RE: Qtum Staking Tutorial using qtumd on a Raspberry Pi 3 by lorenzomyle

qtum · @lorenzomyle · Sep 26 '17

I cant connect to my wallet using qtum-cli :
$ ~/qtum-wallet/bin/qtum-cli getinfo
error: couldn't connect to server: unknown (code -1)
(make sure server is running and you are connecting to the correct RPC port)


I know nothing about .cookie so I don't know what to do. Any help?

properties (22)

The .cookie file gets created in the datadir (by default under `~/.qtum`) when `qtumd` starts up and RPC is enabled. You probably don't have `qtumd` running -- you can use `$ pgrep -a qtumd` to check (if that outputs nothing, then it isn't running).
