Installing Linux
For ease, this guide is based on ubuntu. To get started download and install your favorite flavor, xubuntu is easy to use.
**If you dont have an extra machine, use virtualization to run linux on your windows PC. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5MhydijWmc)**
#### you will need
* USB drive for install media
* 4GB+ RAM recommended (lower can work too)
* 10GB+ Harddrive (~2GB for Linux, ~4GB for wownero)
If you need help installing, check this (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-6jzpvGTCKI)
Installing Wownerod
#### Downloading Wownerod
Go to wownero.org and download the latest "Command Line" wallet for Linux 64-bit. Wait for the download to complete.
You can verify the archive by checking the sha256sum provided.
Extract the wownerod to /home/username/Downloads. Wait for the extraction to complete.
Navigate to the folder that contains wownerod and open a terminal inside this folder.
then copy the extracted contents to /usr/local/bin.
`sudo cp wownero* /usr/local/bin/.`
you can test that its installed correctly with this command (it should return yes)
`(ls /usr/local/bin/wownerod && echo yes) || echo no`
#### Lets add our config file
Open an editor with
`sudo nano /etc/wownerod.conf`
Copy and Paste the following into /etc/wownerod.conf
check-updates=disabled
confirm-external-bind=1
data-dir=/var/lib/wownero
log-file=/var/log/wownero/wownerod.log
log-level=0
no-igd=1
p2p-bind-port=34567
p2p-use-ipv6=1
public-node=1
restricted-rpc=1
rpc-bind-ip=0.0.0.0
rpc-bind-port=34568
##### use CTRL+X to save/exit
#### Install the wownero service
Now lets get the wownero service setup
Open an editor with
`sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/wownerod.service`
Copy and Paste the following into /etc/systemd/system/wownerod.service
[Unit]
Description=Wownero Full Node
After=network-online.target
Wants=network-online.target
[Service]
User=wownero
Group=wownero
Environment="MONERO_RANDOMX_UMASK=1"
StateDirectory=wownero
LogsDirectory=wownero
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/wownerod --config-file /etc/wownerod.conf --non-interactive
Restart=always
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
##### Setup Directories and User
sudo addgroup --system wownero
sudo adduser --system wownero --home /var/lib/wownero
sudo mkdir /var/log/wownero
sudo chown wownero:wownero /var/log/wownero
##### CTRL+X to save/exit
Now lets load the service file into systemd
Reload the service files to include wownerod
`sudo systemctl daemon-reload`
To enable wownerod on every reboot
`sudo systemctl enable wownerod.service`
Start wownerod service
`sudo systemctl start wownerod.service`
To check the status of wownerod
`sudo systemctl status wownerod.service`
Wownerod should be up and syncing!
Setting up Tor/i2p
install tor and i2p
`sudo apt install i2pd tor`
#### Create Tor hidden service
creating a hidden service is easy, just add a couple lines to the torrc config file
open the editor with
`sudo nano /etc/tor/torrc`
add the following lines at the bottom
HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/wownero/
HiddenServicePort 34568 127.0.0.1:34568
HiddenServicePort 34566 127.0.0.1:34566
##### CTRL+X to save/exit
restart tor
`sudo /etc/init.d/tor restart`
you can find out your Onion hostname by running
`sudo cat /var/lib/tor/wownero/hostname`
you will see output that looks like (same onion for RPC and P2P, use for P2P url below)
> lrux6na6p47ulqf2owt3wknfiwwbz7iksio5bz3ebdvou47lmfjdmoid.onion
this is your onion! you can now use wowlet or wownero-wallet-cli to access wownerod over Tor
#### Create i2p http tunnel (hidden service)
Creating an i2p service is similar to tor
open the editor with
`sudo nano /etc/i2pd/tunnels.conf`
add the following lines at the bottom of the file
```
[wownero-rpc]
type = http
host = 127.0.0.1
port = 34568
keys = wownero-rpc.dat
[wownero-p2p]
type = server
host = 127.0.0.1
port = 34565
keys = wownero-p2p.dat
```
##### CTRL+X to save/exit
restart i2pd
`sudo /etc/init.d/i2pd restart`
you can find out your p2p b32.i2p hostname by running curl
`curl http://127.0.0.1:7070/?page=i2p_tunnels 2>&1 | grep -Eo "[a-zA-Z0-9./?=_%:-]*" | grep "34565"`
you will see output that looks like (add this to wownerod.conf below)
> mshhr3stejy6dyhdjclaamezae2c75av6eazhru3s3hoccimya5a.b32.i2p:34565
you can find out your rpc b32.i2p hostname by running curl
`curl http://127.0.0.1:7070/?page=i2p_tunnels 2>&1 | grep -Eo "[a-zA-Z0-9./?=_%:-]*" | grep "34568"`
you will see output that looks like (use this with a client wallet)
> lvy4crit5gcodniovffckwcwcto3gjgr3enwu4tsrki4x2ocq6ra.b32.i2p:34568
you can now use this wownero-wallet-cli to access wownerod over i2p
## Add incoming p2p to wownerod.conf
In order to let other servers on the Tor and i2p network communicate with your server on p2p you have to add a few lines to the bottom of your wownerod.conf
open your editor
`sudo nano /etc/wownerod.conf`
add the following to the bottom, replace YOUR_I2P_ADDRESS and YOUR_ONION_ADDRESS with the p2p addresses you recieved above
tx-proxy=tor,127.0.0.1:9050,23
tx-proxy=i2p,127.0.0.1:4447,23
anonymous-inbound=YOUR_I2P_ADDRESS:34565,127.0.0.1:34565,64
anonymous-inbound=YOUR_ONION_ADDRESS:34566,127.0.0.1:34566,64
restart wownero
`sudo systemctl restart wownerod.service`
## How to use the services
* RPC - clients(use with wowlet, wownero-wallet-cli) wallets connect to wownerod
* P2P - wownerod talks to other wownerod
* RPC port - 34568 (use with wowlet, wownero-wallet-cli)
* P2P port - 34567 (use with wownerod)
* Tor-RPC port - 34568 (use with wowlet, wownero-wallet-cli)
* i2p-RPC port - 34568 (use with wowlet, wownero-wallet-cli)
* Tor-P2P port - 34566 (use with wownerod)
* i2p-P2P port - 34565 (use with wownerod)
on Tor only one hiddenservice url is needed as it can handle multiple ports per service. see this in the torrc created, multiple ports under one hiddenservicedir(one key) directory. i2p works differently where it needs a separate tunnel for every port served. see in the i2p tunnels.conf that we set a service for port 34565 and 34568 each with a separate key file
with anonymous-inbound and tx-proxy it sets wownerod to prefer relaying transactions over Tor-p2p and i2p-p2p. you can use add-exclusive-node= in the wownerod in order to sync over i2p-p2p or Tor-p2p
post all three urls. p2p urls are for system admins who want to add as a peer to wownerod. rpc urls are for clients who need to use the wallet
## Share your nodes!
Add your nodes to https://monero.fail/?crypto=wownero and post them here, thanks for helping the network!
## Setup your first node and thats not enough?
Use the ansible playbooks which automate these steps for multiple nodes! (https://git.wownero.com/dsc/ansible-remote-node/)
## Big thanks to @wow4reedom for polishing this up!! :fire::pineapple:

Quote from: "qvqc, post:1, topic:588"You can verify the archive by checking the sha256sum provided.
For Linux newbies (myself included), how do I perform a checksum check in Ubuntu?
In a terminal, run `sha256sum path/to/file`. Under most desktop environments, you can drag a file into the terminal window to insert its path.

I can't seem to start the wownero service. Here is the "Failed" message I get after running the above command:

But here's what's strange, if I start the node manually from the terminal:
`./wownerod`
followed by
`status`
the Node starts, syncs and I get the following:
`Height: 335709/335709 (100.0%) on mainnet, not mining, net hash 45.40 MH/s, v19, 11(out)+0(in) connections, uptime 0d 0h 0m 23s`
I'm a newbie to Linux and I setup a new machine running Ubuntu LTS 20.04.2 and I've followed this guide line-by-line.
I'm unsure if there is a step missing in the guide, but I can's seem to make sense of the above error hence my machine won't start my full node.
Any thoughts?
thanks for catching,
try this:
sudo addgroup --system wownero
sudo adduser --system wownero --home /var/lib/wownero
sudo mkdir /var/log/wownero
sudo chown wownero:wownero /var/log/wownero
sudo systemctl start wownerod
Thanks @qvqc, that fixed it!

The /wownero directory under /lib/tor/ does not exist.
Also, please note that when I carried out the step below:
Quote from: "qvqc, post:1, topic:588"open the editor with
`sudo nano /etc/torrc`
It creates an empty file, then pasted in the 3 lines and saved the file, hence the file /etc/torrc did not exist in my /etc/ directory.
However, after a little bit of digging around using the File Manager, I noticed there is a torrc file located under /etc/tor/ , should this be the file that needs the 3 lines added at the end?
yes, edit that torrc file. You should change the "HiddenServiceDir" location to `/etc/tor/wownero`, restart, and then do: `sudo cat /etc/tor/wownero/hostname`
Thanks for all your help thus far @wowario and @qvqc. Unfortunately, I'm still having an issue with starting up my full node.
My node seems doesn't seem to startup via the systemctl. I can start it manually from the /usr/local/bin/ directory. It runs and syncs, but when I check the status I get the following error:

Thanks in advance.
try posting the log
get the last hundred lines with:

no stress, u are close to having it all online. thanks for testing

nice find..
this:

add
```

this wont solve wownerod not starting, post the log tail for that
Hi @qvqc, thanks for the tip on how to view the log file.
After spending some time looking through it, it seems to be in a loop (meaning the same lines repeat over and over).
I couldn't attached a Text file, so here's the copy-n-paste from the wownerod.log file output of a repeating section of the log...

This is all jiberish to me (I'm a linux newbie) so I hope someone can make sense of it and let me know what I need to do to fix the issue so I can get my Wownero Full Node with Tor/i2p up and running. Thanks in advance.
sounds like config issue, can u post wownerd.conf here?

a few fixes to make, had old configs and screwed things up a little bit. thanks for helping me polish this :sweat_smile:
edit i2p config
`sudo nano /etc/i2pd/tunnels.conf`
make the config look like this
```
[wownero-rpc]
type = http
host = 127.0.0.1
port = 34568
keys = wownero-rpc.dat
[wownero-p2p]
type = server
host = 127.0.0.1
port = 34565
keys = wownero-p2p.dat
```
restart i2p
`/etc/init.d/i2pd restart`
check here for p2p url ending in 34565 (http://127.0.0.1:7070/?page=i2p_tunnels) or install curl
`sudo apt install curl`
grab the p2p url
`curl http://127.0.0.1:7070/?page=i2p_tunnels 2>&1 | grep -Eo "[a-zA-Z0-9./?=_%:-]*" | grep "34565"`
edit wownerod config
`sudo nano /etc/wownerod.conf`
take the i2p p2p url received with curl and replace the current b32.i2p in wownerod.conf
`anonymous-inbound=UPDATETHISLINE:34565,127.0.0.1:34565,64`
and add these two lines to wownerod.conf:
```
tx-proxy=tor,127.0.0.1:9050,23
tx-proxy=i2p,127.0.0.1:4447,23
```
##### CTRL+X to save/exit
`sudo systemctl restart wownerod.service`
if wownerod fails again try editing wownerod.conf (sudo nano /etc/wownerod.conf) and setting debug from 0 to 1. restart wownerod (sudo systemctl restart wownerod.service) and paste the log (tail -n 100 /var/log/wownero/wownerod.log)
Quote from: "qvqc, post:20, topic:588"anonymous-inbound=UPDATETHISLINE:34565,127.0.0.1:34565,64
Hey @qvqc, thanks for the clear instructions on what I need to update.
For the change requested above to the wownerod.conf , I want to confirm something as I have 2 lines starting with: anonymous-inbound=...
The 1st string value containing .b32.i20:34565... and,
The 2nd string value containing .onion:34566...
You only need me to update the 1st line and replace it with the new i2p p2p url received with curl.
Do I leave the 2nd string intact with no changes needed?
yes, you should have two anonymous-inbound= lines.
it should look similar to
```
anonymous-inbound=lvy4crit5gcodniovffckwcwcto3gjgr3enwu4tsrki4x2ocq6ra.b32.i2p:34565,127.0.0.1:34565,64

replace i2p url with the new p2p i2p url that you grabbed with curl, the line with onion is unchanged
Hey @qvqc I've successfully launched my Full Node with Tor/i2p :smile:
Thanks again for putting together this Step-by-Step guide.
Here's my Onion address:
http://vq5bn3dhzorkpc6g6xi4vruylpdvfw6nrdf7ylyxudunsa4rzm4hduid.onion:34568
I've added it to - https://monero.fail/?crypto=wownero
ahhyee :metal:
can also run this command (its looking for 34568 instead of 34565)
`curl http://127.0.0.1:7070/?page=i2p_tunnels 2>&1 | grep -Eo "[a-zA-Z0-9./?=_%:-]*" | grep "34568"`
and get the i2p RPC url
u cant post i2p addresses on monero.fail but please share i2p p2p url and i2p rpc url here so we improve this network :+1:

Hey @qvqc, After going over your Step-by-Step guide several times I've noticed there are 3 different addressed that are generated.
Can you please demystify for us newbies (like myself) what is the significance of the following addresses with the different port numbers...
**A) Address ending with .onion** - it looks something like:
`vq5bn3dhzorkpc6g6xi4vruylpdvfw6nrdf7ylyxudunsa4rzm4hduid.onion`
It is used in the wownerod.conf file with port 34566 tacked on the end.
**B) Address ending with port number 34565** - looks something like:
`oscqc6nia6ledut7ufpffej2kkjeuoonibwxudajg3su2w7p32xa.b32.i2p:34565`
**C) Address ending with port number 34568** - looks something like:
`axrmv5ucdghi5b4fklx4kjta2c3cwygxs6ctme4tunbvmpmbnm7q.b32.i2p:34568`
**QUESTIONS**
- 1) Which of these addresses should I add to my Custom Node list in Wowlet wallet?
- 2) In what situations should I use Address A vs Address B vs Address C?
- 3) Which of the above 3 addresses did you want us to post to this thread?
- 4) In the Wownero world, what do the different acronyms mean i2p p2p and i2p rpc and why are they both needed?
Thanks.
* RPC - clients(use with wowlet, wownero-wallet-cli) wallets connect to wownerod
* P2P - wownerod talks to other wownerod
* RPC port - 34568 (use with wowlet, wownero-wallet-cli)
* P2P port - 34567 (use with wownerod)
* Tor-RPC port - 34568 (use with wowlet, wownero-wallet-cli)
* i2p-RPC port - 34568 (use with wowlet, wownero-wallet-cli)
* Tor-P2P port - 34566 (use with wownerod)
* i2p-P2P port - 34565 (use with wownerod)
on Tor only one hiddenservice url is needed as it can handle multiple ports per service. see this in the torrc created, multiple ports under one hiddenservicedir(one key) directory. i2p works differently where it needs a separate tunnel for every port served. see in the i2p tunnels.conf that we set a service for port 34565 and 34568 each with a separate key file
with anonymous-inbound and tx-proxy it sets wownerod to prefer relaying transactions over Tor-p2p and i2p-p2p. you can use add-exclusive-node= in the wownerod in order to sync over i2p-p2p or Tor-p2p.
post all three urls. p2p urls are for system admins who want to add as a peer to wownerod. rpc urls are for clients who need to use the wallet
and.... I have exactly the same problem, but these steps did NOT fix it
It is currently syncing, but like Wow4freedom, I ran wownerod from the cli in the /var/lib/wownero folder i.e. ./wownerod....
Thanks for all your help @qvqc and @wowario.
I believe I've resolved the errors and I have check that both the Wownerod and Tor services running.
As request here are my 3 URLs:
`http://vq5bn3dhzorkpc6g6xi4vruylpdvfw6nrdf7ylyxudunsa4rzm4hduid.onion:34566`
`http://oscqc6nia6ledut7ufpffej2kkjeuoonibwxudajg3su2w7p32xa.b32.i2p:34565`
`http://axrmv5ucdghi5b4fklx4kjta2c3cwygxs6ctme4tunbvmpmbnm7q.b32.i2p:34568`
Can someone please confirm that these URLs are in the correctly named? Thanks

set the log level to 1 from 0
```
sudo nano /etc/wownerod.conf
```
edit the line that says
```
log-level=0
```
to
```
log-level=1
```
**ctrl+x to exit/save**
post the log when running wownerod service
```
sudo systemctl start wownerod.service
tail -n 100 /var/log/wownero/wownerod.log
```
post a copy of your wownerod.conf
```
cat /etc/wownerod.conf

Hey @qvqc / @wowario (or anyone else...),
I'm not sure if I'm using the wrong address in Wowlet, but no data is being transferred and hence the wallet is not syncing with my full node (see screenshot below)
(http://forum.wownero.com/custom_avatar/26a38e2f841f24d29ae609863b14bbf0ada1259c.png)
Any troubleshooting tips?
use cli wallet with i2pd on same machine, you proxy the wallet through i2p
`./wownero-wallet-cli --proxy 127.0.0.1:4447 --daemon-address axrmv5ucdghi5b4fklx4kjta2c3cwygxs6ctme4tunbvmpmbnm7q.b32.i2p:34568`
keep in mind i2p is smaller network than Tor and it takes some time for your node to become well routed. docs say connections can be slow/spotty up to a week after leaving the node up 24/7
Hey @qvqc , QQ now that I've got a Full Node running as a service, what command do I type in the Terminal to check to if my node is still synchronized with the blockchain?
How can I do this on Manjaro, an Arch distro? I am running wownero-x86_64-linux-gnu-2bdd70d65 which is located at /home/manjaro/Downloads/
I want it through Tor. I am mining and wish to connect my node to my wallet.
Assuming it's on the same machine, try `wownerod status`, or `curl http://localhost:34568/get_info`. Compare the reported height against other nodes, e.g. block explorers.
From another machine, you can use the curl command above, replacing `localhost:34568` with your node's RPC address:port combination. It also works with remote nodes! (But if it's a Tor or I2P address, you'll need to tell curl to use the right proxy.)
Note that current blockchain height is one more than the latest block's height.
***Brief disclaimer***: I haven't personally tested these commands. I might have missed something obvious. Your system might not work exactly the way I imagined it. And be very careful whenever you have `sudo` and `rm -rf` together!
## Setup steps
It's mostly the same as Ubuntu in the OP, as you're still dealing with `systemd`. There are a couple of Debian-isms that you'll need to change, though:
### Setup Directories and User
Instead of:
sudo addgroup --system wownero
sudo adduser --system wownero --home /var/lib/wownero
Do:
sudo groupadd --system wownero
sudo useradd --system --gid wownero --shell /usr/bin/nologin --home-dir /var/lib/wownero --create-home
### Setting up Tor/i2p
Instead of:
sudo apt install i2pd tor
Do:
sudo pacman -S tor i2pd
You might want to refer to the Arch wiki: Tor](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Tor), [I2P (https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/I2P).
## Optional: Moving your blockchain across
Since it sounds like you've been running `wownerod` under your user ID, you can copy or move the blockchain across instead of having to wait for it to sync again from scratch. (If I got it wrong, and you *don't* have the blockchain downloaded already, skip this section.)
Do this *after* creating the user and directories, but *before* you start `wownerod.service`. *Make sure* that there are no running instances of `wownerod`, either as your user or as a service.
ps auwx | grep wownero
Make sure this shows nothing running, except maybe grep itself.
sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/wownero/.wownero/
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/wownero/.wownero/lmdb # delete DB if it already exists
sudo cp -a ~/.wownero/lmdb /var/lib/wownero/.wownero/
sudo chown -R wownero:wownero /var/lib/wownero/.wownero
Substitute `mv` for `cp -a` if you'd prefer to move the blockchain instead of copying it.
Now you can start `wownerod.service` and continue from there.

@qvqc, I followed these instructions on Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS Server edition and can't get i2pd to work, with the following errors:

Can't find any useful references online regarding "error - RouterInfo: Can't open file". Any idea how to resolve this issue?
I set up a remote node on a VPS and made it accessible through Tor.
Checking the status page works and connecting to the node is possible.
On the other hand, I get this whenever I connect to it in WOWlet:
(http://forum.wownero.com/custom_avatar/45c0bd649acf0deab0632d4390fdec1585a5af5e.png)
As you can see, the wallet isn't syncing :frowning:
Any clue how to fix this?
(I'm running Debian 11 for the server, if that makes any difference)
Thanks!

I was going crazy because I was trying to enter the address inside wowlet and it didn't work...
Then someone told me that on wowlet tor addresses currently don't work (unless you use wowlet with tails)
So I add my own...
