Transactions tutorial: CARDANO_NODE_SOCKET_PATH not set

dorin100 opened this issue · comments

In order to execute the command from step 5 from the Transaction tutorial (https://github.com/input-output-hk/cardano-tutorials/blob/master/node-setup/tx.md) we first need to set the CARDANO_NODE_SOCKET_PATH environment variable

cardano-cli shelley transaction submit \
>      --tx-filepath tx001.signed \
>      --network-magic 42
Lookup of environment variable "CARDANO_NODE_SOCKET_PATH" failed.

Thanks. I noted this issue, but the tutorial wasn't yet ready. I assumed it was because my node wasn't running
