@lclc_ said in [[Guide] Setup Feathercoin Electrum-X Server Centos 7]

I guess it’s from @peschu ? :)

Yes! :) I used the naming convention of feathercoin servers. the datacenter is located in the us…looks a bit more international ;-)

Hi,

after I created my electrum server on my azure vm I wanted to install the electrum wallet on ubuntu 16.04

I used the steps written here:
https://github.com/Feathercoin-Foundation/electrum-ftc

But it does not seem work without “sudo”. I tried several ways including the use of virtualenv etc. I always end up with errors about permissions.

Installation using “sudo” just works fine. And does not seem to be a problem from a security perspective compared to an install without using sudo!? Please tell me if I’m wrong. The wallets are located in “~/.local/share/electrum-ftc/wallets” & readonly for the owner. So I think this is fine if you are the only one with sudo/root access to this machine.

One thing I recognized: If you create a QR Code for your seed and save it as png it is stored readable to everyone… This file should be deleted anyway, but if stored it should use permissions like 400 or 600 (only read-/writeable by owner)!?

If someone knows a way to install the wallet without user right elevation I would really like to hear/see it.

thank you for your replies :-)

I have the node and electrumx server up & running …
But I can’t reply in the sticky thread!?

address for the server is:
electrumx-us-1.realbotlife.com

Hi,

I’m Peter …but you can call me peschu…
FTC is the first project I want to participate actively.

I’m located in Zurich and speak german, english (and hopefully portugues in the near future). :)

I think I need to work through the topics here first before I can offer any help. I’m not a developer but I do some scripting sometimes and working since 20 years with it stuff (damn…aehm…I started early =) ) . Ubuntu Linux is my favorite/main os. At the moment I work my way into programming with golang(just as hobby). My day job is working with data and visual analytics as a consultant.

My starting point will be to setup a electrumX server on my azure machine in regard to the post from lucas…
https://forum.feathercoin.com/topic/9626/guide-setup-an-electrumx-feathercoin-server

I could imagine to create guides & things to improve the user experience and to develop the network, but I’m really open to anything which needs to be done.

Would be nice if someone updates the sticky topic “[FAQ] Is there any way I can help forward the Feathercoin project?” …

I’m really looking forward to help the project and to connect with all supporters. :-) Contact me here or via Telegram @peschu
