Steemit mining/node hangs on "Started witness node on a chain with 0 blocks"
I found several posts re this but they all seemed to be related to an issue in the config file with the endpoint ip not being set properly and mine seems to be the two files (blocks and index)in \steem\witness_node_data_dir\blockchain\database\block_num_to_block\ remain at 0kb
Thanks
when i run steemd.exe or steemd.exe --replay I get the following

disregard looks like the tutorial I was following was out of data and there for I downloaded an old version. Im going to try in a ubuntu vm
