Hi all, I am trying to run my project on mainnet through sandbox. I have to run “./sandbox up mainnet” before starting my server. If I dont do it I get null for information that I am trying to fetch from blockchain. It also takes too long to catchup like atleast 2-3 hours or so Is there any sol…

Can you provide sandbox.log? Can you show what you see when doing ./sandbox up mainnet and what steps take too long? Catching up with mainnet requires an SSD, at least 4-8GB of RAM, and a fast enough Internet connection (at least 10Mbps) due to the amount of transactions on MainNet. If you’re usi…
