Technical Support / Re: is the witness thing running under win?
« on: February 02, 2016, 05:25:29 pm »I downloaded the latest official binary and tried the witness_node, as if I am a layman. Surprisingly, I got the same result as you - ie the witness_node.exe seemed to be stuck. The witness node output information seems to be changed. It becomes quiet, possibly to be less spamy.
Here is what you can do:
1) Follow what xeldal advised: make a shortcut with "C:\Program Files\BitShares 2\bin\witness_node.exe" --rpc-endpoint "127.0.0.1:8090" as the target.
Run this shortcut as Administrator
2) make a shortcut with "C:\Program Files\BitShares 2\bin\cli_wallet.exe" -H 127.0.0.1:8092 -s ws://127.0.0.1:8090 as the target.
Run this shortcut as Administrator
3) When the wallet runs, enter 'info' at the 'new' prompt. You will get to see a number of stuff. Look out for 'head_block_num'. This number will be increasing even though the witness_node seems to be stuck with no new output from it. But it is not stuck. It is working quietly.
well, mine is indeed stuck...the head block number stays the same and matches the one from the pic above "head_block_num": 2821722,
I did not believe that running it from the shortcut will make a difference from doing the same from cmd but tried anyway.
Maybe yours is moving because it is indeed down loading blocks before that one # 2821722... or it is something with my whole setting and the witness_node.exe is fine..
