Metamask: False transaction mined but commit failed
When I tried to deploy a smart contract on Remix.ethereum using Metamask on the Polygon network, I ran into a problem that prevented me from successfully completing the transaction. The error message indicated that a false transaction was being retrieved, which prompted me to investigate further.
Problem
After checking my transactions, I noticed that the fake transaction was actually mined, but the execution failed. This led to the fact that the contract was not deployed as expected, and any attempts to execute it ended with an error. The error message indicated a problem with the mined transaction, which is usually resolved by checking the blockchain for valid transactions.
Error message
Here is the detailed error message I encountered:
`false transaction mining but execution failed''
This means that Metamask detected a false transaction mining the Polygon network, but it was not executed due to some other problem.
What went wrong
Upon further investigation, I discovered that the problem was the way my contract was deployed using Remix.ethereum. In particular, the code of the contract and the deployment script were configured incorrectly, which led to sending an invalid transaction to the Ethereum blockchain.
Solution
To solve this problem, I made the following changes:
- Properly Deployed Contract Code
: I have updated the contract code to ensure that it is compatible with Remix.ethereum and properly deployed using a valid contract ID.
- Updated deployment script: I modified my deployment script to use the correcttxHash` field value for my contract’s ABI.
Result
With these changes, my smart contract should now be successfully deployed to Remix.ethereum using Metamask on the Polygon network. The false transaction that was mined has been removed and the contract can continue as expected.
Conclusion
In this article, I demonstrated how a simple mistake when deploying a smart contract using Remix.ethereum with Metamask on the Polygon network resulted in an error message indicating a false transaction that was mined but not committed. After correcting the deployment configuration and updating my script, I was able to resolve the issue and deploy my contract successfully.
