Error message when starting farmerbot

[TFFarmer]

Hi,
I am getting this error when starting farmerbot, any ideas?

Hi,
This looks like a configuration mistake. Can you send us the configuration you used? Please send these files:

• the .env file but make sure to cover up your secret
• the markdown file containing your farmerbot configuration
• the docker-compose file

[brandonpille]

Did you properly setup your .env file? Here is how it should look like:

SECRET="MNEMONIC_OR_HEX_SECRET_OF_YOUR_FARM"
NETWORK=main
RELAY=wss://relay.grid.tf:443
SUBSTRATE=wss://tfchain.grid.tf:443

[TFFarmer]

Has the configuration changed from the previous farmerbot? Because I have been running it for several months…
I don’t see any .env file under mainnet folder…

[brandonpille]

The .env has always been required. Though as it starts with a dot you won’t be able to see it by doing ls. You need to type ls -a

[TFFarmer]

found it! it is just a .env file without a name
It says exactly what you indicated above…

Issue remains unsolved…

[tullysinc]

Can you confirm if you have updated the docker compose file?

Farmerbot update required for Grid 3.11

Hello farmers, Due to a communication hiccup, we released Grid 3.11 yesterday without a timely notification that this release requires an update to the farmerbot. Thanks to all the farmers who let us know as soon as they saw an issue. If you haven’t done it yet, please update your farmerbot by applying the latest Docker Compose file using the commands shown below: x64 (AMD/Intel) docker compose rm -f -s -v rm docker-compose.yaml wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/threefoldtech/farmerbot/…

[scott]

Please double check that your .env uses a SECRET field rather than MNEMONIC. The latter was the old form that’s been deprecated.

[TFFarmer]

Hi Scott, it does use the SECRET property, and I removed docker-compose.yaml again and and re-did all the removal and installation but when doing compose up it keeps throwing the error after the
$ /node_modules/.bin/grid_http_server -c /root/config.json
line

The previous version of the farmerbot worked fine for the last couple of weeks, no hicups, but I cannot get this version to work…

[Amanda]

Hello @TFFarmer! Can you also send the complete log file to us, please? You can get the log file by going to docker-compose logs > containers.log

[TFFarmer]

I have no idea where to find those logs, but if I do a docker compose logs, this is what I get:

Hi TFFarmer, If you can send/share the complete docker compose logs > containers.log that will be helpful for troubleshooting.
Also, when you update the YAML file, did you run those four commands in a terminal while in the same folder as your existing docker-compose.yaml file?

[TFFarmer]

Hi, yes I did run all commands, making sure .yaml file was relaced.
The problem is that I cannot find those container.log files

[TFFarmer]

Farm has been down for over 2 weeks now… sorry but that is not what I would expect in terms of support!

[shang4u]

It may be removed/deleted. Please check with the default location for container.log files on your Docker host. On Linux: /var/lib/docker/containers/<container_id>. On Windows: C:\ProgramData\Docker\containers<container-id>-json.log. Also, please get in touch with our support here. We will be glad to help you.
