Title: [SOLVED] Connect to bitcoind from outside Post by: Soak on June 26, 2011, 06:51:47 PM Hello,
I have a dedicated server with a bitcoin daemon running somewhere on Internet. I try to reach it on another dedicated server (with JSON and PHP), the page loading for a while and nothing happen. My bitcoin.conf file : Quote rpcuser=user rpcpassword=pass rpcallowip=client server IP server=1 rpcport=8332 I launch daemon with ./bitcoind -daemon. ./bitcoind getinfo works. curl http://user:pass@127.0.0.1:8332/ works. Quote admin@daemon:~$ curl http://user:pass@127.0.0.1:8332/ {"result":null,"error":{"code":-32700,"message":"Parse error"},"id":null} curl http://user:pass@server daemon IP:8332/ don't work. Quote admin@daemon:~$ curl http://user:pass@server daemon IP:8332/ curl: (7) couldn't connect to host Anybody can help me please?

Title: Re: Connect to bitcoind from outside Post by: Soak on June 26, 2011, 07:06:52 PM Show us the 'netstat' line that shows the LISTENING socket on port 8332. Is it bound to 127.0.0.1? Quote netstat tcp 0 0 *:8332 *:* LISTEN Quote netstat -an tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:8332 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN That's wrong? How I can modify that? Title: Re: Connect to bitcoind from outside Post by: JoelKatz on June 26, 2011, 07:17:02 PM No, that's correct. Make sure the IP address you are connecting *from* is allowed in the conf file.
Title: Re: Connect to bitcoind from outside Post by: Soak on June 26, 2011, 07:24:11 PM No, that's correct. Make sure the IP address you are connecting *from* is allowed in the conf file. Yes. The IP address in the conf file is correct. I added the server daemon "outside" IP in the conf file. Quote rpcallowip=client IP address rpcallowip=server daemon IP address Quote admin@daemon:~$ curl http://user:pass@server daemon IP:8332/ curl: (7) couldn't connect to host I don't know what to do now.. :( Title: Re: Connect to bitcoind from outside Post by: ShaggyB (BitCoinWorldMarket) on June 26, 2011, 07:31:57 PM Do you have a firewall blocking incoming 8332 connections?
Title: Re: Connect to bitcoind from outside Post by: Soak on June 26, 2011, 07:33:57 PM Do you have a firewall blocking incoming 8332 connections? How I can verify that please? Title: Re: Connect to bitcoind from outside Post by: ShaggyB (BitCoinWorldMarket) on June 26, 2011, 07:35:40 PM If you are on a windows box, go to control panels and firewall settings. You will likely have to create a rule for that port. If you are on a linux box or other, i cant help you. Google is your friend for that.

Title: Re: Connect to bitcoind from outside Post by: Soak on June 26, 2011, 07:39:36 PM what machine are you on? windows or linux? The daemon is currently running on Debian 6.0 64 bits. Title: Re: Connect to bitcoind from outside Post by: progre55 on June 26, 2011, 07:48:24 PM then to check if you have any port restrictions on your current machine
Code: iptables -L other than that, make sure you're not behind a corporate network, or amazon clouds or anything =) Title: Re: Connect to bitcoind from outside Post by: Soak on June 26, 2011, 07:51:25 PM Code: iptables -L Quote root@daemon:~# iptables -L Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Title: Re: Connect to bitcoind from outside Post by: progre55 on June 26, 2011, 07:58:52 PM well it means you dont have any rules..
btw, try telneting to your machine from outsite Code: telnet host port Title: Re: Connect to bitcoind from outside Post by: Soak on June 26, 2011, 08:10:15 PM Code: telnet host port Quote soak@client:~$ telnet 88.191.128.82 8332 Trying 88.191.128.82... Connected to 88.191.128.82. Escape character is '^]'. Connection closed by foreign host. Title: Re: Connect to bitcoind from outside Post by: progre55 on June 26, 2011, 08:14:22 PM Even I was able to connect to your server
Code: progre55@progre55:~$ curl http://user:pass@88.191.128.82:8332/ I dont see any problems.. so it's probably on your client side Title: Re: Connect to bitcoind from outside Post by: Soak on June 26, 2011, 08:20:39 PM I dont see any problems.. so it's probably on your client side Now that's works with rpcallowip=*.*.*.*, but don't with PHP and JSON. Edit: Now it's ok since I explain my problem on the IRC channel of my hosting provider, by miracle the server is reachable on port 8332 (I don't give the IP of my server!). Awesome. |
