Figured it out
I finally set up my full node on a Raspberry Pi 2. I'm using an external HD to store the /.bitcoin datadir.
Before when I just ran bitcoind on the SD card, I could do bitcoin-cli getinfo and it would work.
Now when I try to run that command, it seems to be looking in my ~/.bitcoin directory and not finding anything, so it doesn't work. I checked my IP on bitnodes and I confirmed that my node is running.
How do I getinfo when I'm using an external HD?
