    Neither sparrowwallet (https://github.com/sparrowwallet/sparrow/issues/1471) nor cryptoadvance (https://github.com/cryptoadvance/specter-desktop/issues/2465) is working with REMOTE access from other IP while “miro bitcoin manager” is working on same vm as bitcoind stack (via 127.0.0.1)

    does not make sense with that config params imo.

    and username and password is 100% correctly

    i also added disablewallet=0, does not solve problem

    maybe problem is that it runs via tor? but miro bitcoin manager web gui also runs… (???)

    bitcoin stack i use is Satoshi:27.99.0

    You need to set rpcuser and rpcpassword in bitcoin.conf

    its set you lil genious, otherwise “miro bitcoin manager” would also not run on 127.0.0.1/localhost wtf

    txindex = 1

    proxy = 127.0.0.1:9050 listen = 1 bind = 0.0.0.0

    server = 1 rpcallowip = 0.0.0.0 rpcbind = 0.0.0.0 rpcport = 8332

    rpcuser = ….. rpcusername = …..

    rpcpass = ….. rpcpassword = …..

    wallet = mywallet disablewallet=0

    Cool. I didn’t see it in your screenshot in the original post and 403 is an authentication error. Since you are getting personal for some reason I am going to have to stop helping you and if you violate the comment policy at bitcoin-core/meta again you may be temporarily blocked from the repository.

    Usually the issue tracker is used to track technical issues related to the Bitcoin Core code base.

    General bitcoin questions and/or support requests are best directed to the Bitcoin StackExchange or the #bitcoin IRC channel on Libera Chat, or one of the Bitcoin subreddits, or any other place that you feel is well suited.

    Also, exposing the RPC to a remote over a public network is a security risk, see for example the release notes doc/release-notes/release-notes-0.18.0.md (section rpcallowip)

    Closing this as this issue tracker is not for support questions.

    The comment above indicates some more appropriate venues to ask such support questions.
