your pool with that pool-id is already registered on the blockchain. so this should be a re-registration. how did you register it the first time? it is registered with this metadata json url "https://kokosz.nerdpol.ovh/mypool.metadata.json" and not the url you're using above "https://pastebin.com/raw/7E7Xc12A" so, how did you register it? have you registered it before and than deleted the json or removed some entries in it?

[matiwinnetou]

Yes, I deleted some entries because I thought this is needed to be able to change values there. I wanted to change metadata url since at the moment I cannot host it in the url I put initially. What should one do in such case?

[gitmachtl]

so, the scripts are tracking the data in the json, deleting the regSubmitted key in the json is not good. now the script does not know anymore that the pool was registered before. also the latest version of the 05a script generates a dummy json with a special line like "dont edit below this line" :-)

So to fix that, run the 05c again with your parameters and add the keyword REREG, to force a re-registration. Your re-registration needs some epochs to become valid on the chain.

Thanks! You are a star!
