path is not a valid addons directory

Question

Hello

following the steps in "ODOO 15 DEVELOPMENT ESSENTIALS FIFTH EDITION" I'm trying to add a custom addons folder using a terminal on Ubuntu (wsl), when I run this command:

$ odoo -d 15-library --addons-path="./library,./odoo/addons"

I get this error:

Usage: odoo [options]

odoo: error: option --addons-path: the path './library' is not a valid addons directory

btw folder library exists in my path

thanks in advance for any help

It is solved by running scaffold command in the directory before running the command in the question 😁.
