The following is a quick installation guide. Please see HOWTO.md for more
detailed information on how to configure your server.
TLDR:
$ sudo ./configure
$ sudo python ./setup.py install
$ electrum-server-cesc start
$ electrum-server-cesc stop
Note: If you want to run the server without installing it on your
system, just run 'run_electrum_server_cesc"
1. Install and run cryptoescudod.
----------------------------
You will need to run cryptoescudod with the config option txindex=1. If you
have not previously done so, you may need to reindex the cryptoescudod
blockchain
Note: you cannot use a pruning cryptoescudod. A full cryptoescudo node is
required in order to know for each address if it has been
used. Pruning occurs only at the level of the Electrum database.
2. Run the 'configure' script
---------------------------
You need to run the script as root:
$ sudo ./configure
It will:
* create the configuration file in /etc/electrum-cesc.conf
* create a user that will run the daemon
* optionally, download a fresh database from the Electrum-CESC Foundry.
If you choose not to use the Foundry, your server will have to build
the database from scratch. This process can take several days. To
speed it up, it is recommended to locate your database in shared
memory, in electrum-cesc.conf: path = /run/shm/electrum-cesc_db
Note: The 'configure' script does not configure SSL and IRC. You will
need to manually edit the configuration file in order to enable SSL on
your server, and to be visible on IRC.
3. Install the python package
-----------------------------
$ sudo python setup.py install
Note: You will need to redo this everytime you pull code from git.
4. Using the server
-------------------
Use 'electrum-server-cesc' to start and stop the server:
$ electrum-server-cesc <start|stop|status|getinfo>
The server will write a log file in its database path.
5. Add electrum-server-cesc to your system's services
----------------------------------------------------
If your system supports it, you may add electrum-server-cesc to the
/etc/init.d directory. This will ensure that the server is started and
stopped automatically, and that the database is closed safely whenever
your machine is rebooted.
# ln -s `which electrum-server-cesc` /etc/init.d/electrum-server-cesc
# update-rc.d electrum-server-cesc defaults
6. Troubleshooting:
-------------------
* if your server or cryptoescudod is killed because is uses too much
memory, configure cryptoescudod to limit the number of connections
* if you see "Too many open files" errors, you may need to increase
your user's File Descriptors limit. For this, see
