Delegated Harvesting 699 error

Hey guys, I set up NCC and started delegated harvesting. Worked fine first time with 2 instances of “harvesting” 18 coins and 0 coins (weird). Since restarted my comp every time I try to start harvesting again I get the following error message:

ERROR 699
NIS: HARVESTING LIMIT HIT

I have tried numerous times to restart software etc. Help?

Anyone?

Lost 4 days of harvesting so far :frowning:

First of all getting 18 XEM and then 0 is not weird. The reward depends on transaction fees. If there are no transactions in the block you harvested you won’t get a reward.

Secondly I’m guessing you already/still are harvesting. Either you activated delegated harvesting and are trying to activate local harvesting or the other way around. Or you have that NIS set to auto-harvest and are trying to activate it again. I guess there are a couple ways to produce the error but it all comes down to someone is already harvesting on that NIS and you are trying to harvest there again. Is that a remote NIS ? The default Limit of harvesters for any given NIS is 1 which is why you get the error. You can raise it in the config file the location of which eludes me right now.

The UX of that particular part of NCC is terrible so I totally understand why you ran into that error. I understand it’s being worked on though.

Not sure what happened exactly but after I restarted my computer I was given the option to “Start Delegated Harvesting” on the tab in the wallet and that error was popping up.

It has since resolved itself it seems. Clicked button to start delegated harvesting and no issues. Have not harvested any blocks so far though. Been 2 days. I’ll wait a week and post back if there are problems.

Thanks for your help :smile:

Happy New Year!

“NIS needs to be booted. Please open your wallet and boot a local node via the popup dialog or configure the auto-boot setting” - I do get this when I open my wallet though. What does this mean? There is no pop up dialogue and what is auto-boot setting?

Means you NIS is not booted. Basically every NIS needs to be started with a specific account tied to it. The auto-boot setting automatically boots NIS for you with your primary account should you have one.

OK found and toggled boot local node, everything “seems” fine now. Do I select auto boot in settings?

yes
