Error: Please set rune path for node index 1 in RTL-Config.json!

[bitecorner]

Hello,

When I try to run
node rtl under user rtl:rtl, no root access
I placed the macaroon file in home rtl and write the path in the config file as follow
my lightning node running under lightning:lightning
I am facing this issue about the rune path ???
Any idea what i did wrong ? and how i could fix this ?
Bets regards
Jorge.

Here is my config file RTL-Config.json as follow :
{
"MultiPass": "XXXXXXXXX",
"port": "3000",
"defaultNodeIndex": 1,
"SSO": {
"rtlSSO": 0,
"rtlCookiePath": "",
"logoutRedirectLink": ""
},

{
"index": 1,

"configPath": "/home/lightning/.lightning/config"
},

@bitecorner Please note that RTL 0.15.0 is a major update which migrated RTL from c-lightning-REST to clnrest plugin. It will require working clnrest plugin on core lightning, a valid rune saved in the file and RTL-Config changes with rune details.

hi there
same issue here:

Should I fix a path in this json? If yes, where and how?

export class ConfigService { constructor() { this.platform = os.platform(); this.hash = crypto.createHash('sha256'); this.errMsg = ''; this.directoryName = dirname(fileURLToPath(import.meta.url)); this.common = Common; this.logger = Logger; this.setDefaultConfig = () => { const homeDir = os.userInfo().homedir; let macaroonPath = ''; let configPath = ''; let channelBackupPath = ''; let dbPath = ''; switch (this.platform) { case 'win32': macaroonPath = homeDir + '\\AppData\\Local\\Lnd\\data\\chain\\bitcoin\\mainnet'; configPath = homeDir + '\\AppData\\Local\\Lnd\\lnd.conf'; channelBackupPath = homeDir + '\\backup\\node-1'; dbPath = homeDir + '\\database\\node-1'; break; case 'darwin': macaroonPath = homeDir + '/Library/Application Support/Lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet'; configPath = homeDir + '/Library/Application Support/Lnd/lnd.conf'; channelBackupPath = homeDir + '/backup/node-1'; dbPath = homeDir + '/database/node-1'; break; case 'linux': macaroonPath = homeDir + '/.lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet'; configPath = homeDir + '/.lnd/lnd.conf'; channelBackupPath = homeDir + '/backup/node-1'; dbPath = homeDir + '/database/node-1'; break; default: macaroonPath = ''; configPath = ''; channelBackupPath = ''; dbPath = ''; break; } const configData = { port: '3000', defaultNodeIndex: 1, dbDirectoryPath: dbPath, SSO: { rtlSSO: 0, rtlCookiePath: '', logoutRedirectLink: '' }, nodes: [ { index: 1, lnNode: 'Node 1', lnImplementation: 'LND', Authentication: { macaroonPath: macaroonPath, configPath: configPath }, Settings: { userPersona: 'MERCHANT', themeMode: 'DAY', themeColor: 'PURPLE', channelBackupPath: channelBackupPath, logLevel: 'ERROR', lnServerUrl: 'https://127.0.0.1:8080', fiatConversion: false, unannouncedChannels: false } } ] }; if ((process?.env?.RTL_SSO && +process?.env?.RTL_SSO === 0) || configData.SSO.rtlSSO === 0) { configData['multiPass'] = 'password'; } return configData; };

@n-e-t-d-i-v-e-r Hey, the solution is also same :).

RTL's v0.15.0 release is a major integration upgrade and a breaking change for its integration with Core Lightning.
With this release c-lightning-rest integration has been removed and RTL now uses core lightning’s native CLNRest plugin to communicate with the core lightning backend.

You can check more details in release notes at 0.15.0.

To know more about clnrest and how to enable it on CLN, you can check clnrest documentation.

Finally once the clnrest is working on your core lightning node, you need to:

1: Create a new rune or use an already existing one.

2: Create a new file where the content of the file must be LIGHTNING_RUNE="".

3: Update your lnServerUrl with the clnrest url.

4: Remove macaroonPath from RTL-Config.json for your CLN node.

5: Add runePath with path of the folder including filename which contains the rune for the node (from step 2).
