Hi guys,
I am trying to set up the bitcoin development environment on my Mac.
I installed the Bitcoin Core client ( bitcoin-qt ) and also downloaded the
binaries.
I face the following issues and hope you can help me to resolve these:
1) Can't open the configuration file from bitcoin-qt.
I have a configuration file $HOME/Library/Application
Support/Bitcoin/bitcoin.conf
but it's empty.
When I try to open it via bitcoin-qt ( Preferences -> Show configuration
file ) it shows me a popup with an error "Configuration file could not be
opened".
I tried to change the permissions: "chmod 600"...no luck...
2) I can launch bitcoind in -regtest regime.
But when I launch *bitcoin-cli -regtest setgenerate true 101*
I get an error:
> error code: -32601
> error message:
> Method not found
3) If I try *bitcoin-cli getinfo*
I get an error:
> error: Could not locate RPC credentials. No authentication cookie could be
> found, and no rpcpassword is set in the configuration file
> (/Users/..../Library/Application Support/Bitcoin/bitcoin.conf)
Hope you can help me!
Thanks
Best,

setgenerate was removed in 0.13.0. See doc/release-notes/release-notes-0.13.0.md

getinfo is also deprecated or already removed. (Which version did you
install?) But even before that, you should probably heed the warning
and note that you don't seem to have a bitcoin.conf in a place where
bitcoin-cli can find it.
