so,
i rebuilt it (which i probably should not have done) and now im getting this:
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::invalid_argument'
what(): stoi
btw... before i had been running the seeder for at least a week straight with nothing in the dump file but i think i had some settings in the configuration file wrong and i only had my cloudflare nameservers connected to my domain and not my subdomain. duh
Hard to say exactly what is going on there. It shouldn't let you rebuild unless the source code changed. Did you make any changes to the actual source code? If not, it seems that you might have a typo in the settings.conf file.
I would recommend restoring the original config file and try running the app to see if that gets you passed the error, and then restore your custom config file and try to figure out where you made the error by comparing the two files.
It should only take a minute or two for you to get a connection to your network, so if you don't start seeing the numbers going up right away, you likely have an incorrect setting for your network or no good seed nodes to gain entry. The cloudflare setup has absolutely nothing to do with connecting to the network, so even if you didn't fill out the cloudflare settings you should be able to get nodes in the dump file.
If all else fails, its pretty easy to just download the source again to a new directory and redo the steps to setup the app and try it again from scratch.
