I use the Geth framework and Swift 4 to boot a node inside an iOS 11.0 app. This node connects to my local BKC (to 4 nodes to be precise).
Here are some tests I made :
- if I start 3 computer nodes and start mining, the 4th computer node will sync on start
- if I start all my nodes (computer and app) and start mining on a computer node, each node will notice it and sync
- if I start all my computer nodes and start mining and then I boot a fresh new app node, the app node won't sync (even if he connects without any issue to computer nodes)
- if I start my app node with Rinkeby genesis and bootnodes, it will sync after a few seconds
So, I probably missed something but I don't understand why my app node syncs with Rinkeby and not with my private blockchain.
I'm using a static-nodes.json file to connect all my nodes together (computer and app).
I start my computer nodes with :
geth --datadir <datadir> --port <port> --networkid <id> --v5disc --lightserv <int> console
.
I use a custom genesis file. The admin.peers
method confirms me that all my nodes connect to each other without any issue. And I use the GethSetVerbosity(9)
to display trace and debug in my Xcode console.
Any idea ?
