Guía de instalación y solución de problemas

• Cree una carpeta Idena en su escritorio donde se ejecutará el nodo
• Descargue la última versión del nodo Idena: idena-node-mac-x.xx.x
• Mueva el archivo descargado a la carpeta Idena recién creada
• Open the terminal
• Cambie a la carpeta Idena escribiendo cd:

cd ~/Desktop/Idena

• Haga que el archivo sea ejecutable escribiendo el comando chmod +x:

chmod +x idena-node-mac-x.xx.x

• Ejecute el nodo:

./idena-node-mac-x.xx.x

• Download the latest Idena Client and install it
• Abra Idena como una aplicación normal
• If macOS complains about an unidentified developer please follow the macOS User Guide

La clave privada se genera automáticamente una vez que se inicia el nodo por primera vez. Puede encontrar la clave privada en el directorio donde se encuentra el nodo:

MacOS (built-in node)

cd ~/Library/Application\ Support/Idena/node/datadir/nodekey/
open .

Windows (built-in node)

%appdata%/Idena/node/datadir/keystore/nodekey

Linux (built-in node)

~/.config/Idena/node/datadir/keystore

Nodo remoto

./datadir/keystore/nodekey

Make sure to backup the nodekey file securely since the current node version x.xx.x does not support private key encryption.

Para ejecutar el nodo con su dirección existente en otra computadora, haga una copia de la clave privada de su nodo. Puede encontrar el archivo de clave privada en el directorio donde se encuentra el nodo:

./datadir/keystore/nodekey

Copy the nodekey file to the new location and restart the node

• Install npm
• Get the Idena client source code from the github repository
• Instale las dependencias:
npm install
• Ejecute la aplicación:
npm run start

Puede utilizar la siguiente configuración mínima de VPS para ejecutar el nodo Idena:

• Linux/x64
• 2 CPU core
• 2 Gb RAM
• 100 Gb HDD
• 100 Mbps uplink

1. Check your VPS ports settings

Open the following port to allow discovering of your node by other peers:

• 40405

The Idena node RPC is running at 9009 port by default. Please make sure that 9009 port is closed. If you want to connect to your node remotely use a tunnel connection.

2. Disable private IP addresses scanning

Create the following config file at the same folder where the node is located (download example: config.json):

Run the node with the --config parameter:

3. More details

1. Establish tunnel connection (using PuTTy)

• Install PuTTY on your local computer
• Connect to your server with PuTTY using the following tunnel configuration:


PuTTY tunnel connection configuration

Using ssh

You can also setup tunnel connection using ssh:

ssh -L 9999:localhost:9009 YOUR_VPS_IP

2. Specify Idena node connection parameters

• Open Settings page in the Idena app
• Activate 'Connect to remote node' toggle


Idena remote node connection settings

• Specify remote node connection address as follows:



http://localhost:9999

• Specify node api-key parameter for the secure connection.

Api-key can be found in the following flie:

./datadir/api.key

You can also run the node with a custom api-key using apikey parameter:

idena-node-linux-x.xx.x --apikey=MY_API_KEY

Run the node with the lowpower profile parameter specified:

Windows

idena-node-win-x.xx.x.exe --profile=lowpower

macOS

./idena-node-mac-x.xx.x --profile=lowpower

cd ~/Library/Application\ Support/Idena/node/datadir/logs/
open .

%appdata%/Idena/node/datadir/logs/

~/.config/Idena/node/datadir/logs/

The log file can be found in the same directory where the Idena node is located:

./datadir/logs/output.log

Windows

In order to find the Idena client log files, open the following directory in the Windows file explorer:

%appdata%/Idena/Logs/

macOS

In order to find the Idena client log files, type the following in the terminal:

cd ~/Library/Logs/Idena
open .
