Continuation of "How to sync testnet of BCHN"

[sugawara0620]

Hi,

I try to test my application with Bitcoin ABC 0.22.6 (BCHN Network).

I expect this sync to testnet of BCHN.
But this sync to testnet of BCHA(https://texplorer.bitcoincash.org/).

I use this.
https://download.bitcoinabc.org/bchn/0.22.6/linux/bitcoin-abc-0.22.6-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz

And here is a start of the logs.

Is this specification or failure on configuration?

Thanks.

Run reconsiderblock on the block just before the one you listed.

Is this specification or failure on configuration?

Yes, this is the expected behavior. Your testnet node seems to be operating normally.

The testnet for BCHN version of ABC is at texplorer.bitcoincash.org

It is the same as the BCHA testnet, since the two networks operate almost exactly the same (other than the coinbase rule - which is disabled on testnet)

Thanks. I got it.
