"Underlying Transport Error"

[BlackDragonRoarz]

I cloned the git repo onto a local machine. Followed the documentation instructions, but accidentally ran nodeos without the plugins, and realized my mistake so i shut the terminal session by simply closing the terminal window in Mac. When i went to go and try again, i tried adding the plugin options to nodeos like the documentation said, and it told me that some corruption flag was set. Not knowing what to do, i started to run nodeos with the delete-blocks flag, replay, hard-replay, etc. Nothing would work and i simply just got this message in return:

Message:

Finally i gave up on that repo, and just checked out a fresh clone in a new repo, and followed the instructions verbatum this time, and I still got the "Underlying Transport Error" above.

Same error occured When I set up eosio@dawn4.2

[lingyiliu016]

The error details are as follows:

The reason of the error occured is that the command `make test` is running and not finished ,and I run `./nodeos -e -p eosio --plugin eosio::chain_api_plugin --plugin eosio::history_api_plugin` at same time. when I kill the `make test` , I run `./nodeos -e -p eosio --plugin eosio::chain_api_plugin --plugin eosio::history_api_plugin` again, the error disappear!

Transport error normally means the port is already taken.

@heifner I've followed the instructions in the documentation (using Docker) and also get this error. Are you not going to help your developer community resolve issues besides just stating the cause of the issue?

For anyone experiencing the same problem, if you used the Docker startup command from the documentation, it would have already started nodeos for you:

sudo docker run --rm --name eosio -d -p 8888:8888 -p 9876:9876 -v /tmp/work:/work -v /tmp/eosio:/mnt/dev/data eosio/eos-dev /bin/bash -c "nodeos -e -p eosio --plugin eosio::wallet_api_plugin --plugin eosio::wallet_plugin --plugin eosio::producer_plugin --plugin eosio::history_plugin --plugin eosio::chain_api_plugin --plugin eosio::history_api_plugin --plugin eosio::http_plugin -d /mnt/dev/data --http-server-address=0.0.0.0:8888 --access-control-allow-origin=* --contracts-console"

Which means you don't have to start it again.
