Title: Set up payment gateway? Post by: BitPorium on April 30, 2011, 11:15:46 AM I hhave been at it for like 5 hours.i can't get word press e-commerce to work with the bitcoin payment type.alerts get an error saying server is unavailable.when I run it locally it works, but I can't get connections from internet.i have tried turning off firewall, direct different ports, nothing works. Any ideas? Am I doing something wrong?
Title: Re: Set up payment gateway? Post by: Alex Beckenham on May 09, 2011, 07:10:04 PM I'm also trying to figure this out. I understand how to do port-forwarding etc at home, but don't know how that works on a server.
When I first set up I was getting 50+ connections, then lately only 8, right now 0. Title: Re: Set up payment gateway? Post by: BitPorium on May 12, 2011, 07:59:25 AM I got this issue fixed. My web servers firewall blocked all outbound connection. I added my ip and port to the exceptions and it worked fine. Most hosting providers have a similar setup. I currently have my bitcoin server at my house, On a laptop(Battery BAckup LOL!) with my router setup with port forwarding, everything works great. If you need any help let me know!

My fix involved emailing my host and asking them in plain english to allow 8333 through the firewall. Was done in a matter of minutes, and I've had no problems since. |
