My issue is I cannot get RPC working with Bitcoin Core. I do not know what I'm doing wrong! When I first installed Bitcoin Core it did not come with a bitcoin.conf file so I created one with the following details:
server=1
rpcuser=root
rpcpassword=password
rpcconnect=127.0.0.1
rpcport=8332
That's all I have in there. And yes my Bitcoin Core client is in sync with the bitcoin network.
I've also checked my router and it is UPNP enabled and I literally see the port in my router's configuration open. The port is: 8333
And it is the only port open. Do not know if I need 8332 open. Please shed some light on this for me. What I am trying to accomplish is to get PHP to interact with bitcoind such as generate a new bitcoin address.
1Is the script trying to generate a new address on the same computer as the bitcoin client? – Nick ODell – 2015-05-04T22:04:24.110
Have you tried adding
rpcallow=127.0.0.1? – morsecoder – 2015-05-04T22:22:14.043One possibility is that your bitcoin.conf is not in the directory where Bitcoin Core expects it to be. – Nate Eldredge – 2015-05-05T16:41:49.390
@StephenM347 127.0.0.1 is automatically whitelisted. – Nick ODell – 2015-06-21T17:04:19.660
