Guide for V0.12.0 nodes updating to v0.12.1.6 in servers like Vultr or VPS.ag

First of all, if you have not already stop your old node, it's time to stop it.

Quote

cd eternity-0.12.0/bin && ./eternity-cli stop

Let's update our server after that

Quote

cd
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

It's time to download the new distro

Quote

wget https://github.com/eternity-group/eternity/releases/download/v0.12.1.6/eternitycore-0.12.1-linux64.tar.gz

Now we unpack it

Quote

tar -xzvf eternitycore-0.12.1-linux64.tar.gz

And start the new node:

Quote

cd eternitycore-0.12.1/bin && ./eternityd

Funny thing, in my nodes at least I didn't recieve the rpcuser and rpcpassword usual error message of the first turn on of the node, so I have to push ctrl+c and enter to exit from node execution Huh

Now we have to configure the new eternity.conf file

Quote

cd
cd .eternitycore && nano eternity.conf

We include the usual info:

Quote

rpcuser=lonbfdsbsfbfbfdgbzfdbame
rpcpassword=longzbfbzbfdbzdbword
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
listen=1
server=1
daemon=1
logtimestamps=1
maxconnections=256
eternitynode=1
eternitynodeprivkey=

--> We can copy the priv key from our eternitynode.conf file in the controller wallet or go to the folder .eternity and copy from the old eternity.conf file. Also we can use Winscp or a similar program to directly copy the old file in the new .eternitycore folder.

Let's start our node:

Quote

cd
cd eternitycore-0.12.1/bin && ./eternityd

See if everything is working

Quote

./eternity-cli getinfo

And made some cleaning from old instalation and tar archives if neccesary:

Quote

cd
rm -Rf eternity-0.12.0 && rm -Rf eternity-0.12.0-linux64.tar.gz && rm -Rf eternitycore-0.12.1-linux64.tar.gz && cd eternitycore-0.12.1/bin

We can also erase the old eternity blockchain folder .eternity, but I forgot about it Shocked

FInally we wait to have downloaded all the chain (it ususally is a very fast download), go to the console, restart the node with eternitynode start-alias and go to our node to check if the eternitynode is correctly started with:

Quote

./eternity-cli eternitynode status

And that's all. If you detect any mistake, please, post it to update the guide.
