.PASSWORD

rpcallowip=127.0.0.1

whitelist=127.0.0.1

rpcport=3130

port=33130

addressindex=1

timestapindex=1

spentindex=1

txindex=1

listen=1

server=1

addnode=198.58.96.134

addnode=172.104.175.135

addnode=139.162.96.172

addnode=66.228.50.109

addnode=139.162.180.228

addnode=45.76.29.107

addnode=66.42.77.39

I got this blunder: mistake: couldn’t associate with server: obscure (code — 1)

(ensure server is running and you are interfacing with the right RPC port)

This ought to be settled by the progressions in anon.conf on both your VM and VPS — see the privilege VPS anon.conf from my last answer.

Additionally make certain that you run both anond on your VM and on your VPS. When you change anything in your anon.conf or masternode.conf, you have to reset the hub by the order killall anond in the correct catalog, after that you run the hub again with ./anon/src/anond. When you do it and it is completely adjusted for 100 %, don’t close it with Ctrl+C, simply shut the terminal window and you will be alright. This should be done on your VPS and additionally VM (on VM when you run the GUI wallet, anond runs consequently).

I got blunder “No such document or index”

You have to check on the off chance that you are in the correct catalog when running your order, you can travel through indexes by disc NAME and back by cd .. The vast majority of directions should be kept running from/anon catalog or/anon/src.
