The gui tells me I'm mining but I'm definitely not. 16:54:53 I'm trying to troubleshoot by running the command "./p2pool" from /opt/monero 16:57:52 I get an error message: Log failed to open p2pool.log and some usage information 16:57:52 If I run ./p2pool --host 127.0.0.1 --wallet MYADDRESS I still get the error message it does appear to start syncing 16:57:53 does the command have to include all of this: 16:57:53 ./p2pool --host 127.0.0.1 --rpc-port 18081 --zmq-port 18083 --wallet YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS --stratum 0.0.0.0:3333 --p2p 0.0.0.0:37889 16:58:59 I do not have anything related to zmq set in my monerod config file, nor do I know what a stratum server is or why I should specify --p2P 17:00:24 regarding the p2pool.log file, I can see it has different permissions that the p2pool file: 17:00:24 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2862648 Jul 8 16:50 p2pool 17:00:24 -rw------- 1 root root 6262 Dec 8 22:23 p2pool.log 17:34:02 it can't open p2pool.log because only root has permissions for it 17:34:51 what's the full path to p2pool binary? what are file permissions on that folder and what user do you run it under? 17:50:36 /opt/monero/p2pool 17:50:36 the file permissions for /opt/monero are 17:50:36 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 8 22:23 monero 17:50:36 I tried to run p2pool under my regular user 17:51:32 ok I made myself owner or p2pool.log and now I don't have the error anymore 18:00:17 Ok, I think I know what's going on. I'm running p2pool as a regular user, which means it cannot write to /opt/monero because it's owned by root. 18:10:41 move it out of /opt/ and put it in ~/ 18:11:13 thats the first step in my opinion 18:12:23 https://cryptoanarchy.wiki/#notable-projects 18:13:09 Save_G[m]: why isnt monero in there 18:13:14 why is centralised etherium and bitcoin on there but not Monero has anyone talked to the people running the cryptoanarchy movement?

18:53:53 rmonteiro[xmpp]: Hi I'm new here 18:53:54 is there a known regression with sync speed on MacOS (M1/arm64)? it took more time to sync the last ~2 months of chain state on Mac than syncing the _entire_ chain state on a linux machine. both on the same network, both with SSDs, and with the MacOS machine having better CPU and SSD performance. 18:54:16 rmonteiro[xmpp]: What does my username shoe up as when I type all I see is is a capital r 18:56:29 How much RAM on that Mac? 18:58:43 32 GB on both machines. it never used more than 2GB from what I could see 19:00:03 zone117x: which version? 19:00:37 and when did you sync up on macOS and when Linux 19:01:07 latest versions as of today. did both today 19:01:15 latest from github releases 19:01:17 Did not know Apple was making 32GB Mac with M1, nice to know. 19:01:18 My monero daemon use 10.1GB in a 16GB VM 19:01:18 164GB virtual so the whole blockchain is "allocated" in "ram" 19:01:26 if you're only use 2GB then my guess is that it constantly use the storage to validate each TX instead of using some local cache in RAM, slowing down the whole process by a few order of magnitude 19:01:42 there's no 32gb m1 as far as i'm aware of 19:01:45 m1 pro only 19:02:40 you folks are living in 2020 :) there are 64GB models available 19:03:30 do you have the time it took to sync for both? 19:05:06 > if you're only use 2GB then my guess is that it constantly use the storage to validate each TX instead of using some local cache in RAM, slowing down the whole process by a few order of magnitude 19:05:06 this is pretty strange to me. disk usage never appeared to be anywhere close to peak. even if this was the problem, it would be strange to me if the buffering/threading implementation was so poor that a potential bottleneck in disk slowed down everything else (as opposed to buffering more data in memory) 19:07:56 don't need to peek. 19:07:56 data access take more time when the TX are read from disk. 19:08:00 * from disk/ssd. 19:08:50 if you add 1ms for each TX to read plus 1ms for each TX decoy from that TX to read then it really addup at the end 19:09:58 i've synced up both m1 mac and linux system and didn't notice major differences 19:10:13 so i would be interested in the approx sync time on both 19:14:51 @RavFX you misunderstand -- if disk was a bottleneck, I'd expect the network thread to saturate the memory buffer. surely the implementation is not so naive to make the network stack completely block IO on CPU or disk operations for each received block/tx 19:16:44 @seltsa 19:16:44 > so i would be interested in the approx sync time on both 19:16:44 syncing the last ~2 months of history took about 6 hours, syncing the entire history from scratch took about 5 hours 19:17:21 first one on an M1 macbook, second on a linux machine. the M1 hardware is better in pretty much every way 19:18:55 5 hours for a full sync sounds too quick 19:19:25 can you post the exact specs for the linux machine, or at least the exact ssd, 19:19:26 ? 19:19:31 You are not the only one who did notice big slowdown at the end of the sync. 19:19:31 What I was making high performance HDD sync test, the last ~1-2% took a LOT more time 19:19:37 s/What/When/ 19:20:26 With a LOT of cache miss 19:28:30 > can you post the exact specs for the linux machine, or at least the exact ssd, 19:28:30 ssd: Samsung 980 PRO M.2 NVMe 19:28:30 cpu: i7-11700K 19:35:18 > /opt/monero/p2pool...

Just learning proxychains, but I've been able to successfully start all apps with it except the Monero GUI. 20:55:14 Maybe because 20:55:14 > this program works only on dynamically linked programs 20:55:14 https://github.com/haad/proxychains 20:56:46 Monerod is usually statically linked, is the gui? 21:06:01 If you download the binaries, yes. 21:06:01 That way it just work on all configurations. 21:06:44 else you gonna need a download version available for all version of ubuntu, all version of fedora, all version of whatever.... 21:11:52 So dumbing things down a bit for me: the conclusion is I should give up attempting to run the GUI through proxychains? 21:12:48 eudaimon36[m]: Exact. 21:12:48 Or compile monero yourself 21:13:05 lol 21:13:13 I'll go with the first option! 21:13:24 that way it's not gonna be static 21:13:25 Thanks 21:13:26 ok! 21:16:21 eudaimon36[m]: monero-gui supports proxys when you go to settings -> interface 21:16:28 no need for an external program 21:20:51 selsta: Ok, this makes sense, I'll study that a bit. 21:21:24 Is it possible I damaged something with the GUI attempting to run it through proxychains? 21:22:07 now the wallet doesn't connect to the daemon 21:28:46 eudaimon36[m]: did you enable proxy? 21:28:58 no it's not possible to damage something 21:29:45 hmm, ok. I'll play around and see what I F-ed up 21:37:49 eudaimon36[m]: if you enable proxy in Settings -> Interface and don't set IP / port right it will not connect to a node 22:52:13 "eudaimon36: if you enable..." <- I've been reading everything I can find online about this Socks5 Proxy option within the Interface. Having done so, however, it's still a bit unclear. In particular, I'm wondering how this affects my currently used full node. And also, I assume I must first start my Tor service before running the wallet with this set. (I'm very new to all this, so I apologize if I haven't even formulated the 22:52:13 questions properly) 22:53:48 if you want to proxy traffic through Tor you have to be running Tor first 22:54:15 so if you are running a local node on the same machine then you want to proxy the node traffic and not the wallet traffic 22:54:32 because node <-> is local anyway 22:54:42 node <-> wallet 22:58:07 OK, this is very helpful, and largely how I understood things. 22:58:28 The one thing I didn't realize, but now make sense, is that the only thing that COULD be proxied is the full node--the wallet does not speak to anything but the node. 23:01:57 So if I weren't running a full node, I would have to point the wallet to a remote node that it would connect to via Socks5 proxy. (I.e., I'm still a bit unclear about the Socks5 proxy "remote node connection" reference) 23:24:41 selsta: ^ 23:25:16 eudaimon36[m]: correct 23:25:36 selsta: Thank you! 23:25:50 monerod has a --proxy option 23:28:18 selsta: But I needn't worry about adding any flags to monerod myself, right? The proxy option in the interface makes any necessary adjustments 23:28:50 no, monerod is a separate program 23:29:10 do you manage monerod manually or do you let monero-gui start and stop it? 23:29:37 I have done it both ways at different times 23:32:57 So besides having the interface set to proxy, I have to start the daemon with: ./monerod --tx-proxy "tx-proxy=tor,127.0.0.1:9050,16" 23:33:28 your creating a connection from monero gui to your seperate monerod instances over tor? 23:35:26 DanIsnotthemanBr: I think the idea is that the wallet communicates directly with my local full node, and then Tor obfuscates my node 23:35:31 Daemons is --proxy=127.0.0.1:9050 23:36:32 ofrnxmr[m]: So I have to start my daemon with this, AND then have the interface set to proxy? 23:36:56 I would think the interface would just start the daemon with that 23:37:07 seems redundant 23:37:20 oh so you want monerod to connect via tor 23:37:24 # TOR P2P anonymous-inbound=$ONION:18084,127.0.0.1:18084,32 proxy=127.0.0.1:9055 # Proxy through TOR tx-proxy=tor,127.0.0.1:9055,16,disable_noise # relay tx over tor pad-transactions=1 23:37:32 hidden service? 23:37:40 * ``` 23:37:40 # TOR P2P 23:37:40 anonymous-inbound=$ONION:18084,127.0.0.1:18084,32 proxy=127.0.0.1:9055 # Proxy through TOR tx-proxy=tor,127.0.0.1:9055,16,disable_noise # relay tx over tor pad-transactions=1 23:37:40 ``` 23:38:14 Tx-proxy and anon inbound are for relaying tx over onion 23:38:54 Blockchains sync, outgoing connections only, is --proxy 23:39:34 what if I want everything over onion? 23:40:07 not sure why anyone would even want to limit it to only some data 23:40:16 Cant sync blocks over onion 23:40:28 Because tor onion is unreliable 23:41:14 I see. This also explains why I couldn't connect through proxychains last night 23:41:35 Old instructions use torsocks 23:42:09 Not sure why youd try proxychains. Seems it doesnt work at all unless you build from sour3 23:42:11 ofrnxmr[m]: Just reread this: what does this mean, if you can't sync blockchain over Tor anyhow 23:45:56 You can sync the blockchain over tor 23:46:02 You cannot sync over onion 23:46:46 You cannot get incoming blockchain sync connections when using --proxy 23:47:11 You can make outgoing blockchain sync over --proxy 23:47:21 --proxy sends blockchain sync over exit nodes 23:47:28 hmmm, I thought Tor = The ONION Router 23:47:38 No 23:47:55 TOR = The Onion Router 23:48:06 lol 23:48:33 Not "the .onion hidden service-only network" 23:49:51 Visiting...
