RE: [Guide] Steem Windows Mining in a Linux Virtual Machine

in #steem • 7 years ago

I know this post is old, however, I am having some issues with step 8. I have done all of the steps before it however when I enter...

 cd witness_node_data_dir

I get the error saying "no such file or directory found"

Can you please help me?

    Ok first of all, mining is no longer possible with Steem, and these instructions are also out of date in a couple ways.

    It may point in the general direction of successfully building still, but understand that if you want to build a node now, you should do a git checkout of the latest release tag (not master) before doing the git submodule update step.

    The witness_node_data_dir is created after running steemd for the first time. So run it, give it a second, and then quit it with CTRL+C. Then there will be that directory with config.ini within.
