Title: RPC Blockchain.info permission denied
Post by: xazzzz on March 26, 2014, 10:54:35 AM
So I created a wallet with blockchain and everything and i have my bitcoind...somehow when i run this:

./bitcoind -rpcconnect=rpc.blockchain.info -rpcport=443 -rpcssl -rpcuser=YourWalletIdentifier -rpcpassword=YourPassword

i get Error: An error occurred while setting up the RPC port 443 for listening on IPv4: bind: Permission denied

and the same happens if i use port=80..

Pretty new to this whole bitcoin thing  :-[..anyone know how to fix this? Thanks.

I hate to have to ask, but...

You are using your actual blockchain.info wallet identifier and your actual blockchain.info password and not the strings "YourWalletIdentifier" and "YourPassword", right?

Also, you have two factor authentication turned off for the blockchain.info wallet, right?
