I'm using Geth to set up a private ethereum network and this is the command: 

$ geth --identity "MyTestNode" --datadir "SomeDir" init genesis.json --rpc --rpcaddr "localhost" --rpcport "8000" --rpccorsdomain "*" --port "30303" --nodiscover --ipcapi "admin,db,eth,debug,miner,net,shh,txpool,personal,web3" --rpcapi "db,eth,net,web3" --autodag --networkid 1900 --nat "any" console

But I'm getting that -rpc is provided but not defined and I don't know if everything else is correct.

    The init and console are geth commands, you can only use once per geth invocation. You should split your command in two invocations: geth [params] init genesis.json, and then geth [other params] console

In GETH service the init and console are commands, you can't execute them togueter. you should use the init first then the console

rpc is replaced by http in stable version

With all rpc options replaced by their http equivalent:

--rpc => --http

--rpcapi => --http.api

--rpccorsdomain => --http.corsdomain
