Hi Everybody

I'm havinng a problem with my VIVO masternode, same as somebody before, if I do not specify my IP in the VIVO.conf, then I get the message:
Not capable masternode: Can't detect valid external address. Please consider using the externalip configuration option if problem persists. Make sure to use IPv4 address only.

if I specify the IP and the port 12845 in the VIVO.conf, I get the message:

Not capable masternode: Could not connect to myip:12845.

I checked the port from outside and it is open.

any help please?

regards

I have the same problem. I have disable my firewall in windows, open my ports in the router, a static IP4 address. But if I start my masternode is the same error displayed:

"Not capable masternode: Can't detect valid external address. Please consider using the externalip configuration option if problem persists. Make sure to use IPv4 address only."

I do not understand why it should be a security problem to run the MN on the desktop at home. if you rent a server the coins somewhere in the world on a computer, since can also happen a lot ...
