Hi, I decided to "test the water" before I jump in by setting up a masternode but I am having a problem and was wondering if anyone could help me out?
I'm running on a windows 10 machine and setup the wallet and let is sync as per the guide (and a dozen others that I read while looking for a solution), I have added exceptions to the firewall for port 7209 and have forwarded the port in my router but after running 'goldminenode start-all' the node enters the PRE_ENABLED state then after an hour or so changes to EXPIRED followed by NEW_START_REQUIRED.
While start-all and list-conf return what you'd expect I do see an error when I use 'goldminenode status' which is 'Not capable goldminenode: Could not connect to XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:7209'. I've seen a fair few people with this problem with masternodes on various coins but haven't managed to find a solution yet.
I have the EXACT same error! Using Debug - Not capable goldminenode: Could not connect to XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:7209'
When I use qt wallet and run goldmine node - it goes pre-enabled, then expired, then I restart again.
I can see on the
https://arcticcoin.org/en-EN/goldmine-list that it's active then expired after 20-30 minutes.
I'm using a VM Win2012-64bit. PoS is working with coins. Stable fixed IP and internet.
When I do a netstat -a, I can see IP's connecting to my VM machine using port 7209.
I'll try to get this resolved first ->
http://ping.eu/port-chk/ (It says port 7209 is still closed from the outside)
Will post if I get to resolve this... If anyone running from own computer/network and is able to resolve this, appreciate it if you can share. Thanks!
