Is it possible to become a witness without going back to 0.9.3 keys?

[xeroc]

@xeroc I moved my witness and cli-wallet to a new machine with more disk space, but when I attempt to fire up the cli-wallet, I get this:

I assume your issue is the "Please use the set_pass ..." warning ..
it indicates that the docker container does not have a wallet.json file ..
so you could either move it out of your old container into your new container .. or recreated your wallet by importing your private key of the witness ..

Anyway .. I do have a updates version of the docker files that uses docker-compoze instead .. I created it with NexusDevelopment and can be downloaded here:

So then you are ready to rumble and all you need is to synchronize the whole blockchain and wait for enough votes

[wmbutler]

No, but I did post a request and asked to be added to slack etc.

[xeroc]

Yup .. I'd say so
Have you been voted in already?

[wmbutler]

This is looking better.... I suppose I just have to wait now?

[xeroc]

I think I know what you are doing wrong ..
The container needs to be rebuild when you change the start.sh script ..

go into the "build" directory and run

Code: [Select]

docker build -t bitshares/bitshares-2-trusted-full-node bitshares-2-trusted-full-node
(this does not need to recompile the binaries, it will just repack the launch script)
That particular container was not meant to be run as a witness .. but I have a more flexible container here already .. Just needs some more polishing and things will be a lot easier

[wmbutler]

Yes

[xeroc]

When launching the node it usually shows the chain id. Does it show 4018d7844c78f6a6c41c6a552b898022310fc5dec06da467ee7905a8dad512c8 ??

[wmbutler]

Still haven't gotten my witness online. That last error message is all I have to go on. It's saying that the config.ini needs some entries, but my understanding is that the command line options override config.ini.

Followed this syntax by adding to build/bitshares-2-trusted-full-node/docker/start.sh

and stopping and starting the container:

Doh! Missing the (edited above so others don't make the same mistake)

Code: [Select]

= sign.

[xeroc]

you need to run the other launch script that also exposes the RPC port .. then you can connect to it via cli_wallet ala
cli_wallet -s ws://0.0.0.0:8090

[wmbutler]

Run the Docker cli image

Code: [Select]

./run-cli-wallet.sh
Get the CONTAINER ID

Code: [Select]

docker ps
Connect to it with a bash shell

Code: [Select]

sudo docker exec -ti [CONTAINER-ID] bash
Now call the web_wallet cli

Code: [Select]

./programs/cli_wallet/cli_wallet -s ws://<external_server_ip>:8090

[xeroc]

you need a lifetime member account to create a new witness .. and you will need to also run the cli-wallet (another docker container available) .. from there you can use the rest of the guide:

[wmbutler]

All,

I'm ready to be a witness. I'm running xeroc's docker container for the full node without RPC. Is there a way to do this without going though the 0.9.3 key process? I have a 2.0 wallet with a number of accounts that I could use as a witness. Thanks for any help you can provide.
