What was wrong?
os.path.join
seems to add additional backslashes in py3.11 on windows. I couldn't find a reason/changelog explanation, but at least found someone with the same problem: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/76107858/python-3-10-3-11-changes-on-os-path-joinCloses #3058
How was it fixed?
Changed the default path to
r"\\.\pipe\geth.ipc"
. Tested against py3.9, 10, and 11 on Windows 10.Updated docs to match geth.
