I've updated and delegates are working properly.
However seed node was stuck synchronizing.
Chain server didn't help at all.
I'm showing the logs:

I'm now trying --resync-blockchain.... Didn't help.

UPDATE:
I'm trying to sync only with the delegate now... Its OK now.

UPDATE:
I've copied the synchronized data dir from my delegate to the seed node.
It stuck again few blocks after...
Dont know what else I can do about that.

UPDATE:
Copied chain folder from delegate again. It is synchronized ... for now.

We are looking into these stuck blocks as our next high priority issue... the blockchain shouldn't get stuck on these forks.

When I open a wallet containing delegates on my seed node it synchronizes.
I'll let it open with blocks production disabled.
Time to sleep.

My linux wallet has about 100 connections, but WIN GUI only has less than 3 connections and adding nodes doesn't help.

When you have wallet open with enabled block production for a delegate (it doesn't need to be in top 101) it synchronizes.

Backup procedure had a bug in the last version .. (the comma at the end)
The bug was fixed in the new version ... so just create a NEW backup ... that should work well

We should start a new thread and reflag delegates that are produce forks ...
not missing blocks is VERY easy that way but does no good to the network! You just fail your responsibilities against the network ..

I see missing a block A LOT less harmful for the network than producing forks!!

The block must be in the same block number, and be produced by the same delegate, here is a example just taken.

Even though falling into a fork might be a bug in latest version, but we definitely need to enable the auto fire operation.

The block must be in the same block number, and be produced by the same delegate, here is a example just taken.
That is perfectly clear

Even though falling into a fork might be a bug in latest version, but we definitely need to enable the auto fire operation
*agreed* .. but be prepared to loose some active delegates ... maybe also consider a fired-window such that delegates are not fired indefinitely for skrewing up once ...

much like a 2 weeks penalty .. or kind of

Regardless of possible bug in the client, this behavior is still harmful to the network, topics related to this have already been discussed in the DPOS thread.

We should start a new thread and reflag delegates that are produce forks ...
not missing blocks is VERY easy that way but does no good to the network! You just fail your responsibilities against the network ..

I see missing a block A LOT less harmful for the network than producing forks!!

Build and run your client in another screen process first, input
Code: [Select]
info
to get the "wallet_next_block_production_time"

Catch a good operation time window, lock one, and unlock another.

works great thatway ..

I personally use 2 different VPS instances to do that ..
and wrote a little python script to simplify 'switching' of active delegates

Appreciate that, switching between two process is good enough to go without introducing extra hardware cost.
Do NOT forget to lock the old one.

Are they all running multiple instances?
You know how long the list is ?

This might be list in recent two days, some confusions from other nodes or users can avoid if delegates are doing a good job.

I think there should be an official thread with procedures that should be used for updating, backup etc.
Some of the backup solutions I saw in the forum might produce forks as well.
And another important thing - Lets not auto-start delegate block production if we open a wallet containing a delegate.

I updated to the tag 0.4.8 but I don't know if the node is of any use since the delegate is not producing blocks. Does it help the network anyway?

If you not are running your node behind a firewall, so others can connect to you, then yes, you help the network.

If you not are running your node behind a firewall, so others can connect to you, then yes, you help the network.

I setup it with the suggested  command network_set_advanced_node_parameters (max 200 connections) and it has incoming connections.
What i see sometimes is
Code: [Select]
Peer xyz disconnected us: You offered us a block that we reject as invalid
Is it normal?

Is it normal?

Yes that happens sometimes.... it will happen less frequently in the future.

We will strongly recommend others to vote them out.

This might of been me, I apologize. I missed 8 blocks because I had my delegate account loaded on both the VPN and my personal computer. I have since deleted the delegate account on my personal computer and everything seems to be running smoothly now. Luckily I noticed I was missing blocks, otherwise I wouldn't of realized. I apologize for that... It was a noob mistake. :)

By the way.. this should be explained in the "How to setup a delegate Wiki" so others avoid making the same mistake. If it would have been explained there I would not have done it. http://wiki.bitshares.org/index.php/BitShares_X_Delegate_How-To

Just curios, how did you remove the delegate account from wallet? Did you create a new wallet and import all accounts but the delegate or is there a console command for removing accounts from wallet?

I updated to the tag 0.4.8 but I don't know if the node is of any use since the delegate is not producing blocks. Does it help the network anyway?

If you not are running your node behind a firewall, so others can connect to you, then yes, you help the network.

I setup it with the suggested  command network_set_advanced_node_parameters (max 200 connections) and it has incoming connections.
What i see sometimes is
Code: [Select]
Peer xyz disconnected us: You offered us a block that we reject as invalid
Is it normal?

Yes that happens sometimes.... it will happen less frequently in the future.

Now there are about 120 incoming connections. Btw, is there a list of all the ports that must be open? Checked in the FAQs http://wiki.bitshares.org/index.php/FAQs but saw nothing. Or I just check the config.json file?
Thanks

no way to remove accounts.  I just use wallet_delegate_set_block_production <delegate name> false

if you run "netstat -tulpen" you can see all ports the client is listening to ... (linux)

I dumped the private key for my main non-delegate account, then deleted this folder:
C:\Users\Adminnn\AppData\Roaming\BitShares X\wallets\default

Then re-downloaded the block chain, imported the main account's private key, and re-scanned the block chain.

It seems I got voted out for my error last night, so be careful and don't do that!! :(

Hi,You can restore the voting for my delegate “mister”, and will vote transferred to “sun.delegate.service” and “moon.delegate.service”? I have updated to 0.4.9, and run nearly a month before the mister, the situation is very good, but after updating to 0.4.8, the vote was canceled, the original server is wasted.
