helium-wallet-rs: error: request error

I am able to create a new wallet but the info command returns:

error: request error                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Caused by:
0: error decoding response body: invalid type: null, expected u64 at line 1 column 108
1: invalid type: null, expected u64 at line 1 column 108

I am using the most recent of the helium wallet cli from this repo (v1.6.9) on windows 10.

I believe it’s the same problem I’m having ( Ubuntu 18.04 ) - 429 api problem

helium-wallet -f xxxxx --format json info

error: request error

Caused by: HTTP status client error (429 Too Many Requests) for url

No, this is a different issue… your 429 issue means you need to upgrade your wallet cli binary

Yes, thanks for confirming… there is a fix in the works

The help command returns pretty brief instructions. Would be helpful if it was more elaborative or docs.helium elaborated more extensively on each command, common errors with such commands, ect. docs.helium does pretty well explaining a few commands.

you install 1.6.9 the same way you installed 1.6.6. You download it from the releases page. This is completely unrelated to this issue. Please take it to Discord for support or open a different Github issue

Thanks for the report @mlg1 and @theisaaclloyd. I’m working towards resolution.
