Issue when trying to create a validator

[b10c77]

I've followed the instructions on how to become a validator: https://docs.canto.io/technical-reference/validators/becoming-a-validator

But upon starting the cantod service I get the following error message: 11:44PM ERR failed init node error="error during handshake: error on replay: validator set is nil in genesis and still empty after InitChain"

Any idea what I'm missing?

+1 with this error. Happens with auto-generated (after cantod init) and downloaded genesis.json

[tkkwon1998]

I believe this is an issue with using the wrong genesis.json.

One issue that others have run into is when they wget the genesis, it does not overwrite the old genesis.json. If this is the case, you must either remove the old genesis file before the wget, or you must replace the old genesis.json with the new one, which will likely be called genesis1.json or something along those lines.

[kiltum]

Check twice. It definitely not genesis ;( At this point I thinks I should not use latest git version.

[kiltum]

Ok, now I create absolutely new VM for canto. Now results much better

Try 1, with "release 2.0" sources, not git

cantod simply crushed

No any sign of No addresses to dial. Falling back to seeds module=pex server=node

So, whats wrong at this time?

[Alexander-Herranz]

I've followed the instructions on how to become a validator: https://docs.canto.io/technical-reference/validators/becoming-a-validator

But upon starting the cantod service I get the following error message: 11:44PM ERR failed init node error="error during handshake: error on replay: validator set is nil in genesis and still empty after InitChain"

Any idea what I'm missing?

+1 Facing the some error.

Anyone in Canto team with an answer? I prefer not experimenting when setting up a validator node, but follow the official instructions.

[L2b2n]

before you do main folder make install in canto you should have this file in this folder bro

Then save the generated public key config in the main Canto directory as .info. It should look like this:

pubkey: { "@type":" ethermint.crypto.v1.ethsecp256k1.PubKey", "key":"############################################" }

[Alexander-Herranz]

I tried the process again, ensuring to have the file already created when doing "make install", but no luck... I think that something is missing in the documentation, or something is broken in the current configuration.
