   Hi, I am running bitcoin signet node v22.0 with below parameters. I am unable to get any response on websocket port.

    0            - '-chain=signet'
    1            - >-
    2              -addnode=178.63.103.48,135.181.75.145,71.80.46.121,195.201.164.54,65.21.171.164,135.180.99.74,188.34.165.181,185.148.37.152

   14            - '-dbcache=2048'

   16            - '-deprecatedrpc=addresses'
   17            - '-printtoconsole'
   

   Any idea what can be the reason?

   Is this v22.0 or v26.0: #32762 (comment)? Please only open issues when using a maintained version of Bitcoin Core, which is currently 27.x, 28.x or 29.x.

   @fanquake Thanks for checking I am using v22.0 for signet node.

   0signet-1-0:~/bitcoin# bitcoind --version
   1Bitcoin Core version v22.0.0
   

   I was able to fix the initial sync issue by addnode referring #32762 (comment)

   Bitcoin Core has no websocket support whatsoever.

   Is this still an issue with a recent version of Bitcoin Core? If yes, what are the steps to reproduce?

   I am trying to perform rawtx using websocket.

   It think it works on bitcoin testnet & mainnet network with version v22.0.0.

   I am wondering why it’s not working with signet.

   Can you elaborate on what you’re using? Because as I mentioned, Bitcoin Core has no websocket support. You may be using JSON-RPC, or ZMQ, or a P2P connection…

   @sipa Sorry for the confusion, I am using zmqpubrawtx port on testnet & mainnet network.

   Same doesn’t work with signet for me.

   What are the exact steps to reproduce the working case and the failing case. What is the error message?

   Without any details there is nothing that can be done here.
