private-net mode not working under linux?

[chiarelli]

Node type: geth
OS: linux
Network type: NULL
Mist version: 0.7.4

O Modo PRIVATE-NET não está funcional em distros linux?
Apenas na compilação destinada para Windows consegui acessar essa funcionalidade, ou seja, inicio o "geth" com as configurações personalizadas e ao iniciar o mist ele roda no modo PRIVATE-NET. Ao fazer o mesmo procedimento na distro linux GNU-Ubuntu ocorre um erro.

from google-translator:

Die PRIVATE-NET-Modus ist in Linux-Distributionen nicht funktionsfähig ?
Nur bei der Erstellung für Windows könnte diese Funktionalität zugreifen, dh den Anfang "Geth" mit benutzerdefinierten Einstellungen und starten Sie den Nebel läuft es in PRIVATE-NET-Modus. Dadurch tritt das gleiche Verfahren in Linux-Distribution Ubuntu GNU-ein Fehler auf.

To use private-nets on any OS you have to externally start geth with the appropiate flags --networkid, etc. and connect Mist/Ethereum-Wallet after that to it.

Hello luclu,

I used the same configuration as the geth in both distros:

geth --identity "MyNodeName" --genesis ~/CustomGensis.json --rpc --rpcport "8000" --rpccorsdomain "*" --datadir "/home/raphael/ethereum-private_network" --ipcapi "admin,db,eth,debug,miner,net,shh,txpool,personal,web3" --rpcapi "db,eth,net,web3" --autodag --networkid 1900 --nat "any" console

However, only in the compilation for windows 7 PRIVATE-NET mode is functional, while in GNU-Ubuntu the mist returns an exception.

What kind of exception do you encounter?

The following screenshot:

However I realize the same procedure and settings in Windows 7 and mist starts normally.

[luclu]

The last line states that the port 30303 is already used. Make sure there is no other instance of geth running - use pgrep geth / pkill geth.

[chiarelli]

There is no other instance of running geth, I had already seen it before, but the build for Windows 7 this problem does not occur.

[luclu]

Could you try to append geth with the --ipcpath-flag parsing the default location of the ipc-socket.

[chiarelli]

luclu, I did what you asked adding --ippath but there was the same problem.

[luclu]

What happens when you only start Mist with default settings?

[chiarelli]

mist starts normally.

Can you try to strip down your geth flags or build them up with --networkid 2 (morden testnet) - to isolate the issue?

[chiarelli]

Do you believe that this could be a bug in the Linux build?

For now I can only run PRIVATE-NET mode in windows ...

I hope the developer solve this problem in the next update for linux distros.

[luclu]

I don't really thing so, but it could be...

If you want to spare some time helping try to strip down your command-flags one by one - to isolate the issue.

Can you try to strip down your geth flags or build them up with --networkid 2 (morden testnet) - to isolate the issue?

I am currently experiencing the same issue. I think the wallet might not be able to find the geth.ipc file, possibly expecting it somewhere else. If it then starts its own geth instance, this will fail due to the port being in use.

@armed10 this might be related to #1165.
