So i open up the ruby software and paste in ?
feathercoin-qt -server -rpcpassword=some-password -rpcport=8332
I just get syntax error
Nope, not the Ruby software, the Windows command prompt or Linux terminal.
I just get another error, not recognized as an internal or external command etc
You need to navigate to the directory first.
The folder you're currently in is shown before the cursor, i.e.
C:\Users\John> _
If you type "cd bitcoins", your current directory would be set to "C:\Users\John\bitcoins". To go back up a directory, type "cd ..", i.e. to "C:\Users\".
You need to set your current directory to the folder where feathercoin-qt.exe is located. If it helps, on my system that folder is C:\Program Files (x86)\Feathercoin.
SP4RK7, I've tested it and I get a similar error. Currently trying to figure out what I've done wrong, will post in here soon.
