Trying to “Create a simple transaction”
When trying to “Draft the transaction”
I get this error on the bottom left window.
Not sure what the issue is here, please help.
Hi!
it is probably a copy-paste typo, try again and make sure all the \ character was copied.
cardano-cli transaction build-raw \
--tx-in 4e3a6e7fdcb0d0efa17bf79c13aed2b4cb9baf37fb1aa2e39553d5bd720c5c99#4 \
--tx-out $(cat payment2.addr)+0 \
--tx-out $(cat payment.addr)+0 \
--invalid-hereafter 0 \
--fee 0 \
--out-file tx.draft
Wow, thank you! that did it! Legend appreciate the fast response!
@laplasz confused why this worked?
Thought my address was e738734d166ed8c5276f95c3478091665719c8ec51c2d048f9b7bcfb945ef994 and the transaction index 0
no - that is not your address instead it is a transactionHash
your address is needed at tx-out and to sign the transaction
Yes sorry I meant to say transactionHash 
You can see in the above image my transactionHash is
e738734d166ed8c5276f95c3478091665719c8ec51c2d048f9b7bcfb945ef994
and in the guide, it is the same as what you posted
4e3a6e7fdcb0d0efa17bf79c13aed2b4cb9baf37fb1aa2e39553d5bd720c5c99
The guide says to updated it to your own “transactionHash” and when updating it and adding #0 at the end for the TxIn is where the error shows invalid argument
So am I wrong for using my own transactionHash?
yes - the guide is just a demo - so of course you need to adapt your addresses and parameters into the commands to have a successful result
