That was it. Didn‘t see the typo.
It was very attentive of you.
Now it works.
Thank you!

Seeing a similar error

time="2020-04-16T15:56:34Z" level=error msg="[main] setting up: prysm: getting version: rpc error: code = Unavailable desc = connection error: desc = \"transport: Error while dialing dial tcp: address http://localhost:4000: too many colons in address\""

with --beacon.addr=http://localhost:4000

from eth2stats-client.

hey
@Youllneverknow0 for lighthouse we are connecting over http so the beacon.addr flag should be --beacon.addr="http://localhost:5052"

@timmyers for prysm we are using grpc so the relevant flags should be something like

--beacon.addr="localhost:4000" \
--beacon.metrics-addr="http://localhost:8080/metrics"

i get how this is confusing, it mostly stems from lack of stndardisation but it of course could do with some better error messages. in the mean time I have also added a new onboarding page https://eth2stats.io/add-node which should help with small but annoying things like these

(will leave this open till i add more meaningful error messages)

This does indeed help. Thank you tzapu.

It seems to be running now but not connecting.
