I’m updating my pledge based on the coincashew guide, and am using the latest node version (1.25), and get the below error (some data redacted). I’ve included the commands and output:

Create a stake pool registration certificate

Any ideas??

Hello,

U need to provide the hash of the metadata file not the name

8.2. Get the hash of your metadata JSON file:

This validates that the JSON fits the required schema, if it does, you will get the hash of your file.

cardano-cli shelley stake-pool metadata-hash --pool-metadata-file pool_Metadata.json >6bf124f217d0e5a0a8adb1dbd8540e1334280d49ab861127868339f43b3948af

Cheers,

Thanks I did that, and the hash gets saved into poolMetaDataHash.txt

Then the command for this part is:

#4

You need to enter the hash

  • shelley sub-command is deprecated, don’t use it anymore
#5

The command I’m using to generate hash is:

cardano-cli stake-pool metadata-hash --pool-metadata-file poolMetaData.json > poolMetaDataHash.txt

So I dont think it’s depreciated.

no man, I’m speaking about shelley subcommand from the example provided…
