So I just reinstalled wallet on ubuntu 14.04. When I try to unlock for staking i get this
Error: RPC server was not started, use server=1 to change this. (code -18)
Any ideas? Never used to do that on the original installation
in my humble opinion the issue might be...
after reinstalling your .conf file is either no longer working or absent.
recieving a rpc call on a wallet that is not running as a daemon or in server mode or not even listening on the specific rpc port will not allow you to have communications with the wallet other then directly working with the QT or the daemon from a terminal
adding this to your Bigup.conf file should fix the issue
server=1
daemon=1
listen=1
rpcuser=your_user_name
rpcpassword=your_password
rpcport=61608
port=61609
rpcallow=192.168.1.* "this is for your local network access please adjust if needed "
