Error creating state directory: .babylond folder created in /root despite specified home directory #631

Open meetrick opened 4 months ago

meetrick commented 4 months ago

Summary of Bug

Even if I specify a home directory when executing the babylondcommand, the .babylond folder is still created in the /root directory. However, the actual data is stored in the specified home directory. If I prevent the creation of the folder by adding touch /root/.babylond, the babylond command will fail because it cannot create the folder.

Version

Steps to Reproduce

  1. touch /root/.babylond
  2. babylond or added home flag
  3. get error as below

## Anticipated Issues:
- The coexistence of the specified `home directory` and the default `/root/.babylond` directory can cause confusion for users. This poses significant risks in terms of node management.
