[Public Testnet] testnet.bitshares.eu

You voted for yourself with your stake which is correct but you simply don't have enough votes. I started voting for your witness.

[studnev]

You must get voted in before you can sign blocks.

i did:
vote_for_witness dev4bc dev4bc true true

this is wrong?

what else should i do?

in test network i am not sure how to get votes

Please help with setup of active witness on testnet.bitshares.eu
I created a witness, upgraded it, but it does not generate new blocks and is not listed in active witnesses of testnet.

I followed instructions from this article: https://github.com/cryptonomex/graphene/wiki/How-To-become-an-active-witness-in-BitShares-2.0

and managed to pass all steps with upgrading account, creating a witness and voting for it.

import_key dev4bc ...
upgrade_account dev4bc true
create_witness dev4bc "http://izx.io" true
vote_for_witness dev4bc dev4bc true true
get_witness dev4bc

The final result is the following witness data:

locked >>> get_witness dev4bc
get_witness dev4bc
{
  "id": "1.6.47",
  "witness_account": "1.2.3340",
  "last_aslot": 0,
  "signing_key": "TEST7hJfPdJV3mgjnBwnbsGHbC9zWL5rDUUyqSkVQXeK4pZkRhaggB",
  "vote_id": "1:78",
  "total_votes": 465091782,
  "url": "http://izx.io",
  "total_missed": 0,
  "last_confirmed_block_num": 0
}



after that i started a witness node with the configured pub/private key and got

2497960ms th_a       witness.cpp:88                plugin_initialize    ] witness plugin:  plugin_initialize() begin
2497961ms th_a       witness.cpp:99                plugin_initialize    ] Public Key: TEST652WPZ6hm3n8X8xseUcQscDnnin8UUsHCxNHMgbgT28V18tYp2

2497961ms th_a       application.cpp:315           operator()           ] Initializing database...

All looks correctly setup, but

However, i do not see my witness dev4bc in the list of active witnesses.

Any help i will greatly appreciate!

Please send some TEST to "crn", I'll set up a witness. Already got some from the faucet.

Witness "crn" is set up (currently syncing).

@everyone: Please note that there was a hard fork on the testnet recently as we updated the code base to be closer to bitshares code base (thanks @pc for the assistance).
If you want to be a block producer, please update from master branch (including submodules) and rebuild your node, thanks!

[xeroc]

@all witness nodes on the *TESTNET*: please add the following checkpoint to your config.ini:

Code: [Select]

checkpoint = [6188623,005e6e4f7f47ace64ff6f5c83ebddb68ae14f235]

I messed with the testnet too much and kicked out all the other witnesses. My fault, shouldn't happen again.
Regards!

what do we need, to restart testnet?

why would we?

when I told restart testnet I mean restart project because I thought that did not work for some time.
For me still doesn't work as a web page.
but today I added new  API connection  wss://testnet.bitshares.eu/ws to my wallet and now works fine i that way.

Hello,

Do you run an NTP server to keep the time synchronized?

I have an ntp server running but it seems to be 35 seconds off.

Hi,

Yes I use an ntp daemon. However I have noticed that there is an offset of 35 seconds. I am in a virtual container so I am wondering if the server I am on is not running a daemon.

The time "in 1 second" looks strange. Perhaps your local time is not accurate. Using a ntp daemon?
