Background

In the developer tutorial on https://dev.lightning.community/tutorial/01-lncli/index.html in the section Working with lncli and authentication, the command to create and get info of a wallet has the wrong macaroon path. It has the path --macaroonpath=data/admin.macaroon instead of the right path: --macaroonpath=data/chain/bitcoin/simnet/admin.macaroon:

Your environment

  • version of lnd: 0.5.0 beta
  • which operating system (uname -a on *Nix): Ubuntu
  • version of btcd, bitcoind, or other backend: 0.12.0 beta

Steps to reproduce

Expected behaviour

  1. Create Wallet
  2. Get information about the lightning connection.

Actual behaviour

[lncli] unable to read macaroon path (check the network setting!): open data/admin.macaroon: no such file or directory

Notes

This issue is a duplicate of the one on the lnd repository: lightningnetwork/lnd#1891

Should be fixed now as part of the latest rendering.
