Windows standalone Sentinel

So I have finally build it, please test it and consider it to be a beta, something might fail (I don't have desire in Windows).

Download: https://github.com/ZonnCash/sentinel/releases/tag/v1.1.0-win64
Virustotal (3/67): https://www.virustotal.com/es/file/3a65c0df1fb89607531d8c02bb2a3070f1c39f555944d118c67d8ee616be5b18/analysis/1510697796/

Use at your own risk, it has been compiled exactly as the Github repo says

How to

To make it point to your desire.conf, you have three options:

A) Create a file sentinel.conf in the same folder as the EXE with the following content:
desire_conf=C:\path\to\desire.conf

Start sentinel-win64.exe

B) From a console, execute the EXE by passing arguments
sentinel-win64.exe --config=C:\path\to\desire.conf

C) By creating a shortcut

1) Right click the sentinel-win64.exe, "Create Shortcut".
2) Right click the shortcut, Properties
3) Edit Target and, at the end, add a SPACE and then "--config=C:\path\to\desire.conf" INCLUDING the quotes "

Double click the shortcut to start sentinel.

Feedback
Either if it works or not for you, please get back to me in this post and tell us!

2017-11-15 01:50 Running sentinel
[Errno 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively re
fused it
Cannot connect to desired. Please ensure desired is running and the JSONRPC port
is open to Sentinel.

Is your rpcport the default one? Try running with the argument "--rcp-port=999", where 999 is your port.
Other than that, is sentinel and desired running on the same machine?

That error is telling that nothing is listening on that ip:port, so either desired is running on a different machine, port or not running at all

I downloaded and installed https://github.com/ZonnCash/sentinel/releases/tag/v1.1.0-win64 on the same Windows 2012 server VPS as the Desire wallet and started it per your A) scenario. I don't know what rpcport is and if it is running or not.

Does your desire.conf has any rpcuser and rpcpassword set? That might be it, simply write them, ie.
rpcuser=someuser
rpcpassword=somepassword

EDIT: Also, restart wallet after doing so! Otherwise they won't get loaded

Try to make them somewhat more difficult to guess. Other than that, before running sentinel-win64.exe make sure the wallet is runing

Did exactly as you suggest. Same exact error.

Please make sure the wallet is running 0.12.2.1. Can you try restarting the VPS? So we'll be sure everything is loaded and running as expected.

I'll try to setup a minimal wallet on windows and check if it works for me

Desire Core version v0.12.2.1-ge537a31 (32-bit)
