So today i final got my node package from futurbit, i put in the micro sd card, put in all my info set it up and started mining, waited 2 hours to make sure it all worked fine.so after that i plugged in the usb in the back of the Apollo, reset the Apollo from the dash board .Now 15 minutes past and i look at the node dash board an i get this error
There is a problem fetching system stats (Invalid params, response status code: 500)

what did i do wrong or how can i fix it, i thought buy buying the kit it would be all nice and good.....Sad

I also had this bug, refresh your page to "root menu" (the basic ip of your Apollo) and go back to the node, or just be patient, it'll refresh alone (it could take several minutes). and after that, you have to sync the blocks, it could take also long time sometimes.
But basically, even if it take times (it's not an Asus with i9 and 64Go Ram Cheesy)  Apollo will do the job. If you have this bug, it's that you're not too far to reach the end ;-)

Hi there ^^
I'm probably the 26 or 27.. from Tahiti, in the middle of nowhere Cheesy  Grin
I had to open the port manually.
My internet connection is full ahahah (got also few L3+ and S9 running) (1mo/s dowload max - 150/200 ko/s upload max, but it works Cheesy )
Just to tell those who hesitate because it looks complicated, don't hesitate anymore, if a noob like me gets there, it's within everyone's reach!

I have a little question, in few days i'm about to download another node from another project coming in phase 2 ..
wouldn't it be better to have a second connection ?

Happy mining and "nodeing" to everyone,
Take care all of you


ok.. not for me anymore..  (it took 2 days and half to download the all files)
i get connected only once.. almost quickly
But then i had to open the port ...(only 8 node)).. And when i opened the port everything get worth after.
Node never launch (only "block index..."), or get almost to start but never do (i waited 12h), HW increase like 4-5% and i can't reboot anything (when i try to stop, it reboot again and again (node too)). (took 5-10 minutes to have the red light)
And when i decided to disable the opened port, same.. can't have the node as i had the first time with only 8 node around.

24h later = Total mess up for me. going back to old version. i'll try later if there's an update with correctives.


What USB drive are you using?


Sorry for the delay :-s
Cause of confinement i had to use a integral USB 3.0 128Go, but it works the first time.. till the message on the dashboard 8/16 " you have to open ... 9333.. "
as i have 4G (vodasurf in Tahiti) and i'm noob in configuring network Cheesy i'd watched on web and youtube how to open forwoard port but i have a b311 huawei.
i made two things "in case of"
I "configure a virtual server to enable external computers to access services provided by LAN" (i copy past what i have on my huawei)
Name       WAN Port      LAN IP Address    LAN          PortProtocol
Futurbit    9333-9333     192.168.8.xxx      9333-9333     TCP/UDP

and in "spécial configuration" i "configure parameters to allow the use of special applications, such as online games, video conferencing, or IP phone over the LAN".
Name     Trigger Protocol   Trigger Port   Open Protocol    Open Port
Futurebit    TCP/UDP           9333           TCP/UDP              9333

we're now "free", i went to store and bought super talent 3.0 express drive 64Go, already in Fat32, i copied past again all in the Litecoin folder created (the first Litecoin.zip y've uploaded on mega {file was lighter})
I plug in, reboot, it seems to work again, but as it was long i went to bed.. and when i came back to see it seems to have crashed again.
i look in the .txt the report .. but it goes far beyond the few skills I have.
And if y copy paste here .. it would take one page ^^'
I replug now, reboot system, it's now rewinding blocks and still 35 in blockchair.. fingers crossed to be the 36

Up/ it took almost one hour to sync the blockchain and i still at 8 and it still ask me to open port, but !! few minutes ago, i saw the number reach to 9 ! and the red line go to green..
May be it's in the right way... and i have to wait a little; i'll update if any changes.
if i'm pretty sure it's cause of the box (4G) ...

up2/ or my internet service provider whom block port, fortunately a mate work there! i've just asked him, he will ask by his side.

if you are asking about running multiple nodes for different projects that should not be an issue. I have close to 12 different nodes running now. I am currently loading a verge node even as I type this.

<3 perfect
Thank you !
