Title: How to access bitcoin wallet API via web host Post by: lvyuan95 on June 20, 2014, 12:36:27 AM Hi guys, I want to build a shop with dogecoin and darkcoin payment, I used oscommerce and the bitcoin module (https://github.com/weex/oscommerce-bitcoin). And I filled my own PC's IP on 'RPC host IP', and I'm pretty sure the conf file was set appropriated. But the thing is, the there is always something wrong on check out page, says 'failed to open stream: Connection refused in balabala'
Help please :-\ Title: Re: How to access bitcoin wallet API via web host Post by: gweedo on June 20, 2014, 12:43:56 AM Sounds like a firewall issue.
But if you just building a shop, why not just have an table in your database, that holds the bitcoin address and only the address. Then you can use a service like mine https://apicoin.io to get the balance of that address, or be notified of when a transaction goes to that address. This is more secure than using a bitcoind, which is way too heavy for this type of action. https://apicoin.io/api/v1/doc/#callbackscript https://apicoin.io/api/v1/doc/#addcallbacks Title: Re: How to access bitcoin wallet API via web host Post by: lvyuan95 on June 20, 2014, 12:51:57 AM Sounds like a firewall issue.

In fact I'm using some altcoin wallets instead of bitcoin, so is there any way I can solve this?
