Thanks for the procedure.
It  started working to download the blockchain fine, but at the end it aborts with:
1006431ms th_a       main.cpp:182                  main                 ] Started witness node on a chain with 3350236 blocks.
Floating point exception

What could be the problem?
Thanks

Have not seen that error before. Double check your config, and if you can not find anything wrong. head to slack #mining channel, see if someone can help with that error.

The problem was due to  very few resources. I added more cpu and ram to VPS and problem went away.
Lesson learned: Use a dedicated server with LOTS of CPU power and RAM if you want to effectively mine Steem.
