Describe the issue

I installed bitcoin-cli and try to run through command-prompt, I got an error: couldn't connect to server: EOF reached (code 1) (make sure server is running and you are connecting to the correct RPC port

Screenshots.

What version of bitcoin-core are you using? v0.14.2

Machine specs:

• OS:Windows 100
• CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)i3-6098P CPU @ 3.60GHz 3.60GHz
• RAM: 8GB
• Disk size:1TB
• Disk Type (HD/SDD):SSD

According to bitcoin-cli -help there is no "-discover" option. What are you trying to achieve?

i m trying to get info about bitcoin-core node and it still trow same error.

Make sure the server is running. Try bitcoind -help.

sorry to ask i m totally new on bitcoin,how to find server is running or not? and can i solved this error

The server is running when you start the gui with the -server option specified or when you start the daemon.

@vinyyoo this is an issue tracker for the bitcoin core software. I suggest you try irc #bitcoin, bitcoin.org or bitcoin.stackexchange.com if you need technical help.

I have the same issue with running bitcoind on my raspberry with the command bitcoin-cli getblockchaininfo

error: couldn't connect to server: unknown (code -1) (make sure server is running and you are connecting to the correct RPC port)

After adding the command bitcoind -server, I got another error message with:

error code: -28 error message: Loading block index...

But after a few seconds I got the first error again.

Thx!
