And electrum-server is started correctly?
I have no experience with EC2
I'm starting it and stopping it with the 'start' and 'stop' scripts in ~/src/electrum/server, and seems to run fine and connect when I run a local electrum client. It brings up the transactions and the balances just fine.
What are these two parameters from the electrum.conf server file?
host=localhost (?? Is this correct? Since this is the Electrum server, then isn't this correct?)
password=secret (
This bugs me a lot. Do I just make something up for the password, or is this supposed to somehow be used?)From 'electrum.conf' file:
[server]
host = localhost
#report_host =
native_port=50000
stratum_tcp_port = 50001
stratum_http_port = 8081
stratum_tcp_ssl_port = 50002
stratum_http_ssl_port = 8082
#report_stratum_tcp_port = 50001
#report_stratum_http_port = 80
#report_stratum_tcp_ssl_port = 50002
#report_stratum_http_ssl_port = 443
password = secret
For me, host is set to electrum.be:
Code:
host = electrum.be
Electrum.be resolves to the public ip of my server. In your case, this will resolve to 127.0.0.1 (via /etc/hosts). So this is 1 problem.Password should be set to the password of bitcoin.conf.
