There’s a problem in setting up a p2pool. I’ve tried several times setting up a p2pool, but everytime I started the p2pool, it got stuck at “testing bitcoind p2p connection to ‘127.0.0.1:9336’”. It’s driving me crazy, could someone please help me with that? Thx!
Here is my feathercoin.conf:
server=1
daemon=1
rpcuser=stewart
rpcpassword=password
rpcport=9337
port=9336
rpcallowip=*
And the message after running p2pool is here:
C:\Python27\p2pool-altcoins-master>C:\Python27\python.exe run_p2pool.py --net fe
athercoin -a 6zHUL6pniqpDSWggKnbCxzr2BxdDdkpnu3 -f 0 --give-author 1 --bitcoind-

And it just stop here.
I’ve checked the network connection, and I found that it was trying every local port to connect to port 9336, but it just couldn’t get the connection established. Actually, I ran into this same problem in LTC p2pool, but by using litecoind.exe(in daemon directory) instead of litecoin-qt, I got it solved. However, there is no daemon directory or feathercoind.exe. By the way, my feathercoin client has been updated to FTC 0.8.5-beta3.
