#205

Works! Pushes to GitHub too.

What is the flot-operations repository used for?

python main.py --recipient BXKidrUiYNgRmDeDX61k6CASEJ2HjM8pUF --amount 0.1

Multisig address seems valid.

#206

Itā€™s used for storing unspent outputs of the address in pubconfig.py. If one person git pushes it will be up-to-date. Then it can be retrieved by software that does not have access to the blockchain.

#207

Ahh, neat.

#208

facepalm could have recognized that myselfā€¦
Well spotted, @jooize!

Fixed that. Next error:

 python main.py --recipient BXKidrUiYNgRmDeDX61k6CASEJ2HjM8pUF --amount 0.1

It seems I donā€™t know how to use this fine piece of softwareā€¦ :frowning:
My pubconfig.py looks like this - with the right nud rpc parameters of course:

#209

Youā€™ll need to look at config-example.py and create a file called config.py. I did it this way so you can directly git pull from git-multisig without affecting your personal settings.

#210

Ah! Iā€™ll try - didnā€™t read Tier 4 Fund Management Discussion careful enough and edited only pubconfig.py (inserting the rpc config there), but not config.py

Sorry for the trouble I caused.
Works great now!

#211

Sorry for the trouble caused by the buggy software. If you feel comfortable that it git pushes, you can fork flot-operations and enable git, which will cause you to git push and update the address snapshot. After enabling git you should remove the flot-operations folder (just this once) before running the script again. Thanks for testing.

Itā€™s weird that your first line failed despite a correct pubconfig.py; are you running on testnet?

#212

Will do!
The script works fine if I donā€™t mess with the RTFM part :wink:

No, but I created a blank wallet in which Iā€™m going to have only my key pair associated with the multisig address. Havenā€™t imported the private key yetā€¦

#213

It should work without any private key, as it only checks the sanity of pubconfig.py. Perhaps the blank wallet is read-only? By the way Iā€™ve just forgotten a crucial part: for various use cases you need txindex=1 in nu.confā€¦ I hope this wasnā€™t a problem for @jooize.

#214

Iā€™d be stopping with my spam messages here in the thread and continue via PM if I didnā€™t think this might help othersā€¦

After

  • forking flot-operation into my github account
  • enabling SSH for this github account
  • adding the SSH private key to the key agent of my RaspberryPi
  • deleting the flot-operations folder from git-multisig/on my RaspberryPi and
  • enabling git for git-multisig I get a new error:

I understand nothing, Iā€™m Jon Snow.

Forces a reindexing of the blockchain files (which might take some time on a RaspberryPiā€¦), right?

#215

What is the number at the top of the unspent file? Says 627283 in mine and 627286 (+3) in yours. Aaand the other lines, if you have time.

I donā€™t have that, so I guess it isnā€™t needed for what Iā€™ve done this far. Iā€™ll put it there.

Doesnā€™t seem like that.

#216

?
Nope:

#217

Oh right, sorry. I meant that first part to @dysconnect!

#218

:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: I think I give up for now and prepare for a fresh attempt laterā€¦

#219

The first line is the highest block that youā€™ve synced. Just a way to keep track of stuff. The rest lists the unspent outputs.

@masterofdisaster Looks like youā€™re running an older version of git. Iā€™ll find a way that doesnā€™t require that.

#220

My RaspberryPi runs

git --version
git version 1.7.10.4

Iā€™m sorry that I have no coding skills and canā€™t find those answers myself. The script you provided looks very impressive and using github (because it can be viewed publicly) as a place to store and update information automatically is awesome!

#221

Yeah it uses a feature introduced in git 1.8.5ā€¦ itā€™s not crucial right now, I can find a way around it. You can assume youā€™d be ready after you update git or Iā€™ve updated my scripts (and cleared the bugs). Sorry for the mess.

#222

@jooize @masterOfDisaster
Sorry to bother you with this, I still want to see whether txindex=1 is really required. If you do not have txindex=1 (or set it without -reindex), does the following rpc command work?

getrawtransaction addab8120e5bebf93f6f5abb8469c255d39ce539a15ae52343a85d813379d4fd 1

#223

The git version 1.7.10.4 is the most recent in the Raspbian repos.

Iā€™m neither keen for compiling git from source nor using backports. The more adjustments, the harder to restore if something breaks before the next full backup - normally I try to keep my Raspbian as close to standard as possible.
Iā€™d really appreciate if you could find a way around that feature.
If it makes too much trouble (you already put a lot of efforts into this script, I guess), Iā€™m compiling git from source![quote=ā€œdysconnect, post:222, topic:2902ā€]
does the following rpc command work?

getrawtransaction addab8120e5bebf93f6f5abb8469c255d39ce539a15ae52343a85d813379d4fd 1

It appears to work without txindex=1. I havenā€™t put it in nu.conf yet, and itā€™s not there already.

The output is large, but do you want it? Oh, the boxes scroll! Well, thatā€™s what I get too.
