I configured and set-up the litecoin daemon using this tutorial (it's identical to the Bitcoin daemon): https://forum.litecoin.net/index.php?topic=43.0
All is fine, but, when I try to send a command to it remotely via the code below (thesite.com is replaced with my actual IP, same with user:pass)
$litecoin = new jsonRPCClient('http://user:[email protected]:8332/');
echo $litecoin->getinfo();
In my litecoin.conf file, I have:
rpcallowip=1.1.1.1
rpcallowport=8332
server=1
daemon=1
rpcuser=user
rpcpassword=pass
It returns this error:
Warning: fopen(http://[email protected]:8332/): failed to open stream: Connection refused in /var/www/html/gawk/jsonRPCClient.php on line 132 Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'Unable to connect to http://user:[email protected]:8332/' in /var/www/html/gawk/jsonRPCClient.php:140 Stack trace: #0 /var/www/html/gawk/index.php(27): jsonRPCClient->__call('getinfo', Array) #1 /var/www/html/gawk/index.php(27): jsonRPCClient->getinfo() #2 {main} thrown in /var/www/html/gawk/jsonRPCClient.php on line 140
It works when I send commands locally (from the server that hosts the daemon), but I NEED to be able to send commands remotely.
I'm using the JSON-RPC Class below:
