Did either of you 2 find a fix for this? My Mac battery died, left unplgged too long, and when I restart the laptop and try to get the Pi-Node running I'm getting the same error. The Download Port Listener will not work. The Port Listener is absent, yet I changed nothing in the ports and the Pi-Node was working when the battery died.

Anyone have any Ideas?
Thanks
Scott

Thanks, That didn't work. There is no user-preferences.json on my computer. It is the PortsChecker container: absent that is the problem not the Consensous Container.

Ports checkers isn’t needed. I ran the node without ever running the ports checker after my HD crashed and I changed to a different laptop. I guess if your node never ran, you might not have the user-preferences. There was an earlier issue posted about reinstalling, maybe #93. I followed that after the HD crashed and it got me running.

FWIW, I checked my ports manually on my PC to make sure they were open. Never had a problem. I’m down now for relocating so can’t do much for a couple months. However, I’m still getting my node bonus of over 6.x on most days even though I put node pc into stg a month ago! Have zero expectations pi will ever be worth cash, so not sure I’ll bother with restoring the node. Anyway, try poking around these issue posts, so nuggets of good info here and there.
