Orchestrator can not be inactive

Hi,

I am new to Livepeer! When i follow the guide to build the enviroment for livepeer, i meet a problem as follow:

I start orchestrator like this:
’ livepeer -network rinkeby -ethUrl https://rinkeby.infura.io/v3/b629f724e6134a31baf2e3356fd638eb -orchestrator -transcoder -pricePerUnit 1 --serviceAddr 192.17.1.200:8935’

the ouput log is:

**
at the same time, the orchestrator report error:

I do not know how to correct these problems, so need your help!

                                            Thanks a lot

Hi @malongfei - thanks for reporting this. Did you manage to get any help from the community to try to resolve this? I know others in the Telegram group were having similar experiences. Discord is the best place to get fast answers on tech setup stuff…

In this case, are you running against a local RPC endpoint, or a hosted one like Infura?

One thing what I can see there is the private IP provided rather than domain address or public IP.
Also don’t forget of port forwarding if that is your case.
