Cardano-cli query utxo getting error "unexpected key"

English Community Technical Support
#1

I’ve followed the Cardano guide to run my own node in Windows 10, and though the node seems to be running well (my “db” is now close to 15GB) whenever I try to query it, I get an error. My command is:

cardano-cli query utxo ^
     --address addr1myaddress --mainnet

I am getting an error:

cardano-cli: DecoderFailure (Handshake) ServerAgency TokConfirm) (DeserialiseFailure 2 "codecHandshake.Confirm: unexpected key")---

Obviously addr1myaddress is my full Cardano address that I created with the CLI, which created the files: pay.skey, pay.vkey, and pay.addr

Which version of the node are you running?

#3

cardano-node-1.29.0-win64

#4

Sorry, not sure. If no one comes up with a solution maybe you can file an issue at GitHub - input-output-hk/cardano-node: The core component that is used to participate in a Cardano decentralised blockchain.

#5

… I suppose you have the latest configuration files? Cardano Configurations

#6

@EpicPants please can you verify cardano-cli --version shows 1.29.0 as well?

#7

This is the output of cardano-cli --version

cardano-cli 1.29.0 - mingw32-x86_64 - ghc-8.10
git rev 71135f5f6aa979843a1753e8cd6c06e085d07444

Also, I just redownloaded the configs, just to make sure that I am using the latest stuff and:

  1. I am still getting the same error when I try to get my account balance
  2. I do not make use of the last 2 configs… didn’t even have them before

For clarity, this is my “run node” command:

cardano-node run ^
   --topology configuration/mainnet-ci/mainnet-topology.json ^
   --database-path db ^
   --socket-path db/node.socket ^
   --host-addr 127.0.0.1 ^
   --port 3001 ^
   --config ./configuration/mainnet-ci/mainnet-config.json

I am not seeing any errors in the command line when I run the node.
