Payments cannot be paid automatically to miners

[fanmaomao]

I built a private testnet on my computer, it has three nodes, one of them provides service to the mine pool, then I set up two miners to connect to the pool, every service works well, but after a long time the mine pool did not pay to the miners, the payments service log is:

Database Worker: LMDB Env Initialized.
Setting the payment timer to: 20 minutes with a: 10 minute delay if the wallet is out of money
Loaded all payees into the system for processing

then I use DEBUG=* pm2 start init.js --name=payments --log-date-format="YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm Z" -- --module=payments to restart the service, but the service automatically restarts again and again, the error log is:

Database Worker: LMDB Env Initialized.

These addresses are testnet address, and my monerod and monero-wallet-cli works well, and all nodes and miners are mining, but i use postman post a request to 127.0.0.1:28082/json_rpc cannot connection， I don't know where my problem is， hope to get your help, thanks!

Are your pool wallet and fee wallet in testnet ? Put donations to ZERO (because donation addresses are not testnet addresses).

[fanmaomao]

I have considered your conjecture, the donations addresses are already testnet address.

I think my problem is that the rpc service has a bad response : {"bytesParsed":0,"code":"HPE_INVALID_CONSTANT"} I search this message, it seems like a network error.

So I recheck my services, I found that I only started the wallet cli service to mine and forget started the wallet rpc service ....... 😓

Then I encountered another problem ...

I use /usr/local/src/monero/monerod --testnet --data-dir ~/xmr_testnet/01/ --p2p-bind-port 28080 --rpc-bind-port 28081 --add-exclusive-node 127.0.0.1:38080 --add-exclusive-node 127.0.0.1:48080 to start the monerod and I use /usr/local/src/monero/monero-wallet-rpc --testnet --daemon-port 28081 --rpc-bind-port 28082 --wallet-file ~/xmr_testnet/wallets/pool_main.keys --password "******" to start the wallet rpc .

I can't start the wallet rpc service because the port(28082) is already in use. I use netstat -anp | grep 28082 and get this message: tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:28082 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 20262/monerod

It makes me very 🤔

[bobbieltd]

Not sure if it is the cause In testnet monero mode, uint16_t const ZMQ_RPC_DEFAULT_PORT = 28082; It is used by defaut with monero testnet.

[bobbieltd]

For undefined “fee” property, if you checked everything, restart that module + blockManager will fix it.

[fanmaomao]

I used --zmq-rpc-bind-port 28082 at first time, monerod also use 28082 port, I think this is a wrong usage, so I removed it

The property fee is undefined because body is {"bytesParsed":0,"code":"HPE_INVALID_CONSTANT"} on line 304 in /lib/payment_systems/xmr.js and because my monero-wallet-rpc is not running.

[fanmaomao]

I checked the v0.11.1.0 monerod, It didn't have --zmq-rpc-bind-port config, it didn't listen 28082.

I gave up running the monero-wallet-rpc service on port 28082, it is running on port 28083, it work well.

[fanmaomao]

After solving the rpc problem, I encountered a new trouble. 😫😫😫

[alexmateescu]

how did you fix the rpc issue? i am seeing the same thing

[fanmaomao]

@alexmateescu I have no idea to fix this, I try to use the public testnet and tagenet, transfer works well.
