sup guys ??

i have two instances of the 8bit wallet running one for staking and one masternode (different data dirs).

i decided to make a second masternode but when i try to start the third instance i get the following error "Unable to bind 0.0.0.0:18888 on this computer. 8bit is probably already running.
Failed to linsten on any port. use -listen=0 if you want this."

If i put -listen=0 the third instance is running without problems. However i dunno what this command (-listen) does and for the masternode you have to have it at 1.

Any suggestions? There are people running 5 - 10 mns at one machine. How you managed to do it after the second (wallet) instance ??

THANKS IN ADVANCE !!

hey Pon13, are you using a different port number for each masternode instance?

You can edit the port number for each masternode in the 8bit.conf file.   The following line:

masternodeaddr=0.0.0.0:9999   << this port number needs to be different for each MN

*also in the .conf file for each masternode you can use the line:

port=9999  << different for each MN

hey man thanks for the reply !! the port command worked perfect !!
