Title: Looking for help setting up a faucet. (cannot interact with RPC port) Post by: illiki23 on April 13, 2014, 05:07:28 AM I have been trying to set up a faucet but am having problems interacting with the blockchain using RPC.
It will not let me query the rpc port the coin is using. I have tried a simple getInfo query. I don't know if the port is even open, ss it normal for it to say page unavailable when trying to access the rpc port via a web browser? I am just running the wallet for the coin, which I thought was enough. Do I need to do anything else? Title: Re: Looking for help setting up a faucet.

Also you will not be able to query RPC via a web browser.
