[SUPPORT] SmartPhoneLover - Monero Local Node

monero-node_200x200.png

 

This docker template was created based on an already available 3rd-party docker image

 

Documentation: https://monerodocs.org/interacting/monerod-reference/

DockerHub: https://hub.docker.com/r/kannix/monero-full-node

GitHub: https://github.com/kannix/monero-full-node

My Repository: https://github.com/SmartPhoneLover/unraid-docker-templates

 

DESCRIPTION
This docker template will allow you to run a local Monero (XMR) node on your unRAID server.

 

NOTES
• If you are going to expose it to the public to contribute with the network, make sure you ALWAYS use it behind a firewall properly configured.
• As having a full node running 24/7 is an intensive task for the storage unit(s) where it will be saved on, it's recommended to install it on a separate disk (HDD/SSD), not on the array.
• This container doesn't have a WebUI. You will only need to configure your client to connect to this container, using the format: IP_SERVER:PORT2.

 

VERSION
1.0 (2021-11-29)

 

 

If you are going to report a bug or request something to be added/modified, please, take into consideration that I will only be able to apply changes for the work I own only. For example, if I create a docker template for an already existing docker image (not created by me), I won't be able to do more for that image than forward your report or request to the owner of the project.

Thank you very much 🙂

Hey I downloaded this container and the blockchain downloaded on my Unraid, but I cant seem to connect to the node on my wallets.

 

Every time I try to connect it just says disconnected immediately. Is there any username or password? Im typing in IP_ADDRESS:18080

 

Edit: Tried on both Monero-GUI-Wallet and Feather Wallet, same result

 

Thanks

Hi @amnesia,

Sorry to hear that, but when I tested it on my Monero-GUI application (Windows) it got successfully connected, and immediately.

If it's not a problem for you, I can check it again with Monero-GUI and Feather wallet. Just give me 1  or 2 days.

 

And about username or password, no. There's no user or password that you have to configure on the client side. The only username that is used, but within the template, is the 'monerod', but it's only used by the daemon.

Hi @SmartPhoneLover,

how do I update it manually?

I'm seeing this info in the log:

2021-12-18 15:57:35.089 I Version 0.17.2.3 of monero for linux-x64 is available: https://downloads.getmonero.org/cli/monero-linux-x64-v0.17.2.3.tar.bz2, SHA256 hash 8069012ad5e7b35f79e35e6ca71c2424efc54b61f6f93238b182981ba83f2311

 

Also, @amnesia, it connects via the 18081 port (in my case I chose 17081 since 180xx is used by freepbx.

Hi, I unable to start the docker. I have this error in my log.

 

E Exception in main! boost::filesystem::create_directory: Permission denied: "/home/monero/.bitmonero/lmdb"

 

Any advice? Thank you

I had this problem and noticed of the 3 drive mappings I sent all of them to my ssd drive (not cache).  I deleted and reinstalled but this time set the first 2 mappings to appdata and the blockchain to my ssd.  Not sure if that was the problem but on second install it worked.

 

**Also I accidentally didnt have my ssd mounted the first time which probably was the problem.

Hi there - I'm getting the permissions issues too.

 

At first I got: Permission denied: E Exception in main! boost::filesystem::create_directory: "/mnt/monero/monero/.bitmonero/lmdb"

So I just made the folder manually.

 

Now I'm getting: 2022-05-06 14:41:58.128 I Initializing cryptonote protocol...
2022-05-06 14:41:58.128 I Cryptonote protocol initialized OK

Any ideas?

My solution to this error message was to give ready/write permission to everyone (drwxrwxrwx)
