9 months ago You don't need to generate a certificate, btcd will do that for you. Then you have to specify that in btcwallet when connecting.
Can't listen on [::1]:18556: listen tcp6 [::1]:18556: bind: cannot assign requested address
This probably just means you don't have ipv6 networking enabled within the container but are trying to listen on an ipv6 address.

9 months ago Hi, I don't quite understand. If I don't need generate certificate, then just using the config file: [Application Options] rpcuser=yourusername rpcpass=yourpassword simnet=1 And run btcd --configfile=/path/to/config/file? Then what I should do? I want to create an account for user Alice (or any default account), and create another account for Bob(or any none-default account), generate some blocks (I think 101 blocks will be enough to get some reward BTC tokens, right); then try to send 1BTC token from Alice's wallet address to Bob's wallet address. I think I can use btcctl to get new address, and use btcctl to transfer some tokens. But how to create wallet, I don't know if btcctl can do this or not. Do I have to use btcwallet package? And which version of btcwallet I have to install? Please advise, Thanks,

9 months ago Yes, just start btcd and it will generate its own (self-signed) certificate.
btcd itself doesn't have a wallet (and hence no accounts), you'll need to use an additional software for that. There is btcwallet which does work as a standalone binary (though it is designed and maintained more as a library for other software, such as lnd), see https://github.com/btcsuite/btcwallet#getting-started.
You can also use lnd as an on-chain wallet (ignoring all the Lightning features), as it might have more wallet features out of the box than the standalone btcwallet binary. See https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/tree/master/docker for a docker based tutorial with btcd on simnet.
Going to convert this to a discussion as this sounds like troubleshooting and not an issue with btcd itself.
Hi: I want to test lighting network on Docker image. But I have some issues to set it up. root@60945d60a592:~/.btcd# /root/go/bin/gencerts --host=localhost --directory=/root/.btcd --force root@60945d60a592:~/.btcd# cat btcd.conf [Application Options] rpcuser=yourusername rpcpass=yourpassword simnet=1 root@60945d60a592:~/.btcd# ls -l /root/.btcd/rpc* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 887 Sep 18 20:08 /root/.btcd/rpc.cert -rw------- 1 root root 365 Sep 18 20:08 /root/.btcd/rpc.key root@60945d60a592:~/.btcd# Then I launch btcd daemon to read the config file:
btcd --configfile=/root/.btcd/btcd.conf

From my experience, I can't use openssl to generate any cerficate, since I always get error: root@60945d60a592:~/.btcd# btcctl --rpcuser=rpcuser --rpcpass=regtest --rpcserver=127.0.0.1:18334 getblockchaininfo Post "https://127.0.0.1:18334": x509: cannot validate certificate for 127.0.0.1 because it doesn't contain any IP SANs The certificate generated by openssl did not have IP SAN, it is for sure, I check the certificate, and I can't find any IP SAN; but using gencerts --host=localhost --directory=/root/.btcd --force => This also failed. How to fix this? My enviroment: OS: Windows 10 (22H2); Docker desktop: version: 4.23.0 (latest); btcd version: Version 0.23.3-beta. Btcwallet: Version 0.15.1-alpha I don't know if the btcd needs specific version to work with btcwallet. Any solution for this issue?
