I also have Bitcoin Core on another machine. Works well but I wanted to also explore Bitcoin Cash.

Hi,

I did hit the same issue. And it looks I have a fix.

With no warranty: While having the BitcoinABC client OFF (not running "bitcoin-qt" and/or not running "bitcoind"), just rename the file peers.dat to something else. Then run the client again. It will download new peers from the network and recreate the "peers.dat" file for you.

Technically looks like 111 code aka ECONNREFUSED means that "No-one listening on the remote address." (source https://linux.die.net/man/2/connect). Then by quick check of the bitcoind documentation the only candidate who caches the peers table is the peers.dat file.


Have fun and enjoy your BCH coins :-)
