Link between pool and website ?

[BatLesStakes]

Hey, When I run the pool, everything is fine aprt one thing : THe website shows nothing and network error when I try to connect through IP and domain name

Any ideas ?

Thanks

Are you hosting the webfiles on a server that has a webhost server on it? If you do you also have to configure the web files to connect back to the stats of the pool server.

[BatLesStakes]

It has Nginx and we see the wensite but no interface, loading to death http://etnpool.fr

[Zer0dn]

The web config isnt set properly for the stats server. Or you have a firewall blocking the stats url on the node server

Check the config.js on the website side ... it should look like

var api = "http://urnodeserver:8117"; <--This is the critical cause of the refresh loop. It isnt communicating with whatever you have listed in here. Ensure this works on the node server.

var coinUnits = 100; var coinDecimalPlaces = 0;

var poolHost = "urnodeserver";

var irc = "irc.freenode.net/#monero-pools";

var email = "support@urwebserverTLD";

var blockchainExplorer = "https://blockexplorer.electroneum.com/block/";

var transactionExplorer = "https://blockexplorer.electroneum.com/tx/";

So I put my local address (IPV4), URL or 127.0.0.1 ?

[Zer0dn]

You would replace http://urnodeserver:8117 With what ever address the webserver (where the webfiles are hosted at) can connect to the node server. IE. If you have your webpages hosted on a separate cpanel host at say www.etnpool.fl and the node host is reachable in relation to that cpanel server via the public IP of 62.55.182.99 then you would set your config.js file with that line reading:

var api = "http://62.55.182.99:8117";

if the node and webserver are on the same server then yes you can send it to localhost or 127.0.0.1 if that is the IP you bound the stats api to in the node config.json file

[BatLesStakes]

Why this IP ? It's not my server IP And yeah, web part and pool are on the same server

[BatLesStakes]

//var api = "https://eupool.electroneum.com/api"; //var api = "http://62.55.182.99:8117"; var api = 'http://127.0.0.1:8117';

var coinUnits = 100; var coinDecimalPlaces = 2;

var poolHost = "127.0.0.1";

var irc = "irc.freenode.net/#monero-pools";

var email = "treasurechasalion@gmail.com";

var easyminerDownload = "https://github.com/zone117x/cryptonote-easy-miner/releases/";

var blockchainExplorer = "https://blockexplorer.electroneum.com/block/";

var transactionExplorer = "https://blockexplorer.electroneum.com/tx/";

This is what I made, 62.55.182.99 is not my IP address btw

[Zer0dn]

62.55.182.99 was an example.

Ok to troubleshoot here is what is needed.

1. Is the Node Server the same server that is hosting the webpages for the POOL? 1A. If not what is the IP of the node server and what is the IP of the Webpage Server for the Pool?

If the answer to 1 is yes then 127.0.0.1:8117 should work provided there is not a firewall on the server that is blocking that port. If the answer to 1 is no then please answer the information needed in 1A.

[BatLesStakes]

Okay I'll have a look at.

1. Yes, everything (wallet, pool, website) is on the same server

[BatLesStakes]

Okay so it's opened now but still nothing

[Zer0dn]

Ok I can confirm now that the http://etnpool.fr:8117/stats shows your stats.

Change your config.js file to

var api = "http://etnpool.fr:8117";

var coinUnits = 100; var coinDecimalPlaces = 0;

var poolHost = "http://etnpool.fr";

vvar irc = "irc.freenode.net/#monero-pools";

var email = "treasurechasalion@gmail.com";

var easyminerDownload = "https://github.com/zone117x/cryptonote-easy-miner/releases/";

var blockchainExplorer = "https://blockexplorer.electroneum.com/block/";

var transactionExplorer = "https://blockexplorer.electroneum.com/tx/";

[BatLesStakes]

Still the same

[BatLesStakes]

Maybe a NGINX issue

[Zer0dn]

I have confirmed the config.js is set right now.

It should be working. The config.js is executed by the user's browser side so not an internal NGINX issue or even pool software. One thing that may keep it from working is file security. What are the perms set to in the website side files? Specifically for config.js?

[BatLesStakes]

I don't see what you mean, it's accessible from non-root users

[BatLesStakes]

And I'm running the pool as root

[BatLesStakes]

We can see the pool on etnpool.fr:8117/stats and we can mine on it but no web interface

[Zer0dn]

Run the command below

ls -l config.js

In the directory where the config.js file resides.

-Also why would you run the pool as root? The instructions say the opposite. This can be related as well. At a minimum it could expose your system to attack. My recommendation is to reinstall everything from wallet to webhost platform and run using users who have sudo access that are not 'root'

[BatLesStakes]

It's a normal account and I do sudo su and then node init.js

[Zer0dn]

That is not in the instructions and can lead to stuff like this. Still awaiting the

ls -l config.js

on the config.js where the webfiles are stored please.

Ok I have traced it down to an issue with the webhost software or firewall but nothing to do with the pool software. I was able to put your settings from your config.js file into my pool test and was able to access the stats.

For testing you could open the firewall up temporarily and then start closing it back down to see which rule may be blocking it. The issue could also be the web hosting setup. As we are not privy to what you are running for those yet then it is speculation by elimination.

[Zer0dn]

[BatLesStakes]

Firewall is disabled tbh

[Zer0dn]

That leaves the webhost platform.

[BatLesStakes]

What do you mean ?

[Zer0dn]

What http server are you using to host the webfiles? Like apache etc?
