Can get extra bitcoind
help messages using -help-debug
flag:
bitcoind -help-debug -help
The -acceptnonstdtxn
flag is used only in regtest/testnet mode and defaults to 1, meaning it accepts non-standard TXs. We want to set this to 0 to ensure Catena transactions are accepted as standard transactions.
By default debug output goes to the debug.log
file in the datadir, which defaults to ~/.bitcoin/regtest
on the regtest network.
