Hi all, Main question: is multinode dashboard maintained, does it have any sense to keep try to launch it? Earlier, i had bug when some node was offline, dashboard page was blank, now even when all nodes are online it is blank(Tried to pull new image / rm old container / created new one, resulted in blank page always). Here is command im using to launch it: docker run -d --restart unless-stopped -p 15002:15002/tcp –mount type=bind,source=“/opt/multinode/”,destination=/app/config –name multinode storjlabs/multinode:latest Docker has access to opt folder, cause after container launch i see that it adds 2 files related to DB connection. Here is logs after container launch: ![image](https://storj-s3.bcdn.literatehosting.net/original/3X/b/6/b639bbaa9d7711a3070b4a9c3107cf6e96cada93.png) And here is when i try to open dashboard in browser: ![image](https://storj-s3.bcdn.literatehosting.net/original/3X/3/c/3c9338c79dbf0d851355a9e76e49ded29cdaf11f.jpeg) i believe this one is somehow related to cert (im using nginx proxy manager/lets encrypt cert to get access to dashboard), strange that browser tells that everything is ok with it. with http i got more interesting error: ![image](https://storj-s3.bcdn.literatehosting.net/original/3X/3/3/33d3b8d89207067b522da19e10167abfcf713310.jpeg) ---

i have multiple nodes in 4 locations with same ports (unique ports on specific location). ports should be unique on all of them, is this a problem? ---

No, if the IP is different, I have 2 nodes on port 14002 and two on port 14003, different machines, and the MND works The ports to the outside must be different, 28967, 28968… but if you are on a single IP you necessarily have to change them, but you have 4 IP’s…. ---

Ports per location are unique, like: ip1:28967, ip1:28968 ip2:28967, ip2:28968, ip3:28969 and so on. will try to re setup everything from scratch… wanted to avoid procedure of adding 18 nodes back inside it. ---

No need to setup everything from scratch. It could be a mentioned problem with MND itself, like when you registered the node with IP1:28967, then changed it to IP1:28968, and started a new one on a previously used IP1:28967. But MND would think that IP1:28967 is still belongs to the node1. In that case you need to re-add this node, i.e. remove from the MND and add it back but with correct IP and port. > [@Roberto](#): > > I have 2 nodes on port 14002 and two on port 14003, different machines, and the MND works MND uses the node’s port, not the Single Node Dashboard’s port. ---

oh dear… rlly, i did a swap for some nodes between locations A\<\>B. i will need to setup it from scratch cause i cant make any changes in nodes list, MND page is blank, cant do anything with it… ---

You actually can use the SQLite binary to modify its database, or take a binary, built by @ptdatta . With a database change: 1. Stop multinode 2. execute: ```auto docker exec -it --rm -v /opt/multinode/:/data sstc/sqlite3 sqlite3 master.db ``` it would open an SQLite prompt `sqlite>` and you may see what’s values you provided: ```auto select name, public_address from nodes; ``` then update them, e.g. ```auto update nodes set public_address="your_address:28968" from nodes where public_address="your_address:28967"; ``` and exit ```auto .exit ``` ---

It you want any features or find bugs in the multinode UI. Please add it [here](https://github.com/storj/storj/issues/7177) I will gradually work on them. Currently I am little occupied so I am inactive to the community. ---

Interesting, tried to add node on completely new multinode setup: In multinode container log i found next: ```auto 2024-10-31T20:05:06Z ERROR console:endpoint controllers/nodes.go:76 could not add node {"error": "nodes: rpc: tcp connector failed: rpc: tls peer certificate verification: tlsopts: peer ID did not match requested ID", "errorVerbose": "nodes: rpc: tcp connector failed: rpc: tls peer certificate verification: tlsopts: peer ID did not match requested ID\n\tstorj.io/common/rpc.HybridConnector.DialContext.func1:190"} storj.io/storj/multinode/console/controllers.(*Nodes).Add /go/src/storj.io/storj/multinode/console/controllers/nodes.go:76 net/http.HandlerFunc.ServeHTTP /usr/local/go/src/net/http/server.go:2171 github.com/gorilla/mux.(*Router).ServeHTTP /go/pkg/mod/github.com/gorilla/mux@v1.8.0/mux.go:210 net/http.serverHandler.ServeHTTP /usr/local/go/src/net/http/server.go:3142 net/http.(*conn).serve /usr/local/go/src/net/http/server.go:2044 ``` Node online, dashboard accessible, and im pretty sure that everything is ok with it. In same time second node from this machine was successfully added. node 1 port = 28967(default) node 2 port = 28968 Checked configs files for both nodes and this param same: ```auto # the public address of the node, useful for nodes behind NAT contact.external-address: "" ``` Nodes in docker looks like: ![image](https://storj-s3.bcdn.literatehosting.net/optimized/3X/3/e/3eba98293e9d297710d83d3b5cf48c6789884fe3_2_690x19.png) ---

This may mean, that you still have an old node in the database, which was with a different identity, but with the same external address and port as a new one. ---

100% new setup. so i deleted old container, and created new one and pointed to new folder: ```auto docker run -d --restart unless-stopped \ -p 15002:15002/tcp \ --mount type=bind,source="/opt/multinode/",destination=/app/config \ --name multinode storjlabs/multinode:latest ``` and new one: ```auto docker run -d --restart unless-stopped \ -p 15002:15002/tcp \ --mount type=bind,source="/opt/multinode1/",destination=/app/config \ --name multinode storjlabs/multinode:latest ``` ---

In that case the provided NodeID and the external address and port doesn’t match. I.e. you copied NodeID from the one node, but provided either API key or external address and port from another one. By the way, if your multinode dashboard resides in the same LAN, you may use the local IP instead of external one. Just make sure that you specified a correct port, NodeID and API key. I would recommend to use ```auto docker exec -it storagenode /app/bin/storagenode info --config-dir config --identity-dir identity ``` and ```auto docker ps storagenode ``` to see the external port (it would be on the left side of the port mapping).
