Title: [0.1 BTC Bounty] Fix My JSONRPC Bitcoind-PHP Issues Post by: Vortex20000 on February 25, 2015, 01:01:39 AM Hullo!
I've had some problems getting a PHP script using jsonRPCClient to connect to a running bitcoind daemon on another, external server. My bitcoin.conf currently looks like this: Code: server=1 The PHP script is something like this: Code: <?php Debug shows error occurs when jsonRPCClient tries to connect to the server. Either a "Connection timed out." or "Connection refused." error. Bounty goes to the first person to give me a working solution to this problem. Solutions I've Tried Open all ports on netstat. Nope. All open. VPS hoster is not blocking any ports their side. Is it listening? Yup, it is, so this shouldn't be a problem. Code: netstat -nlp | grep 8332 Title: Re: [0.1 BTC Bounty] Fix My JSONRPC Bitcoind-PHP Issues Post by: yogg on February 25, 2015, 01:12:46 AM Hullo!

for the reason of testing... remove Quote rpcallowip=IP.OF.WEB.SERVER IP of webserver will need to be loopback usually, so 127.0.0.1 in most cases. Not the public facing IP.

Quote rpcallowip=IP.OF.WEB.SERVER also IP of webserver will need to be loopback usually, so 127.0.0.1 in most cases. Not the public facing IP. Explain it to a dummy :) --snip-- try to connect this way : $btc = new jsonRPCClient(http://username:password@host:8332); instead of $btc = new jsonRPCClient("http://username:password@host:8332/"); tell me if it changes something :) Will try.

Neither of you guys' solutions works. Thanks for your time, though.

works at all? Title: Re: [0.1 BTC Bounty] Fix My JSONRPC Bitcoind-PHP Issues Post by: Vortex20000 on February 25, 2015, 02:14:49 AM rpcallowip=* In the later version of bitcoind I do believe this is something like:works at all? Code: ::/0 No. It doesn't work. Anyway, I've figured out a fix/workaround. Since I can connect locally, I am hosting a webserver on the VPS as an API to connect to bitcoind. From my site, I can POST/GET to the API and perform operations thus. |
