Bad input data provided to validate_transaction: Codec error
mrcnski opened this issue · comments
I'm trying to run the ocw example but every time I submit a transaction I get:
2021-09-12 14:34:15.755 ERROR txpool-verifier1 runtime: panicked at 'Bad input data provided to validate_transaction: Codec error', /Users/marcin/Sync/Repos/github.com/substrate-developer-hub/recipes/runtimes/super-runtime/src/lib.rs:412:1

This sounds wrong. If you're running the ocw runtime the super-runtime should not be used.
One source of failing transactions is type incompatibility.
Make sure you're using the correct types.json if you're using Polkadot-js to interact with the chain.
(i.e. https://github.com/substrate-developer-hub/recipes/blob/master/runtimes/ocw-runtime/types.json for the ocw runtime)
Thanks. I did specify the ocw runtime -- I followed the instructions in the docs and commented out the super-runtime:
https://substrate.dev/recipes/off-chain-workers/transactions.html
The runtime in the output is:
Native runtime: ocw-runtime-1 (ocw-runtime-1.tx1.au1)
Make sure you're using the correct types.json if you're using Polkadot-js to interact with the chain.
How do I do this? I didn't see this mentioned in the docs.
Yeah, sorry it's not mentioned explicitly.
You copy and paste the contents of the types.json into Settings > Developer (e.g. https://polkadot.js.org/apps/#/settings/developer)
Thanks, that resolved my issue!
It seems is issue is resolved. Closing it now. Please open this issue if there is still any problem. Thanks.
I had a similar problem.
Using the wrong or outdated polkadot.js types via polkadot.js.org.
Resolved it by cleaning and configuring the correct type
