cli_wallet crash

[censor-this]

Very new to this, I have a miner up and running by following the windows tutorial (thanks). I'm trying to open up the cmd line wallet and keep getting this:

Logging RPC to file: logs\rpc\rpc.log
Starting a new wallet
1318835ms th_a       main.cpp:154                  main                 ] wdata.ws_server: ws://localhost:8090
0 exception: unspecified
Underlying Transport Error
{"message":"Underlying Transport Error"}
asio  websocket.cpp:439 operator()

{"uri":"ws://localhost:8090"}
th_a  websocket.cpp:668 connect

I'm not sure if I'm missing something in my config file or what. Any direction or links would be great. I couldn't find anything on google, it seems anything with "steem" wants to be auto-corrected to "steam" making it a bit of a pain to search.

Yes, that config file is missing many things that could easily be preconfigured.
The fix for the cli_wallet transport error is to add rpc-endpoint = 127.0.0.1:8090 , and wait unti the blockchain has synced to connect.

My cli wallet.exe opens for a few seconds and closes automatically without giving any error message.
There is no problem with mining so far. I followed the tutorial by @tuck-fheman for windows.

Edit : I ran cli_wallet.exe from commandline and found out the error I receive is as same as the OP's error and adding your value to the rpc-endpoint didn't help. Btw, The miner is already running. Should I stop the miner for the change in configuration to take effect for the wallet?

Yes, you may have to restart after editing the file. Try putting a space in front of the command too, that is how it is in my config file.

Ok, I'll give it a shot.

Edit : It is running now but I get the following message asking to use the set_password method to initialize a new wallet before continuing.

some else now about this? "please use the set_password method to initialize a new walet before continuing"... what command or what can write there?, in the cli_wallet.. i guess that its the final step to start mining.. pls answer this, i gonna pay you! xD

I think you need to enter the following command first
set_password password(or your desired password)
then, use that password to login to wallet
