Hello All,
I just installed a node on a windows 10 pro Mini Desktop. I am pretty sure I did everything correctly, but I can’t access the dashboard. I get connection refused. Any help in troubleshooting this would be amazing. Many thanks in advance.
how do you want to reach dashboard, write link?
I would like to be able to go to localhost using the storage node dashboard shortcut in my start menu
try disable firewall and try again, to understand that may be problem in firewall
look to services, does Storagenode service working?
All of the sorj services are running and I still can’t access the dashboard.
Check the logs in storagenode installation folder, if there is activity registered. Maybe the storagenode didn’t start. I remember that after a restart, my windows node didn’t restart and I had to set startup retries in Services, for storagenode service. 2 retries, 1 min apart.
I found the logs. To me they are quite confusing. It says there was a fatal error due to my email address. I’ve pasted in the last 20 lines from the logs. Perhaps you could understand them better than can.

it show that you did not entered correctly, it shold be External IP:port
change it in config
Could you please provide a little more elaboration about what i need to fix? This is very confusing to me. thank you very much and I really appreciate your help.
Go to node installation folder in Program Files, then find there config file.
In config you need to check this rows
the public address of the node, useful for nodes behind NAT
contact.external-address: 95.217.26.167:28967 are your external ip and port.
Also did you made port forward for this node in router?

I made the change you recommended, and it worked. Now I can see the dashboard webpage, but it says QUIC misconfigured. Does anybody know how to get this working? more thanks in advance.
I think it’s because you have a space right before your .org email.
Also, your ddns should not be your email, and also needs to have a port as well.
you need to make port forward on router same as tcp but UDP.
Also open it in windows firewall.
After restart the node.
I had to put that space in so i could post this in the comments. I was told that free accounts can only put two links, so the space is a non-issue. I think it’s an issue with port forwarding on my router. I have a spectrum router with a weird app interface and no traditional webpage for managing port forwarding.
Ok so which port is external and which is internal 4000 and 28967?
Use 28967 for both internal and external.
I believe for spectrum, you have to use an app with your account to open up ports.
Ok I was able to set up port forewarding properly but now I have a whole new issue. My Apartment lost power and the Modem and Router had reset. Now my logs are showing a new issue.
