Install Elektrum Personal Server with Bitcoind V28.0 to a RPI4: Troubleshooting
As a bitcoin fan, you are not alone in trying to set the electrum personal server on Raspberry Pi 4. Despite the popularity of both the electrum and the bitcoind, these two desktop clients can sometimes cause compatibility problems. This article permeates the installation of the Bitcoind V28.0 RPI4 using the electrum personal server.
Prerequisites
Before you get into the installation steps, make sure you meet the following requirements:
- Raspberry Pi 4 (any version)
- Bitcoind v28.0
- Electrum personal server
- Stable internet connection
Step 1: Update and update Bitcoind
To ensure compatibility with the electrum, we need to update and update Bitcoind to the latest version.
`Bash
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt -get update -y bitcoind
`
Step 2: Install the electrum personal server
Now that bitcoind is updated and updated, install the electrum personal server.
`Bash
git clone
CD Electrum-Person
`
Then find the “Conf” directory:
`Bash
CD configuration
`
Copy the contents of the config.json file (or create a new one) and place it in the root directory of the electrum installation.
`json
{{
“server”: {
“ip_address”: “”,
“Port”: “”
}
}
`
Then set the configuration settings:
`Bash
sudo sed -i ‘s/server IP Celda =/server IP Celda = “192.168.1.100”/’ Conf/Config.json
echo “server IP address = \” 192.168.1.100 \ “” >> config.json
`
Step 3: Install Bitcoindot
We need to install the new electrum client.
`Bash
sudo apt-get install -y bitcoincore-electrum
`
Step 4: Configure Bitcoindot
After installation, configure Bitcoind:
`Bash
sudo nano /etc/bitcoind.conf
`
Update the Defute_node parameter with the Raspberry Pi IP address. For example:
`json
Default_node = “192.168.1.100”
`
Step 5: Start the Electrum Personal Server
Start the electrum server:
`Bash
sudo ./electum-personal-server
`
The electrum server must now work off and access if you follow these steps in your browser:
- Open the
http: // localhost/(or the Raspberry PI IP address) to view the electrum interface.
- Enter your password when you are requested by your login.
Troubleshooting Tips
If problems arise during installation or implementation, try the following:
- Check if the
Electrum-Pr-server is installed" package:
Bash
DPKG -S electrum-person-server
`
- Make sure the Bitcoind version is compatible with the electrum. If not, update to the compatible version.
- Check that Raspberry Pi’s network settings are correctly configured.
By following these steps and troubleshooting tips, you must successfully install and run Electrum Personal Server using Bitcoind V28.0 on RPI4. Happy mining!
