Instructions for 'Check balance in your stake pool account' not working for me

Staking & Delegation Operate a Stake Pool
1

Per section 3.3 on the page https://github.com/input-output-hk/shelley-testnet/blob/master/docs/stake_pool_operator_how_to.md

I have tried to check the balance in my stake pool account:
export ACCOUNT_ADDRESS=super_secret_account_hash <- that is a real hash masked for safety
./jcli rest v0 account get $ACCOUNT_ADDRESS -h http://127.0.0.1:3100/api

I am getting the following error:

failed to make a REST request
  |-> node rejected request because of invalid parameters
  |-> http://127.0.0.1:3100/api/v0/account/super_secret_account_hash: Client Error: 404 Not Found

I sent ADA from a rewards wallet to that hash and need to check it made it there…

Help.

How can I check that the ADA made it to my stake pool account?

This error means usually means the address you are about to check is empty. This goes hand in hand with your issue posted here: Problems running `createStakePool.sh`

I sent ADA from my Rewards wallet and the transaction posted and took the funds from the rewards wallet. Where did the ADA go? Where do I find the correct stake pool address to send to? I would like to verify that I sent to the correct place.

The address that I sent the ADA to was the value corresponding to the key ADDRESS in the file stakepool_owner_account.txt generated by:

./createAddress.sh account | tee stakepool_owner_account.txt

It has the format addr1...

I can see that the ADA never sent. I will send a smaller amount this time after my jormungandr node is sync’d.

This time it worked. The other ADA I sent went somewhere mysterious.
