If you're trying to resolve the Error: Could not allocate vin, you must first unlock your wallet and then try to start it. That error usually pops out if your wallet is currently locked. On the other hand, for STATUS: not in masternode list, I normally let it sync with the network for 2-5 mins and it will eventually update its status. Be patient about it.
My wallet has been unlocked and not encrypted. I have gotten
STATUS: not in masternode list for about 18 hours now so it doesn't seem to be a sync issue.
See my previous answer to marvel directly above for other info.
How can I be getting masternode payouts without ever successfully starting the node and it claiming be be not in masternode list?
If there is a command to search for my specific IP in the masternode list I wont worry as i'm still getting mining payouts BUT what does worry me is that the 5000 coins in the masternode only show on my dashboard and not in my coin control.
Is that odd? or would they become available again after stopping masternode in my VPS commands?
And how can
masternode payouts be blank in the debug console while the MN is literally paying out mining rewards?
I appreciate your answers here guys. I'm noob as fuck but this still doesn't make logic...
