Bitcoin core RPC password

Open pox opened this issue 8 months ago • 0 comments

The UI seems to indicate that the bitcoin node running inside Umbrel is accepting RPC connections:

Yet rpcpassword is not defined in the bitcoin node's config... Is RPC actually enabled?

When I exec into the bitcoin core container the password is nowhere to be found. e.g. bitcoin-umbrel.conf does not have RPC enabled. This is regardless of the values of the 'Public REST API' advanced setting. Same if it's on or off.

If RPC is disabled by design, as issue #506 seems to indicate, then why is the UI telling a different story?
