Issue with vnode

[vizar]

Hey guys i’m new to community and i do believe in this project and i want to be part of it by creating vnode but i got some issues with my node.Yesterday i installed docker at my home pc then run command as stated in tutorial.Then went to app and put my ip but after 1 full days my node is still missing.I’m looking for some help

First of all Welcome to Incognito, pleasure to have you.

To add to this, this was the original error message @vizar received. Im not amazing with nodes, but it looked like docker was missing, had him install docker and also enabled docker on system boot. After this, user ran the script to build the server once again and no error was thrown. Yet their node doesnt show up within the app.
Does this information sound about correct? @vizar? I

[vizar]

Yes this is all about it.

From what I see it’s saying problem running Apt::Update. Was this ran with Sudo?

Please check through the commands used to run the install script. Make sure you include sudo.

If need be try using the following script instead. If you just have 1 virtual node then only put 1 validator key.

Multi-VNode script

Hi everyone, I’ve decided to make the script I’m using for running multiple Node Virtuals on a single machine public: You just need to add in your validator keys at the top and it’ll create a Node Virtual for each one. The first node will be on port 9334, 2nd on 9335, and so on. To add them to your app follow the instructions here to add nodes with custom ports: Advanced set up: customize the port of your Node

[Chucky]

User mentioned that they did apt-get update / apt-get upgrade as well. Im not sure but he might be working on root, this is on a dedicated pc not a vps.

Just running the VPS script on a home computer may not be enough. Did you open the ports the Node is using? 9334 and 9433

[vizar]

Yes ports are open both on modem and pc.Node is still missing.

[abduraman]

Could you share the output of sudo docker ps or sudo docker stats?

In addition, from another computer, please try telnet node_ip 9334 and telnet node_ip 9433. And what are their outputs?

[vizar]

Cant connect with telnet.Connection failed.

[abduraman]

If it is not something else, this means that your ports are not accessible from outside. If it worked, the connection would be established. And if you entered some random texts, you would get some non-sense response.

To ensure that the issue is really so, you may try an online port scanner like https://pentest-tools.com/network-vulnerability-scanning/tcp-port-scanner-online-nmap (please do not forget adding 9334 and 9433 unless added)

I opened ports but they seem as filtered on program i dont know meaning of that.

I just added my IP when adding the node…

What should I do?

thanks,

Abdurraman told me that you should also open ports on router and then do port forwarding.I dont want to go with this way because i am not good at network security so i went via vps.

[John_98]

ok tks will try this

[John_98]

A guide on how to do this would be very helpful…

[vizar]

The process changes with modem model you should look at youtube.Its not that hard.
