Problem

I’m trying to open a node for queries. I’m currently building somethin wich requiere http connectin to this cluster node.

But when I had the possibility to listen for rpc, the controller fail for any valable reason.

So when i remove

    --rpc-listen-on 192.168.1.9:9944 \
    --rpc-cors all \

all work, but if those option are set, then logs loop on this.

Beside this, the node work fine, and queries does the job, only the cluster is failing.

We discussed about it here Discord

Let me know if you need more info.

Try adding --rpc-methods unsafe as in Docker example here: Install | Farm from Anywhere

The reason is that by default it listens on localhost (127.0.0.1) and allows unsafe requests there, but for anything else unsafe requests are denied by default, hence the error.

Make sure to not expose such endpoint publicly though.
