Delegate questions

[Sonia Bzrgn]

Dear MeTHoDx
I have this problem now, for several time I try to install devtoolset but I face this error:

warning: rpmts_HdrFromFdno: Header V3 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 1d1e034b: NOKEY
Retrieving key from file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-cern
GPG key retrieval failed: [Errno 14] Could not open/read file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-cern

did you solve this problem? how did you do that?
it's so important to me to solve this problem, please do me a  favour and share your experiment with me
Thanks in advance

[roadscape]

It's tripped me up several times :)

Thanks! So close to finishing.

Error: your chain database is in an inconsistent state.  Please shut down and relaunch using --rebuild-index or --resync-blockchain to repair the database

Any ideas what's going on with the wallet? Why isn't is scanning the blockchain correctly?

This might help... emski had a similar problem in KeyID.

Did the yum update help? Did you have to do anything different for the RedHat install?

Do you know what I type to rebuild the index? I input ./bitshares_client --data-dir dd --rebuild-index while in the /bitsharesx/ dir and I just get an error.

cd programs/client and try again. Should work!

Yeah I realized the mistake I made when posting. Wasn't deep enough into the dir tree. My bad.

I bought access to a VPS in Singapore (safer than America) through Digital Ocean. It's running Ubuntu and I have successfully compiled the cli. Now I just need to deal with a few more barriers and hopefully I'll be finished by tonight. :-\

How do I import the private key for an account I created months ago? I know it's wallet_import_private_key but where do I find the private key?

You have a wallet backup that contains that account name?

if you open a wallet that contains the account you want to the private key for you can use

wallet_dump_private_key accountname

Hmm.. 1% of 50BTS gives 0.5BTS. Right?

Oh shit .. that hurts ..

[cube]

You can only reduce it .. however with the new update to the inflationary model .. all delegates will be force-set to 1% inflation

where was this explained?

https://github.com/BitShares/bitshares_toolkit/issues/879

10x I'd wait for the final version though.
Does this mean that a delegate can have max 100x TRX fees per block?

from what I know ... TX fees are BURNED .. you can get up to 100% of 50 BTS per block ..

Thanks for the insight.  Is this new '1%' pay-rate similar to that of KeyID?

I think so ... current plans are .. 50 BTS can be generated each block .. with a 1% pay rate leads to 5BTS per solved block .. which is 5x of the current payrate ..

Are you required to used RedHat? Because you are certainly the first person to ever try to compile it on RedHat ..
Can't you choose Ubuntu, or Archlinux?

The server already has a few websites on it... so I would have to basically hire someone to switch everything over to Ubuntu with minimal downtime (some of the sites are for-profit).

It depends if the websites use third-party software.   In most cases, it should be ok.

First, a warning: servers are fragile. If you have important apps/sites on this server, don't risk it unless you have the means to fix it.

It's faster, safer, and more secure to launch a new VPS with Ubuntu and install only the delegate there.
I'm in this process myself atm and can confirm that the wiki guide (while a little messy) is error-free.

But if you want to live on the wild side :D, I'd run yum update. That should fix the GCC error.

[xeroc]

ok .. then .. good luck compiling .. can't help you unfortunately .. never used RedHat :-\

Doesn't yum just offer the latest?

What if I gave you SSH access so you can mess around with it a bit? If it's not too much trouble I mean.

Looks like I probably need to install developer toolset BUT I don't know what version to install.

Here is the linux version of RedHat I'm running:

Linux 2.6.32-358.18.1.el6.x86_64 x86_64

Thank you tonyk and riverhead again for all the help.

tonyk2 has it correct.

The following command (except for the Ubuntu stuff of course :) )

gcc --version

Should return:

BTW these are the specs on the dedicated server:

Xeon E3-1240 v3
4 Cores x 3.4 GHz
120 GB SSD

That any good?

I will (once again) post in a topic that is non of my business/expertise.!!!!
Those are more than you need as of today. So damn good, in other words.
You are missing the software (which someone here will help you install).

You could try using "yum" instead of "apt-get".

Yes that works! Next roadblock:

So... now that I have shell access via terminal.app how do I install the bitsharesx cli?

http://wiki.bitshares.org/index.php/BitShares_X_Delegate_How-To

Didn't know this existed... should def be stickied in this sub!

When I input sudo apt-get update I get: sudo: apt-get: command not found

What do?

K... how do I connect from terminal now. It should look something like

ssh [email protected] but I'm not sure what it will be for my specific server...

It's [username]@[URL or ip address] if that helps...

EDIT: root@[URL or ip address], given that the keys you generated were for root.

You want a plain terminal, not a file manager, just to clarify.

[Riverhead]

Is there Putty for osx?  Also, OSX has a shell built in (OSX started out as FreeBSD). You can just use that without issue.

[Method-X]

Also, once you're in to a proper ssh shell it should be too bad to walk you through the install. You don't need a full GUI compile so that makes life easier.

Thanks for the help btw!

I've successfully generated a new SSH public and private key with NO PASSWORD, RSA and the key size is 1024.

I'm now looking for SSH file managers that work with OS X. I've found http://www.rbrowser.com/... any recommendations?

rsa

Though if you can ssh in normally it's not really needed.

[Method-X]

It works well for accessing the server without a password.

This may help with that: http://www.linuxproblem.org/art_9.html

DSA or RSA, what should I choose?

Also, it's Linux, forgot to mention that.

What are your permissions on the server? What is the OS?

It's a dedicated server, looks like I have "normal shell" access (as opposed to "jailed shell"). I'm in a section of WHM called "Manage root's SSH Keys"... it lets me generate a key for shell access. Do I need to do this?

Ok so I'm trying to install a delegate on a dedicated server I own. The server is located in California; I control it remotely through "WebHost Manager" (WHM). How do I install the cli (?) on the server?

I am no techy, by any stretch of the imagination, but you will not manage to install it using 'WebHost Manager'....

Yeah I def need to do this via the command line. I'll contact support and have them enable SSH if it isn't already.

Sounds good xeroc! So I just get delegate.methodx elected and once the new rules take effect it will be automatically be set to 1% inflation even though it's currently 10% pay?

I registered delegate.methodx and set the pay rate to 10% a few months back. Can I change the % or do I have to register an entirely new delegate to do that?
