Solved - it not an Dash error, just a network wrong configuration
Hi,

I have 2 MN.
I use Updating+to+12.1+-+Masternodes

For my 1st MN all gone well.

For the 2nd one have this mesage :
Not capable masternode: Could not connect to X.X.X.X:9999

Already try :

- Delete all .dat (not wallet) on MN and on cold wallet
- Restart with -reindex
- send masternode start-alias MYALIAS
- wait
- send masternode start-alias MYALIAS
- wait 1h
- ....

And do it it again ...

dash.conf

rpcuser=YYYYYYYYY
rpcpassword=ZZZZZZZ

there were some changes in the networking. I had a similar problem with a special setup. I redirect all server outbound traffic to my ip (Port 9999) to localhost:9999.

Try the following:
Code: 
sudo iptables -t nat -I OUTPUT -d YOURIP -p tcp --dport 9999 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 9999

Change YOURIP to your public IPV4-IP. After that, your dashd should be able to connect to your IP.
 
Sentinel passed tests ok?

EDIT: Special characters in rpcuser anr/or rpcpassword have also caused issues, alphanumeric only.

@SirHikmat probably have the solution but anyway - is your masternode really reachable from the outside? Try "masternode connect yourip:9999", should say "successfully connected".
Click to expand...
yes, mine is reachable from the outside. The masternode is on dashninja and in the masternode list, listed as "Enabled".

I'll post more details, as soon as I understand my problem (maybe some problems with my /etc/hosts or my ipconfig)

./dash-cli masternode connect X.X.X.X:9999
error code: -32603
error message:
Couldn't connect to masternode X.X.X.X:9999

looks like network conf problem.

sudo ufw status
État : actif

Vers Action De
---- ------ --
22/tcp LIMIT Anywhere
9999/tcp ALLOW Anywhere
22/tcp (v6) LIMIT Anywhere (v6)
9999/tcp (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6)



I try
sudo iptables -t nat -I OUTPUT -d YOURIP -p tcp --dport 9999 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 9999

nothing change for me :)

Its looks like network issu. but i realy dont know where it is at this time.

Thx for your help, its not a dash issu, just my virtual machine network issu.

Hi guys,

I have the same problem as above. I'm running Dash Core 0.12.1.5 and my masternode's status is ""Not capable masternode: Masternode in NEW_START_REQUIRED state"

When I test it with the "./dash-cli masternode connect X.X.X.X:9999" command, it can't connect to the daemon if I try it locally, but it works fine when I run the command from another machine.

I use ufw and it worked fine before. Could you help me fix the problem?

You need to start masternode from local wallet again i.e. "masternode start-alias your_MN_alias_here".
