using another directory than ~/.tahoe generates error

[canercandan]

Issue: When I am using another directory than ~/.tahoe to create a node and use commands as "tahoe ls" and so on then it generates an error message as follows:

"""Error during HTTP request: 410 Gone UnrecoverableFileError?: the directory (or mutable file) could not be retrieved, because there were insufficient good shares. This might indicate that no servers were connected, insufficient servers were connected, the URI was corrupt, or that shares have been lost due to server departure, hard drive failure, or disk corruption. You should perform a filecheck on this object to learn more."""

Fixed: I forgot to use the option -d to define the BASEDIR of the node. Thx.

Are you sure that you're using the -d or --node-directory option correctly? Remember that this option must be after the command name, and it must be used for all tahoe commands, not just the one you use to start the gateway.

It's also possible that you're using the option correctly, but that the grid you're trying to use when overriding the node directory has some setup problem that the grid referred to by ~/.tahoe doesn't have. For example, the encoding parameters (shares.{needed,happy,total}) for that grid's gateway might be set incorrectly.

If that doesn't seem to be the problem, please attach ~/.tahoe/tahoe.cfg and the tahoe.cfg in the other node directory, and say precisely what command lines you're using.

You're right I forgot to use -d option. Thank you and sorry for disturbing you.
