Sawtooth transaction not committed - hyperledger-sawtooth

Question

I want to set up sawtooth with multiple validators and PoET engines.
Initially I am trying to set up with just 1 Validator, 1 PoET engine, 1 PoET registry, and the intkey Transaction processor(set up using NodeJs SDK). When I launch the network and connect the TP, it registers. But when I submit a transaction to the rest API, the response URL says PENDING. the validator logs say block validation passed but the block is not created.

I found some errors here, but how to fix these?

Answer 1

You will need a minimum of two Transaction Processors per node to make the PoET work.
I have the same type of setup; but I am running TP's in Kubernetes and have three replica set(s) per Node in the network.
Besides look at the validator.toml and make sure that you have the bind to network 0.0.0.0, I have tried to bind it to a specific NIC ip and it does not work. Only 0.0.0.0 (all ips) seems to work fine.
