Hi all,

I running a node beta-4 since few weeks and now I want to upgrade it for beta-5.

I keep peer-id value (secret key) and running these commands in order :

~ fuelup toolchain install beta-5  
~ fuelup default beta-5

then :

- rename .fuel\_beta4 folder to .fuel\_beta5
- Add the new chainConfig.json find on the doc : [Running a Testnet Node | Fuel Docs](https://docs.fuel.network/guides/running-a-node/running-a-testnet-node/) , rename it to “chainConfig-b5.json”

And :

- Run node command :

fuel-core run --service-name “lecryptok\_fuel\_node” --keypair “my\_key\_pair\_value” --relayer “[https://sepolia.infura.io/v3/“my\_infura\_id”](https://sepolia.infura.io/v3/%22my_infura_id%22)” --ip 0.0.0.0 --port 4000 --peering-port 30333 --db-path /root/.fuel\_beta5 --chain /root/chainConfig-b5.json --utxo-validation --poa-instant false --enable-p2p --min-gas-price 1 --max-block-size 18874368 --max-transmit-size 18874368 --reserved-nodes /dns4/p2p-beta-5.fuel.network/tcp/30333/p2p/16Uiu2HAmSMqLSibvGCvg8EFLrpnmrXw1GZ2ADX3U2c9ttQSvFtZX,/dns4/p2p-beta-5.fuel.network/tcp/30334/p2p/16Uiu2HAmVUHZ3Yimoh4fBbFqAb3AC4QR1cyo8bUF4qyi8eiUjpVP --sync-header-batch-size 100 --enable-relayer --relayer-v2-listening-contracts 0x557c5cE22F877d975C2cB13D0a961a182d740fD5 --relayer-da-deploy-height 4867877 --relayer-log-page-size 2000

Here my error :

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/fuel/original/2X/e/e31cfcd31b302b21afccd1704a42aa2b7893bd98.png)

Question/Answer :

- **Why rename folder .fuelup\_beta4 to .fuelup\_beta5 ?**  
 → Because .fuelup\_beta5 is not created automatically after using these commands :  
~ fuelup toolchain install beta-5  
~ fuelup default beta-5

- **And if you run the command ; rm rf ~/.fuel/db ?**  
 → No, same issue is returned when I re-run the node command launch

Other question :  
**Why .fuelup toolchain install --help doesn’t return beta-5 as value ?**

Thank you to help me !  
See you !

Hello @Lecryptok ,

Could you try re-running the command, but change --db-path /root/.fuel\_beta5 to --db-path ~/.fuel\_beta5

Thank you for you answer.  
The issue is different but still present :

Even though I’d like to create a new node in beta-5, the official documentation isn’t enough, is it ?

How do you do to create a node with beta-5 if :

1. .fuelup toolchain install --help doesn’t return beta-5 as value
2. .fuelup\_beta5 is not created automatically after using these commands :  
~ fuelup toolchain install beta-5  
~ fuelup default beta-5

Sorry you are still encountering errors. One thing that might work is `rm-rf ~/.fuel_beta5`. If this doesn’t work could you please show me the output/screenshot of:  
`fuelup show`  
`fuelup check`  
`which fuel-core`

Also I’m not sure why beta-5 is not listed as a toolchain in fuelup, but the lastest toolchain is pinned to the same versions as the beta-5 toolchain. Why do you expect .fuelup\_beta5 to be created? Do we mention that somewhere in our docs? fuelup manages various toolchains from the ~/.fuelup folder.

Sure, here screenshots of :

About your question :  
**Why do you expect .fuelup\_beta5 to be created? Do we mention that somewhere in our docs?**

- From official doc , we can see that :

So all of the output of your commands looks correct. Did you try my suggestion of removing the ~/.fuel\_beta5 folder before running the command again?

When running this on my computer I did not have to create this folder. I believe if the command fails it probably does not create the folder which is what is happening in your case.

Where are you running the command `fuel-core run ...` from?

Thank you Matt !  
I had to delete the .fuel\_beta5 and run the fuel-core run command. It created the .fuel\_beta5 folder automatically !

My node is running but error appears ? Need to fix it ?

Hi @Lecryptok is your `--relayer-log-page-size` set to 2000 ?

Last question,  
Is it possible to link our fuel wallet to our node/validator ? Or , it is not possible yet ?

@Lecryptok could you explain what you mean by link your fuel wallet to your fuel node/validator?

Somes projects add the posibility to link the node/validator to a wallet address through the creation run command.

That give the possibilities to interact with project network , like : create smart contract or make staking actions directly through the wallet linked to a validator.

I don’t find this on Fuel project, maybe I missed something
