Problem with keosd

EOS.IO Asked by Muhzin on August 20, 2021

I have installed EOSIO from https://github.com/EOSIO/eos/releases/tag/v1.4.3

cleos is working properly. But there is something wrong with keosd

cybrosys@cybrosys:~$ cleos wallet create
"/usr/opt/eosio/1.4.3/bin/keosd" launched
Unable to connect to keosd, if keosd is running please kill the process and try again.


cybrosys@cybrosys:~$ keosd

I have done pkill keosd. But still keosd is not running

I have solved it.

What I found is, keosd is running somehow in the system. Find it and kill it. Try the commands below

  • Find PID of the running keosd process

    ps -ef | grep keosd

  • Kill it

    kill -9 pid

    //replace 'pid' with value returned by the first command

  • Run keosd in a specified port(8900)

    keosd --http-server-address=127.0.0.1:8900

Also, make sure that you have eosio-wallet directory and related files in your home directory

Just simplifying answer by @Muhzin, pkill should do the job:

pkill keosd
