Immediate mandatory upgrade for Nu and B&C Exchange

Oh, cool! I just use the Nu.app/Contents/MacOS/Nu binary. Thanks.

Edit:

Is it possible to run it headlessly?

RPC username and password set in nu.conf. Testnet nodes.

cd /Applications/Nu.app/Contents/MacOS
./Nu -testnet -server -addnode=198.52.200.26 -addnode=198.52.199.30 -addnode=62.210.25.6

Does it handle several nodes as arguments? getpeerinfo in the debug window only shows me the last one, and getaddednodeinfo isn’t implemented.

After attemping to connect using -connect I’ve concluded the first two nodes are down.

Can I add testnet nodes in the shared nu.conf?

Can I drop it into the background easily? Occupies the terminal as it is. I know about & but I can’t close the shell (zsh: you have running jobs.) or rather if I do it kills the process.

In another terminal shell:

cd /Applications/Nu.app/Contents/MacOS
./Nu -testnet getinfo

That opens another instance (which throws an error as the testnet files are already in use), so how do I use the running one?

You’ll need to compile your own version of nud if you need it. There’s a dependency linking issue that causes a statically compiling the app from my machine to crash when it is opened on a separate machine.

It’s not a problem with Nu, but a problem with my local environment. I’d spent a bunch of time trying to fix it a few months back and just gave up after beating my head against the wall. I figure that anyone who’s interested in running nud vs. the Qt client has enough of a technical background that they’d be able to compile it themselves.

With the next major update I’ll be able to revisit the issue because the build system will be changing with the replacement of BerkeleyDB with LevelDB.

Just a reminder, can you please someone update nubits.com/downloads with the direct link to the dmg?
