What is the exact error did you get?

Did you use this command bitcoin-cli getaddressesbyaccount ""
and you get this error below?

Code:
error code: -32601
error message:
Method not found

Does it seem the account API was removed since Bitcoin Core 0.18.0 version?
Just found the answer from https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/88916/bitcoin-core-getaddressesbyaccount-method-not-found-32601

I created a new wallet file and set a password on a computer without internet access.  But when I want to unlock and extract the private key, it displays "Method not found (core-32601)".  I unlock it like this: walletpassphrase password unlock duration (seconds)
