Unable to register DID with Endorser

MakTom opened this issue · 16 comments

While registering a DID with Endorser role, I am getting following error.
Error

This has started happening after today noon. It was working fine before that.

BCovrin Test is currently in a bad state — hence this error. Someone demoted the Trustee DID. We’re checking on recovery or reset as the solution, so hold tight. Sorry for the inconvenience.

To be clear, this is not an issue with Indy — just that we set up a sandbox that anyone could use and someone abused the privilege. Now that we realize someone might do this, we’ll take steps to prevent a repeat...

Thanks @swcurran, can you please share a timeline if you have any, by which we can expect BCovrin test to be working again?

Plan is for today. A recovery attempt is being tried (not sure of the status) and if that is too complicated or deemed not possible, we’ll reset the network and relaunch — with better protections.

BCovrin Test was reset and was back online at just before 12pm Pacific Friday, July 28th.

I am currently getting thesame error ("Identity not registered") also happening with my local Von-network

@lenrepo, I just tested DID registration on BCovrin Test and it's working for me. Could you provide additional details? For your local instance of von-network, ensure all the nodes are actually running.

The usual documentation “says enter your name on the seed textbox“ this is misleading as this whole operation assumes you had pre-generated a seed  and a key probably in base 64

Can you provide a link to this documentation please?
