Merge #12652: bitcoin-cli: Provide a better error message when bitcoind is not running
8b2ef27 tests: Test connecting with non-existing RPC cookie file (practicalswift) a2b2476 tests: Test connecting to a non-existing server (practicalswift) de04fde bitcoin-cli: Provide a better error message when bitcoind is not running (practicalswift) Pull request description: Provide a better `bitcoin-cli` error message when `bitcoind` is not running. Before this patch: ``` $ killall -9 bitcoind $ bitcoin-cli -testnet echo 'hello world' error: Could not locate RPC credentials. No authentication cookie could be found, and RPC password is not set. See -rpcpassword and -stdinrpcpass. Configuration file: (/root/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf) ``` After this patch: ``` $ killall -9 bitcoind $ bitcoin-cli -testnet echo 'hello world' error: Could not connect to the server 127.0.0.1:18332 Make sure the bitcoind server is running and that you are connecting to the correct RPC port. ``` Tree-SHA512: bb16e1a9a1ac110ee202c3cb99b5d7c5c1e5487a17e6cd101e12dc69e9525c14dc71f37b128c26ad615369a57547f15d0f1e29b207c1b2f2ee4b4ba7105f3433
