Title: Help using RPC-JSON w/ BITCOIND on Ubuntu 12.04 and Windows 7 Post by: mrfakename on December 10, 2013, 12:28:12 AM I simply cannot get port 8332 to open for me when using BITCOIND both under Ubuntu and Windows.
The bitcoin.conf file reads as follows: server=1 rpcuser=hello1 rpcuser=12345 rpcallowip=* rpcport=8332 gen=0 It is located in ~/.bitcoin and %appdata%\bitcoin for Ubuntu and Windows, respecitvely. I've opened a port forward for TCP/UDP 8332-8333 on router. What on Earth am I doing wrong? I need to access BITCOIND via RPC to run a Ruby script and no matter what I do, I simply cannot get port 8332 to open (and hence get RPC to work).

When I connect using Bitcoin-qt under Windows port 8332 opens! So it's not a port forwarding issue. Can someone please tell me where I'm going wrong using the daemon (bitcoind) Title: Re: Help using RPC-JSON w/ BITCOIND on Ubuntu 12.04 and Windows 7 Post by: kostagr33k on December 10, 2013, 04:18:34 AM Try replacing the second rpcuser with rpcpassword instead.
Hopefully that should do it. kosta |
