I have a simple meteor app that is running on a local node on a private chain. I am attempting to send some ether from one test account to another, and I get the following error, from inside the getR() function. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
Error: common: unmarshalJSON failed: hash must be exactly 32 bytes(…)?
here is the getR() function, please see full code snippet below for context:
var getR = function() {
console.log(window.transactionHash);
web3.eth.getTransactionReceipt(window.transactionHash, function(err, receipt){
console.log(err);
console.log(receipt);
// document.getElementById("response2").innerHTML = receipt.transactionHash;
});
};
* inside of the this function err returns the error stated in the title, and the receipt object is null.
<body>
<h3>Account</h3>
<p id="account"></p>

<p id="balance"></p> ether
<button id="sendEther" onclick="sendSomeEther()">Send 1 Ether</button>
<p id="response"></p>
<button id="getR" onclick="getR()">What Happened!</button>

<script type="text/javascript">
window.web3 = new Web3();
window.transactionHash = '';
alert(window);
var getR = function() {
console.log(window.transactionHash);
web3.eth.getTransactionReceipt(window.transactionHash, function(err, receipt){
console.log(err);
console.log(receipt);
// document.getElementById("response2").innerHTML = receipt.transactionHash;
});
};
function sendSomeEther(){
var txObject = {

value: web3.toWei(12, 'ether'),
to: 'ac97d0feb8b4b3bcaa2b153dff1d4eaa5b4bee9c'
};
web3.eth.sendTransaction(txObject, function(err, result){
if(err)
return document.getElementById("response").innerHTML = 'Error: ' + err;
document.getElementById("response").innerHTML = 'Yay, first one! transaction hash:' + result;
window.transactionHash = result;
});
};
web3.setProvider(new web3.providers.HttpProvider('http://localhost:8545'));
web3.eth.getAccounts(function(err, accounts){
web3.eth.defaultAccount = accounts[0];
document.getElementById("account").innerHTML = accounts[0];
web3.eth.getBalance(accounts[0], function(err, balance){
document.getElementById("balance").innerHTML = web3.fromWei(balance, 'ether');
});
});
</script>
</body>
