Error on Creating a bitcoin-style blockchain

Question

I created a a bitcoin-style blockchain on Ubuntu 14,

and downloaded the parameters file from http://www.multichain.com/download/bitcoin-protocol-params.dat

and modified the default-network-port from 8333 to 8444.

then start "multichaind mybitcoin -daemon"

It seems that the node is not started：

/*************************************************************

MultiChain Core Daemon build 1.0 beta 1 protocol 10008

MultiChain server starting
Looking for genesis block...
Genesis block found

Other nodes can connect to this node using:
multichaind mybitcoin@192.186.0.106:8444

Protocol version 10002

*************************************************************/

 

Where's the problem?

 

 

 

Answer 1

I can't see any problem with the output you're showing, but in a general sense, there is an issue with beta 1 connecting to the bitcoin network, which we've already fixed and will be released in beta 2 in the next couple of weeks. This might also affect the ability to create your own bitcoin-style network.

Comments

the problems are:

1.  there is no "Node started"  output

2. execute "ps -x" , there is no multichaind process

3. execute "multichain-cli mybitcoin getinfo" , couldn't connect to the server

  /*********************************
