Hello @bsbits,

I can assume from logs provided that you run on Ubuntu, right ?
Could you provide more information about how you install it in the first place ?

from insight-ui.

Correct, and this is the process I used to install it.
First, I created an aws instance.

sudo apt-get update -y
sudo apt-get upgrade

curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.33.2/install.sh | bash
export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && . "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" # This loads nvm

nvm install v4

apt-get install libzmq3-dev build-essential

npm install -g bitcore-node-dash
bitcore-node-dash create mynode
cd mynode
bitcore-node-dash install insight-api-dash
bitcore-node-dash install insight-ui-dash
bitcore-node-dash start

from insight-ui.

Oh, and I also had to install python.

sudo apt-get install python

without it, I can not run npm install -g bitcore-node-dash without errors

from insight-ui.

Did you remember or have any log of the error regarding Python ?

When you did the creation of the mynode, are you sure that the folder mynode exist ? (as you diverted here a little from the doc).

Edit : Trying to reproduce in my end to lookup why it seeks on this folder.

from insight-ui.

Python is required for [email protected]

So I had to install python and node-gyp

The folder mynode exists, I had to cd there to install the api and ui.

The doc here is not complete, Insight require node js to run.

from insight-ui.

Yeah, actually the doc is here : https://github.com/dashpay/bitcore-node-dash
As this place is for Insight-ui (which is only an Angular Plugin allowing to explore the Blockchain).

But nevertheless, there is still an issue. During the time I move forward on my end, could you perform a search for the file dashd

from insight-ui.

/home/ubuntu/.bitcore/data/dashcore-0.12.1/bin/dashd
/home/ubuntu/.bitcore/data/dashd

from insight-ui.

Can I propose you to follow this : https://gist.github.com/Alex-Werner/0be9bb4757b013043eeb9be5d93d9d39

Hello @afzydev
I suggest you to follow this, an easier way to install it : https://gist.github.com/Alex-Werner/6de16b72a9070d945e3e74691d318f24
Also, here you have a permission issue which is not related to the package but with user rights.

No need to spam at 3 places ;)
Also, the repo is now at github.com/dashevo
