Hey!
peercoind is running and seems to be working just fine when I read debug.log. However, when I try to use peercoin-cli to get some information I always get error: couldn't connect to server. I’ve tried to search a solution for hours but I can’t find anything relevant.
Here is an excerpt of debug.log from the most recent start to the last message:

And here is peercoin.conf:
rpcuser=peercoinrpc
rpcpassword=<yadayada-this-isn't-my-real-password>
rpcport=54454
Something I noticed: there is no mention at all of RPC or 54454 in the log nor does netstat -an show any connections with port 54454, thus I think the RPC server isn’t being started for some reason.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
