On current master branch.
Steps to recreate:
- run
bitcoind -daemon -debug - create the bitcoin.config file as requested
OR
- copy a bitcoin.conf into ~/.bitcoin
...
- start bitcoind with above parameters
- issue an RPC
stopcommand
Result is: error: couldn't connect to server
Server killed, no mention of RPC upon inspecting the logs
I've checked down to 33029bcedd982f80f7e380bff586f3ab644decce with no luck.
Interestingly this is not happening with -testnet
A checkout of current master will reproduce the bug but can post logs if necessary.
