Bitcoin Client Software and Version Number: Bitcoin core V25.0.0
Operating System:Windows 10

Description of Problem:

Hi all,

I'm trying to connect my HW wallet to Electrum, Electrum to an Electrum personal server and the personal server to my BTC node.
So far I've managed to get the "listening to Electrum wallet" output from my EPS, which makes me think that I've succeeded in running EPS and linking my EPS to my node (screenshot 1).
Problem is that my Electrum wallet can't seem to connect to my EPS (screenshot 2).
I've tried changing ports, changing machines (running Electrum on another desktop), even added a line to the properties of my Electrum shortcut (screenshot 3).

My node, EPS and Electrum wallet are all on the same machine.

Can someone help me? I really don't know what I'm doing wrong here.

Thanks in advance!

Have you added your Electrum wallet's master public key in your EPS' "config.ini" file?

You can get it from Electrum menu "Wallet->Information" and paste it in the config in this format:
Code:
my_electrum_wallet = xpub.......
(remove the "#" from the sample)

Then restart EPS.

Have you added your Electrum wallet's master public key in your EPS' "config.ini" file?
If it was a problem with an incorrect or missing xpub, then Electrum would connect but then the EPS window would throw errors about the addresses being incorrect.

It looks like everything is set up correctly by OP, so I suspect the issue might be the expired certificates bug. See here for an explanation and a fix: https://github.com/chris-belcher/electrum-personal-server/issues/286

If that doesn't work, then at the top of the EPS window it should tell you where it is logging to. Find that file and examine it for errors. Similarly, enable logs in Electrum, and then examine that file for errors too.

I did. I added it under the section [master-public-keys].
When I start my EPS it show the three first wallet addresses.
I didn't include them in my screenshot for privacy reasons, but my wallet master public key is for sure in the config.ini file.

Changing the certificates did the trick! Thank you so much!
