Lotus daemon wont create .lotus directory

[PNetrox]

OS: Ubuntu 20.04
Before all, i used:
export LOTUS_PATH=~/.lotus
I have issue with lotus daemon, when using first time:
lotus daemon
all i got is:
2023/09/21 07:50:40 storess: Query 2023/09/21 07:50:40 storess: q.Prefix: 2023/09/21 07:50:40 storess: q.KeysOnly: true 2023/09/21 07:50:40 storess: q.Filters: 0 2023/09/21 07:50:40 storess: q.Orders: 0 2023/09/21 07:50:40 storess: q.Offset: 0
And /.lotus directory still doesnt exist

Hi @PNetrox

By default it should be .lotus - so it's a hidden repo.
It should be there cd .lotus

Try setting export LOTUS_PATH=/lotusdaemon instead if you don't want the folder to be hidden.

If you still encounter problems, please share more of the logs. Thanks!
