some troubles

[Mourrit]

(sorry for my not perfect English)

I had some troubles using mytonctrl utility.

I use Fedora Linux and mytonctrl is not supported for my OS, so first I tried to install mytonctrl into Debian official Docker container (latest tag).

In the official Debian Docker container by default not installed some packages as "wget" and "systemd" ("systemd" is needed to run "systemctl" command). "wget" is easy to install, but install and customize "systemd" is a bit difficult.

So then mytonctrl is not simple one-script install in this way.

In the installation process raised such exception.

On the third try I got:

"[4/4] Mytonctrl installation completed"

After installation, I got some problems.

In the official Ubuntu Docker container (ubuntu:20.04) situation is the same as in the official Debian Docker container.

Then I tried to use mytonctrl in Debian (10.9.0) via VirtualBox.

And then I tried to use mytonctrl in Ubuntu (20.04.2.0) via VirtualBox.

Bug float division by zero fixed by this commit: 33fde92

The WaitTransaction error: time out error occurs due to a long processing of the request by the LiteServer. Mytonctrl waits 30 seconds and gives an error, although the transaction can be completed in 31 seconds. In general, this error can be ignored if funds have been successfully received after a certain time. But maybe LiteServer dropped your transfer request due to its high workload - then you will have to repeat the request for sending coins. But this is rare. I am going to add a function to select the best LiteServer to mytonctrl shortly.

Due to the peculiarity of work, mytonctrl uses systemd, and therefore cannot be used inside docker. Maybe someone will fix this in the future. But so far mytonctrl is not friendly with docker.

About systemd in docker
Install sudo apt-get install systemd in the docker environment to install it smoothly.
But when the docker container is restarted, systemd will not work.
We must restart these systemd services manually.
