Steem miners, please help ! "no witness configured" & "no miners configured" error

[fishborne]

Hi,

I followed @pfunk instructions from here.

At this point:
I've got:

1712523ms th_a witness.cpp:186 plugin_startup ] No witnesses configured! Please add witness names and private keys to configuration.

1712523ms th_a witness.cpp:194 plugin_startup ] No miners configured! Please add miner names and private keys to configuration.

Why ? I edited the miners and witnesses fields accordingly.
It's just a warning ? I didn't catch it.

Anyway, the sync started:

2162158ms th_a application.cpp:416 handle_block ] Syncing Blockchain --- Got block: #730000 time: 2016-04-19T11:54:51

2179997ms th_a application.cpp:416 handle_block ] Syncing Blockchain --- Got block: #740000 time: 2016-04-19T20:33:18

Please advise.

Thank you.

By the way, do we have a miner's thread here ?

Thanks @throwawayaccount! Will be free to have a look at those links in a couple of days. ✌💛

Ok, next impass.....

Started witness node on a chain with 0 blocks.

Researching....

[novacadian]

Would you have an example config.ini file by chance, @throwawayaccount? My thought is that perhaps the 2 year old example used by me had something missing, which a more up to date version may have?
