user4823: Continuing on from this post: Configure esplora to point to the bitcoind servers ip address - Part 2
Trying to run cargo run --release --bin electrs -- -vvv --daemon-dir ~/.bitcoin, but it kept saying - reconnecting to bitcoind: no reply from daemon.
The bitcoin.conf file has a rpcuser and rpcpassword set.  I have set the same username:password in in that format for the .cookie file for electrs.
Any idea why it's not connecting?

EDIT:
More details below:

I then create .cookie file in that location with the rpc username:password and then get this message: "no reply from daemon"


user6693: Have you checked the following:

do you use bitcoin rpc standard port for the network you are using? If not or not sure specify it explicitly with --daemon-rpc-addr 127.0.0.1:8332 
Are you sure the .cookie file is in the default position? Try the explicit option --cookie username:password
Is bitcoind on the same machine? By default only rpc connection from localhost are allowed

If none of the above work, please post log from eletrs
