Title: RESOLVED: bitcoind on Windows Server 2012 x64. "this app can't run on your PC" Post by: skyrunner on March 28, 2014, 08:14:52 AM After blockchain.info API 2 week outage, I've decided to try running bitcoind and monitoring accounts myself. I want users to pay and instantly know that payment was received.
I installed bitcoin core on Windows Server 2012 x64 (Azure) and tried bitcoind listreceivedbyaccount xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -rpcuser=xxxx -rpcpassword=xxxxxxx but there was a system message "this app can't run on your PC" I was planning to use https://github.com/GeorgeKimionis/BitcoinLib When I run Cosole app, I get the same "this app can't run on your PC" message Any ideas?

Getting "this app can't run on your PC" Post by: doof on March 28, 2014, 10:52:06 AM Ive been doing a similar thing (2012 on azure) and an MVC front end. I don't use that wrapper tho. No issues here.
Are you running bitcoind as a service or just in console? Title: Re: bitcoind on Windows Server 2012 x64. Getting "this app can't run on your PC" Post by: skyrunner on March 28, 2014, 01:55:39 PM so how do you use it? can you please explain or point to some tutorials?
when I run bitcoind -daemon it tells me "this app can't run on your PC" and if I run bitcoin-cli listreceivedbyaccount 1XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX it tells me error: couldn't connect to server Title: Re: bitcoind on Windows Server 2012 x64. Getting "this app can't run on your PC" Post by: Ayakashi on March 29, 2014, 12:24:28 AM skyrunner did you download the 64 bit version of the Windows installer (https://bitcoin.org/bin/0.9.0/) or 32 bit?
I'm running bitcoind on an Azure virtual machine, but I chose Ubuntu. Before I settled on Linux, I did create a Windows 2012 vm as you did and didn't encounter any issues. But this was with the x86 version of Bitcoin 0.8.6. Title: Re: bitcoind on Windows Server 2012 x64.

"this app can't run on your PC" Post by: kwilliams on March 30, 2014, 07:56:31 AM The short answer is you have to walk the entire chain & collect outputs pointing to your address. This would likely take hours
