Title: bitcoind on centos having issues with install
Post by: sunerok on August 18, 2014, 10:00:16 PM
hey guys, im running a centos 6.5 server, and having issues getting bitcoind to run, and also id like it to run on boot.

i followed the steps here:

https://gist.github.com/janx/10465121

when i got to the last step, (in the bitcoind section)

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/bitcoind/bitcoind/deps/lib ./src/bitcoind

resulted in saying the file or directory did not exist.

i am aware of an issue with secp256k1 regarding centos, so i also did

https://github.com/bitcoin/secp256k1

the last make install command asks me for the password for bitcoind?

any help? will toss a little btc at someone who can get me going.

well i discovered my bitcoind is running, but its asking for a password, which, during installation, was never asked or entered.
