Receiving "cryptogen tool not found. exiting" upon running ./trade.sh generate -c tradechannel

See original GitHub issue

Hello,

After having some difficulty following and executing the commands in the book on my instance of Ubuntu 16.04, I decided to attempt to follow the GitHub documentation. Unfortunately, after running “./trade.sh generate -c tradechannel” inside the network folder, I get:

$ ./trade.sh generate -c tradechannel
Generating certs and genesis block with channel 'tradechannel'
Continue? [Y/n] Y
proceeding ...
cryptogen tool not found. exiting

I believe I followed all of the setup as written, as well, I ran make configtxgen cryptogen configtxlator in the fabric directory, as well as export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/src/github.com/hyperledger/fabric/build/bin to add it to the PATH. To double-check, I ran the make command again and got:

$ make configtxgen cryptogen configtxlator
make: Nothing to be done for 'configtxgen'.
make: Nothing to be done for 'cryptogen'.
make: Nothing to be done for 'configtxlator'.

Is there something wrong I might be doing? Sorry if there’s something obvious I’m overlooking, I am new to using Docker. Thank you!

Hello @VRamakrishna, apologies for not checking the errata page. I looked through the Preface for help, but I guess I missed the part on looking for errata on the official website. I’ve made the edits from the errata, and will let you know how things go soon! Thank you so much for replying so quickly! 😃
