Title: How to setup Bitcoind with Docker on Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS Xenial Xerus ?
Post by: chegmarco on May 10, 2017, 02:54:02 PM
Hello.
I use Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS (Xenial Xerus).
I already installed the Bitcoind Server via the PPA-Bitcoin.

But my problem is that it fails to connect the PHP JSON-RPC API via 127.0.0.1:8332.

So I would like to know how to start the Bitcoind Daemon after following the instructions given on: https://hub.docker.com/r/kylemanna/bitcoind/ or https://github.com/kylemanna/docker-bitcoind ?

Is it necessary to first remove the Bitcoind Server installed via Ubuntu PPA / Bitcoin before following the instructions of the link: https://hub.docker.com/r/kylemanna/bitcoind/ or https://github.com/kylemanna/docker-bitcoind ?

And how to start the Bitcoind Daemon after following the instructions given on: https://hub.docker.com/r/kylemanna/bitcoind/ (https://github.com/kylemanna/docker-bitcoind) ?

How to define the Bitcoin.conf connection file with Docker ?

Thank you in advance.
