Hey all.

I purchased Eckmar's market script from the marketplace and I got the website portion up and running without any issues. I am, however unable to get anything bitcoin related working.

I am using an Ubuntu 16.04 x64 VPS from Digital Ocean. 2 vCPU and 2GB RAM.

I installed bitcoin core on the same server using apt and I have added a bitcoin.conf which is pruning the node and also defines an rpcuser and password. I have also set it as a daemon and server.


My Issue:
----------------

When I start the bitcoin server it works fine, no errors on screen or in the log file in ./bitcoin. I can run bitcoin-cli commands from Putty all day long also with no issues.

In the market script, when I try to get a new address to send btc to or check a balance, that's when it doesn't work. The script is making json / rpc calls using bitcoin-cli but it simply isn't working. Nothing happens and there is nothing that I can see in the logs as to the actual problem. There are no errors.

I am willing to pay someone to help me fix this. I need this script up and running ASAP. Please PM me here if you can help. If you have any ideas to try, please let me know below. I am eager to get this going.
