harvester not connecting to main node in ubuntu

[squatchangry]

This is what i get from my harvester. I'm not sure what I did wrong, perhaps I did or missed something silly.

I'm pretty sure I followed the https://github.com/Chia-Network/chia-blockchain/wiki/Farming-on-many-machines guide well, but I think there is some detail that i'm missing. Perhaps something not discussed in the guide. Any help would be appreciated. I am very rusty when it comes to Linux based operating systems.

My harvester is connected via ethernet and my main node/farmer is using wiFi.

looks like i fixed my problem on my own. I tried to ping my main farmer and got nothing. Confusing, because I was able to log into it and even install chia from the main system.

It turns out that my harvester was plugged into a different router than my farmer was connected to. The easy solution for me was to plug my harvester directly into the same router as my farmer.

If you are still experiencing the issues it is recommended to upgrade to the latest version of chia. Please download it from here: https://www.chia.net/downloads/

Since this issue has been open for a number of years without additional comments, we will be closing this ticket but if we have closed this ticket in error do not hesitate to reach out to us again with any followup questions, comments, or if the issue persists after an update.

Please note that upgrading major versions of chia generally requires the config.yaml to be recreated using these steps:
1. Stop chia
2. Rename the config or move it to a different directory
3. In CLI run chia init
4. Copy any custom settings from the old config to the new (plot drive directories, pool info, trusted node info, etc) - be careful here as yaml is very picky about formatting including those leading spaces
5. Start Chia
