Parity-ethereum: What format must have a password file?

Created on 1 Oct 2017  ·  2Comments  ·  Source: openethereum/parity-ethereum

I'm running:

  • Parity version: v1.7.2-beta-9f47909-20170918/x86_64-linux-gnu/rustc1.19.0
  • Operating system: Ubuntu 16.04 Linux
  • And installed: via installer

Hi. I try to use parity to local ETC wallet. But can't unlock acc by password file.
When i start parity i have recieve this message:

Loading config file from /home/user/parity/config.toml
You might have supplied invalid parameters in config file.
invalid type: string "$HOME/.local/share/io.parity.ethereum/ppp", expected a sequence for key 
`account.password`

What format must have a password file?
Thnx.

echo "mypassword" > passwordfile should do the trick, i.e. just a simple file containing your password on a single line.
