Transactions are successsful but I receive nothing!

SaitamaTechno commented 2 months ago

I run dogecoind and dogecoin-cli in local network linux and also in cloud linux, everything looks working. I can create wallets and I want to send doge into them I sent 1 doge to the local one and then I sent 0.2doge to the cloud one. And I didnt receive anything. the cloud one has open port to the public internet thats why I also used it. one of them has 75 confirmation and the other one has 15 confirmation but I got nothing why?

I sent doges from block.io website

txid for 1doge: https://sochain.com/tx/DOGE/b8cb47685a71f26f33f4cdb822750826c8fa2f191e91f14debeee55a93ac0f7a txid for 0.2doge: https://sochain.com/tx/DOGE/d9be1cfc3aeefa5d11f3b8d6a882f7d03fe256bafcfda40ac5bd45b44e99234d

I am on the main network by: dogecoin-cli getblockchaininfo

patricklodder commented 2 months ago

I see these transactions on my nodes. On the node with your wallet, could you please let us know:

dogecoin-cli getblockchaininfo and check the value for blocks to be > 5,123,502
dogecoin-cli getwalletinfo should give you a txcount of > 1
dogecoin-cli listunspent should list these
How do you query your balance?

hello, I think it is because of synchronizing, my node is not complete. I am new to it, i didnt know the reason before I open the issue. But now I have another issue, my dogecoin server keeps stopping after like 5 minutes. it says: error: couldn't connect to server: unknown (code -1) (make sure server is running and you are connecting to the correct RPC port)

Another question: how do i publish the node without downloading all blockchain? I used pruning but it looks it still tries to download everything .

But now I have another issue, my dogecoin server keeps stopping after like 5 minutes.

Could you check the bottom of debug.log after it's shut down? Should be:

tail -n 50 ~/.dogecoin/debug.log

"blocks": 99531,

this is why your balance is still zero, you're over 5 million blocks behind.

config

dbcache=4
..
addnode=[blah]

Why do you have a 4 mb cache?
Why do you have all these addnode?

SaitamaTechno commented 2 months ago

5 million blocks, yeah as i said I understand it after opening the issue.

is that 4mb cache, wow i need to make it more! I Thought my vps server (2gb RAM) does not have enough ram when i see it fails in 5 minutes, and I searched somebody make dbcache 4 and said everything works fine. Then i did so.

Addnodes are for faster downloading the blockchain i think, again I saw it on the internet.

patricklodder commented 2 months ago

Thought my vps server (2gb RAM) does not have enough RAM.

I saw the 2GB. It's really low and your node may get killed for being out of memory, but per the above, I'd need to see the bottom of your log to help further investigate.

Addnodes are for faster downloading the blockchain i think

If everyone uses the same nodes, then the rest of the network is idle. Since even my newer Xeons cannot serve 125 peers with current network demand, it may be faster to not use addnode at all, or at least you'll have better chance of hitting an idle node instead of the subset of nodes multiple people are using.

Better to not add nodes because someone on the internet says so either, as it could help an attacker eclipse attack your node.

SaitamaTechno commented 2 months ago

I deleted addnodes and dbcache and edited my conf file as: rpcuser=username rpcpassword=passwd prune=2300

this is the error I get when the server is down: root@c85teybxy2:~# dogecoin-cli getblockchaininfo error: couldn't connect to server: unknown (code -1) (make sure server is running and you are connecting to the correct RPC port)

do you know the reason?

These are the last lines of my debug.log:

This could mean it gets OOM-killed (as there is no indication of a clean shutdown)

Try:

dmesg -T | grep killed

SaitamaTechno commented 2 months ago

nothing is printed

hello, I created a new server with 4gb of ram and downloaded all the blockcahin pruning 50gb. I am now able to receive and sign transactions. perhaps the problem was pruning. because i started the core server without pruning then I restarted it with pruning, it caused failure. Now i learned that i need to delete all the blockchain and download all from scratch. I havent tried 2gb version yet. But i will try and we'll see. Since I found my solution I will close the issue as solved. Also, thanks for your effort!

I recently did this myself (prune an unpruned node) and I didn't have issues. I will re-check this on v1.14.7 release binaries to be sure.

@RnoHach for the sake of lurking

SaitamaTechno commented 1 month ago

hey @patricklodder , it looks the problem is because of the limited ram. the issue remains for 2gb ram. it fails after some time. I also checked the used ram it goes almost 1.8gb/1.9gb. When it continues it increases up to 1.9/1.9 and goes out of ram. I also did some reducing ram steps and I think it was written by you, @patricklodder . It looks like it works at the begining but after some time it again runs out of ram and also very slow initialising. So I again created a 4gb ram vps server and i am downloading the blockchain.

"verificationprogress": 0.088 and ram usage= 2.4gb probably by dogecoin node.

You can check my node by clicking: http://154.53.180.195/ and also for checking ram: http://154.53.180.195/ram it will be available until initialising finished.
