bitcoin-cli Method not found | Bitcointalksearch.org

Hello.

I am trying to use bitcoin-cli to get data from blockchain. I changed my datadir to another drive, and deleted all files from the default datadir location (in my case %appdata%/Bitcoin). I am running bitcoind with txindex option and with datadir parameter. I created new bitcoin.conf, where I wrote datadir, rpcuser and rpcpassword parameters. Bitcoind runs just fine and it reads the correct config file.

However when I try to run

Code:

bitcoin-cli getinfo

I get

Quote

error: Authorization failed: Incorrect rpcuser or rpcpassword

even though I run bitcoin-cli with parameters -rpcuser and -rpcpassword with the same values that I wrote into the configuration file. I even add the parameter -conf with the path to the configuration file and it still does not help.

What am I doing wrong?

Edit:

Figured that out - I typed wrong path when running bitcoin-cli with the parameter -conf

Now the problem is, that it writes

error code: -32601
error message:
Method not found

I am still trying to run

Code:

bitcoin-cli getinfo

Edit #2:

Nevermind, just discovered, that getinfo was removed from the RPC API, and that commands are case sensitive, so GetBlock is not found, but getblock works just fine. Thread can be deleted.
