A bug among either their documentation or me. 6:43a adding the url scheme does not prevent the same fatal error message 6:46a it also needs the domain name resolved. This launch string is working for me: FULLNODE_API_INFO="/ip4/[2]104.21.75.210/tcp/1234/http" lotus daemon --lite ! ERROR: dial tcp [3]104.21.75.210:1234: i/o timeout I'll plan to try another ip and change tasks to renting a full node if it fails too.
