I am trying to create a private network on docker such that each geth node in the network is run on a docker container.

I followed this git hub blog :https://gist.github.com/fishbullet/04fcc4f7af90ee9fa6f9de0b0aa325ab . I am able to create containers and run geth nodes but the nodes always show hashrate=0.It take a lot of time to mine even if the difficulty in the genesis file is set to very low value(0x10). I thought it is the geth version problem.Will it work if I downgrade geth to lower version ??

geth version:1.8.2 Ubuntu VM :16.04 OS: windows 7 (I am using docker tool box). Can someone help me with this...

  • On which nodes are you trying to mine? The creation of the DAG ethereum.stackexchange.com/questions/1993/… is a very space and cpu consuming task. So, if the nodes you are deploying your network are not powerful, this task requires a lot of time. The dag does not depend on the difficulty as you can read in the yellow paper.

We have written a Docker container to run a private Ethereum network that works with Remix and MetaMask. You can see the details on our Dockerized Ethereum Private Testing Environment Compatible with MetaMask and Remix.
