Title: Bitshares 2.0 Witness Setup Questions
Post by: lafona on August 05, 2015, 01:40:56 am

I am trying to import one of my sub accounts and setup a witness following https://bitshares.org/blog/2015/08/04/howto-become-a-witness/ Is it possible to import only a sub account ie delegate-1.lafona or do I have to import the lafona parent account?

Also I had to modify the following command, not sure if it was a typo or if it should have worked without changing it.

./programs/cli_wallet/cli_wallet -s ws://176.9.234.167:8090 

./programs/cli_wallet/cli_wallet -s ws://127.0.0.1:8090

What is currently still missing is a way to connect to the P2P network via a seed node ...
Gonna try to figure that out today.

About your question: Yes, you can simply import any of your accounts .. and any of your balances

Have we got a seed node port we can connect to?

Code: [Select]

witness_node -s graphene.bitshares.org:????
One of my accounts had referrals.
Is it honoured on the test net to set-up a witness or should I just import a account with funds?

Thanks, nice work with the walkthrough. I'll hold off until the seed node issue is resolved. If it is helpful, here is what I was getting when I tried to register a sub account, not sure if it is related to the seed node issue or not.

10 assert_exception: Assert Exception
rec && rec->name == account_name_or_id:
    {}

I'm getting the same thing.

I think we are not on the test chain.

try connecting to my cubox (mini test net anyone?) with the following command

Code: [Select]

witness_node -s 185.42.242.124:60696 --rpc-endpoint "127.0.0.1:8090" --enable-stale-production -w \""1.6.5"\" \""1.6.6"\" \""1.6.7"\" \""1.6.8"\" \""1.6.9"\"

I believe I am connected(mini testnet), will have to shut off my computer when I leave for work. I have a pi I can try it out on when I get home later though. Too cool.   8)
