Understanding the “Execution Reversed” Error on Solana
As a newbie to the Bullx platform, you’re probably frustrated when trying to sell your tokens. One error message that can make this process even more challenging is the “Execution Reversed: TransferHelper: TRANSFER_FROM_FAILED” error. In this article, we’ll break down what this error means and provide guidance on how to resolve it.
What does the “TransferHelper: TRANSFER_FROM_FAILED” error indicate?
The “TransferHelper: TRANSFER_FROM_FAILED” error occurs when the TransferHelper contract on the Solana blockchain fails to complete a transaction. This can happen for a number of reasons, including:
- Insufficient gas supply
- Incorrect account balances or wallet addresses
- Issues with the sender’s wallet connection (e.g. network errors)
- Insufficient funds for the transaction
When does this error occur?
The “TransferHelper: TRANSFER_FROM_FAILED” error typically occurs when you try to sell tokens using the Bullx platform, especially in scenarios where:
- You purchased a token with insufficient funds
- The recipient’s wallet is not connected or has low funds available
- There are issues with network connections or wallet authentication
How to resolve the “TransferHelper: TRANSFER_FROM_FAILED” error
To resolve this issue, follow these steps:
Step 1: Check your token balances and account balances
Make sure you have sufficient funds in the token you purchased on Bullx.
Make sure you have sufficient funds in the recipient’s wallet account using a verified wallet address. If the wallet is not connected or has low funds, you may need to transfer more tokens before selling them.
Step 2: Check transaction details and gas usage
Review the transaction history for errors related to gas usage. Make sure that:
- The sender has sufficient funds for the transaction
- The recipient’s wallet is properly configured and connected to the network
- There are no issues with network connections or wallet authentication
You can use the Solana CLI (Command Line Interface) to check the details of your transaction:
query solana -x "get_balance(0)" -type u64
This command will display your account balance 0. Adjust the address and key accordingly.
Step 3: Check wallet connections
Make sure you have a valid wallet connected to Bullx. If you are using a new wallet, try reconnecting it to check its functionality.
Step 4: Check the network status and gas limits
Make sure your wallet balance is sufficient for the transaction. You can check the available gas limit:
query solana -x "get_balance(0)" -type u64
This command will display the current gas limit for account 0. Adjust the number accordingly.
Step 5: Perform the transfer manually
If the issue persists, you may need to perform the transfer manually using a different method (e.g. using the Bullx API). Make sure to follow best practices when performing transactions manually.
