-title: Regtest Setup
-description: Regtest is a parallel testing network for the LBRY blockchain. Learn how to use it in this resource article.
---- 
-
-## Why Use Regtest
-
-A regtest server provides for a way to instantly generate blocks so that transactions can be instantaneous, which ultimately means no waiting for confirmations from the blockchain. Also, it’s not a problem if you accidentally corrupt your wallet, since no real funds are lost! Delete the files and setup a new one.
-
-## Setup
-
-To begin setting up the network, there are a few things you need.
-
-You'll need a Linux or a Mac distribution to run all this. A virtual machine is fine.
-Note: These instructions specifically were tested on Ubuntu version 16.04.
-
-### Virtual Environment
-
-First up it's a good idea to create a Python virtual environment. This requires you to have a functional python2.7 setup, with the Python package manager `pip` installed. To create a new virtual environment in a folder `lbry-env`, run this:
-`virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python2.7 lbry-env`
-To enter the environment, run:
-`source lbry-env/bin/activate`.
-
-### lbrycrd
-
-You need to download a build of `lbrycrd` from [here](https://github.com/lbryio/lbrycrd/releases/), no installation required. To configure `lbrycrd` you need to create a file at `~/.lbrycrd/lbrycrd.conf`,
-containing the following:
-```ini
-rpcuser=test
-rpcpassword=test
-rpcport=18332
-regtest=1
-server=1
-txindex=1
-daemon=1
-listen=0
-discover=0
-```
-
-### lbryum-server
-
-To install lbryum-server, you first need to install the package `leveldb`. After that, download the source from [here](https://github.com/lbryio/lbryum-server/releases), and run the following _not_ inside the environment:
-```bash
-cd lbryum-server
-sudo pip2 install -r requirements.txt
-```
-
-If you're not running debian/\*buntu or a derivative of those, you need to edit the `configure` file a bit. In line 11, remove the `apt-get` line and manually install the required packages. In line 51, change `adduser` to `useradd` and on the same line, change `--disabled-password` to `-p !`.
-
-```bash
-sudo ./configure
-sudo python2 setup.py install
-```
-The `sudo ./configure` command creates a new user in the system by the name "lbryum", which is the user through which we'll be running the server. lbryum-server also needs W/R access to `/var/lbryum-server`.
-To do that run:
-```bash
-sudo chown -R lbryum /var/lbryum-server
-```
-When installed, append/use the following config options to the `/etc/lbryum.conf` file:
-```ini
-[lbrycrdd]
-lbrycrdd_host = localhost
-lbrycrdd_port = 18332
-# user and password from lbrycrd.conf
-lbrycrdd_user = test
-lbrycrdd_password = test
-
-[network]
-type=lbrycrd_regtest
-```
-
-### lbryum
-
-To install lbryum, first download the source from [here](https://github.com/lbryio/lbryum/releases). To install it, run the following inside the virtual environment:
-```bash
-cd lbryum
-pip2 install -r requirements.txt
-pip2 install -e .
-```
-
-After installation completes, you must set the config option for lbryum using:
-```bash
-lbryum setconfig default_servers '{ "localhost": { "t": "50001" }}'
-lbryum setconfig chain 'lbrycrd_regtest'
-```
-
-Alternatively, you can create a file `touch ~/.lbryum/config` and paste the following config:
-```json
-{
-  "chain": "lbrycrd_regtest",
-  "default_servers": {
-    "localhost": {
-      "t": "50001"
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### lbry
-
-Download source from [here](https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-sdk/releases), and run the following inside the environment:
-```bash
-cd lbry
-pip2 install -r requirements.txt
-pip2 install -e .
-mkdir ~/.lbrynet
-touch ~/.lbrynet/daemon_settings.yml
-```
-
-Append the following in the newly created `~/.lbrynet/daemon_settings.yml` file:
-```yml
-blockchain_name: lbrycrd_regtest
-lbryum_servers:
-- localhost:50001
-reflect_uploads: false
-share_usage_data: false
-use_upnp: false
-```
-
-### Last step
-Go to the `lbryum` folder once again and run:
-```bash
-pip2 install -e .
-```
-This is to ensure that `lbrynet-daemon` uses the correct wallet.
-
-## Firing up the regtest server
-
-### Wallet backup
-
-To start off, if you've already used LBRY on your machine, you need to backup the wallet by copying the folders `~/.lbrynet` and `~/.lbryum` and then deleting them to start from fresh. Run
-`mkdir ~/.lbryum`
-
-Now it should be all set-up. Just execute the commands in the following order, and the regtest server should be good to go.
-
-### 1) lbrycrd
-
-To run the `lbrycrd` daemon, run the following in the `lbrycrd` folder:
-`./lbrycrdd`
-
-To generate blocks, run `./lbrycrd-cli generate <num_of_blocks>`
-You'll need to generate some blocks to get the network going. Start off by generating at least 100.
-`./lbrycrd-cli generate 173`
-
-If you'd prefer a more verbose output from lbrycrdd, run lbrycrd using:
-`./lbrycrdd -printtoconsole`
-
-### 2) lbryum-server
-
-To run the server, run:
-```bash
-sudo runuser -l lbryum -c 'lbryum-server --conf=/etc/lbryum.conf'
-```
-Note: conf flag can be left out if the config is in the default directory(default: `/etc/lbryum.conf`)
-
-### 3) lbryum
-
-To run the lbryum, run:
-```bash
-lbryum daemon start
-```
-
-Generate some more blocks, get a wallet address by running:
-`lbryum getunusedaddress`
-and then send some credits to your wallet by doing
-`./lbrycrd-cli sendtoaddress <address> <num_of_credits>`
-
-### 4) lbry
-
-You can now run `lbrynet-daemon`, and it should connect to the `lbryum`. Now you can use the regtest stack as you would normally use lbryum.
-
-## Shutdown
-
-To stop the network, run `lbrynet-cli daemon_stop`, `lbryum daemon stop`, and kill the `lbryum-server` process and stop lbrycrd by `lbrycrdd-cli stop`. If you want to use your wallet and the official servers again, backup the new regtest wallet, and replace it with your own.
-
-## Note 1
-You need to generate a few blocks every time you make a new transaction in the form of send, receive, claim, update, publish, support, tip, etc. for it to show up in the daemon and lbryum, etc.
-
-## Note 2
-If something goes wrong and you get a "Block not found" error, remember to delete `/var/lbryum-server` before trying again.
-
-## Cheatsheet
-
-#### Required processes in the correct order
-```bash
-lbrycrdd
-
-sudo runuser -l lbryum -c 'lbryum-server --conf=/etc/lbryum.conf'
-
-lbryum daemon start
-
-lbrynet-daemon
-```
-
-#### Generate blocks
-```bash
-lbrycrd-cli generate 5
-```
-
-#### Get a wallet address
-```bash
-lbryum getunsusedaddress
-```
-
-#### Send credits from lbrycrd to your wallet
-```bash
-lbrycrd-cli sendtoaddress <address> <num_of_credits>
-```
