Thats awesome you are firing up 5!  Thanks!  Yeah, Im firing up 3 sancs + 1 controller, so we should have most of the bases covered this time.

I sent something like 12 mil-13 mil I believe to you.

EDIT:

I forgot an important note for everyone; Oncoa can you please do this also;
please delete your SAN/prayers*.* files and restart (just delete the whole directory SAN if you want), and then you will see that ABN isn't required.

This is because in testnet, our sporks are cached (until they get replaced with a new value).  Since we restarted the chain, the wallet thinks its still in ABN required mode.

(ABN is currently not required in testnet).

EDIT 2:

Yes, our hashes match, great job!

Thank you for the tBBP - I have set up 2 DIP3 sancs.

104.167.118.24:40001
45.62.239.200:40001

Although they both appear to be enabled on the masternode list (and both receiving block rewards on consecutive blocks 5802,3), masternode status on both say
"state": "WAITING_FOR_PROTX",
"status": "Waiting for ProTx to appear on-chain"

I struggled for quite a while in the set up as unlike previously, this time the VoteAdd must be the same as the OwnAdd.  As can be seen from my post (on Jul 31, 2019, for example, my last sancs had different addresses for both, as I set them up from scratch using the dash method.

Thank you also for the tip about the deletion of the SAN directory, the VPS are now mining without ABN.

I can see both of your sancs as enabled (however in the phase we are in, we arent in LLMQs yet, so they wont be pose banned anyway until after block 8400). Anyway when I right click on those I can see the Pro-tx.  Did your status ever update in the sancs themselves to Enabled?

I just created 3 sancs.  In my case, one of the three already went to enabled (in the masternode status in the sanc) with all of its info.  In the other 2, I also see waiting for pro-tx to appear on chain.  So Im going to leave mine like this and see if that changes later.

In my case, I used our upgradesanc command.  Heres how I created a deterministic using the legacy with upgrade method:
- Send 4,500,001 to myself using QT wallet
- Type masternode outputs - copy the TXID and ordinal
- Edit the controllers testnet3/masternode.conf file
- Past IP:Port MNP txid ordinal (in the file)
- Type 'upgradesanc sancname 0' .  Verify this will work.
- Type 'upgradesanc sancname 1'.  Copy the masternode bls priv key to the Sanc "biblepay.conf" file.  Also ensure the sanc has masternode=1 in it.
- Reboot the sanc so it uses the bls priv key.

On another note, Im testing an upcoming feature that will let Apollon host deterministic sancs, and let Apollon (or biblepay users) host sancs on nonstandard ports.
I wanted to see - do we need any code changes in testnet (or in the upgradesanc command) to support nonstandard ports.

So I did this:  In the sanctuary itself, in the biblepay.conf, add "port=nnnn" where nnnn is your non standard port #.  In my case I used 39998 (as you can see from the sanctuary list now).
Then in the masternode.conf file, I changed 40001 to 39998 (in my controller wallet).
I see our upgradesanc command did honor that without any changes, and - because we have recently merged in a change that allows nonstandard ports for pro-tx the tx was broadcast.

I was able to successfully create two more sancs on non standard ports.

So now you all should be able to see in the masternode list:  ports 40001, 39998, 39999.  Lets see if these nodes survive.

Thank you for the advice.

All mine were still waiting for ProTx but when i added the port to the IP and restarted it immediately went to ready, so the port ( even if default 40001) is needed in the conf.

I’ll try a non standard port later tonight.

Well, I think it was the reboot that did it.  After poring through the code yesterday on that non default port stuff, the code uses the testnet default port if its missing the port #.

But more specifically in our case, I think what happens is we set up a sanctuary, we run it, and if the pro-tx is sent after the sanc boots, (I think) the sanc actually starts up and goes to enabled, but -- I could be wrong about this -- but I think the activeMasternodeInfo (this is the struct that displays its status) isnt actually updated until you reboot.

My big question on that will actually need an answer soon for apollon, because they want us to provision a deterministic sanctuary without asking them to reboot the node :).  So we will have to figure this out for sure soon.

Hmm am i on a different chain? I seem to have lost the tBBP you sent....

I had to stop the controller wallet to lock the outputs and when i restarted ( several times), the balanced was not updated.

Will instructions differ for someone who creates a sanctuary after having bought 4.55M from an exchange and want to self-host?


The upgradesanc only applies if a 4.55M sanctuary already exists but upgrading to a newer version?


I want to write a sanctuary set up guide but it is not clear what the sanctuary creation options are.

Well, its not that the instructions change based on receiving the funds, its more of which route you want to go when you create the deterministic sanc:

Route A)  If you follow the Dash instructions, they are a full page and pretty complicated. 

Route B)  We ask you to create the sanctuary the legacy way, and that allows you to implement the first phase of the deterministic sanc.  Then we ask you to run the upgradesanc command to finish it. 

One other thing to consider is Apollon is actually adding a new twist to this - they are having us add a couple RPC commands for them - one that will allow them to generate the bls privkey first and give it to the user- so there is a great chance we can make a special command that is different than upgradesanc soon, once I hear back from them.

So best bet is to wait for this info.

1) It appears your remote sanc node is not listening on 8080 (I tried to telnet to it).
Try to add "port=8080" to your sanctuary config file and restart it.

2) Were you able to resolve not being synced yesterday, was it a non issue?

Thank you. It was not working with ip:port but adding port=8080 as an extra line in the config works. Now shows ready.

Syncing was not the issue. I accidentally deleted the entire .biblepayevolution folder but I learnt my lesson from before and restored from a backup wallet.dat. So all 3 sancs synced and ready.

Hi Everyone,

So with DSQL/Christian Spaces coming out, we have a lot related to the Develop QT wallet we can test in the DSQL thread.

Im going to keep both threads open, but I invite you all to join me here for a while:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5188626.0

Because we will be having a new testnet develop release tonight with some new features and you all can help test those in the bitcointalk thread.

Thanks!

Ok, with PODC 2.0 coming soon, lets not use the Christian Spaces thread for testing.

Lets focus on:
-reviving our sanctuaries
-reviving our state in testnet
-ensuring we are synced
-enabling WCG miners so we can utilize the CPID and credit RAC in testnet

In the mean time, I will add a command to the develop branch that allows us to send the pro_reg Update Service command (the BiblePay way) - that takes advantage of the deterministic.conf file, so we can revive our failing sancs.
