When I am connected to rpcalpha.tzbeta.net
through tezos-client -l -A rpcalpha.tzbeta.net -S -P 443 config update
I can succesfully call tezos-client activate account alice with <path_to_downloaded_json>
.
But when I connect to my own node an run the same command, I get:
% tezos-client activate account alice with <path_to_downloaded_json> ~ tezos-node
Error:
Unrecognized command.
Try using the man command to get more information.
Usage:
My '~/.tezos-client/config' content when connected to my own node is
{
"base_dir": "/home/troels/.tezos-client",
"node_addr": "127.0.0.1",
"node_port": 9999
}
tezos-client get timestamp
.get balance for
. Are you just testing the node, or do you want to get the balance for a real account on the chain?
