Using cardano-cli and cardano-node version cardano-cli 1.35.0.
Anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks!
Edit: Just found a similar Why might I be getting this MissingVKeyWitnessesUTXOW error? - #2 by ADAfrog. I’ll try to follow the solution and report back here the results
Edit2: I’m still trying to understand how to fix this… the command I used to sign the transaction was the following:
cardano-cli transaction sign \
--tx-body-file tx.raw \
--signing-key-file payment.skey \
--signing-key-file $HOME/cold-keys/node.skey \
--signing-key-file stake.skey \
--mainnet \
--out-file tx.signed

hi,
Usually is something wrong with the skey files.
Try to perform a simple transaction… to send 1 ADA out of the wallet… it is working?

Thanks @Alexd1985.
I’ve never peformed a simple transaction before, do you have any quick pointer tips of the commands to do so? (currently trying to read up on it, might take a while)
OK It submitted, but my Total ADA Balance amount still remained the same (I sent 1 ADA following that guide) so i don’t think it actually went through…?
$ cardano-cli transaction submit \
> --tx-file tx.signed \
> --mainnet
Transaction successfully submitted.
hmm, same, the node is 100% synced?
also can u check the destination wallet? Received 1 ADA ? If yes is from the same address u have inside payment.addr file? It is possible to have more wallets file and u somehow mixed the files?
-
Yes, my node is synced.

Uhh, here’s the destination address when queried:
cardano-cli query utxo \

My payment.addr file starts with addr1.... and the first column of the query result is TxHash so I’m not sure how to confirm if one of those transactions came from me or not
It is possible to have more wallets file and u somehow mixed the files?
I don’t think so, under my cold-keys folder I only have 1 payment.addr, payment.skey, and payment.vkey among my other cold-keys 
UPDATE: @Alexd1985 So i just checked my wallet balance again, and indeed the 1 ADA did go through (it’s 1 ADA shorter now), so submitting a transaction seemd to have worked successfully.
I’m going to retry and create a registration cert one more time and see if it’s still erroring out.
UPDATE2: Yup, submitting the signed transaction still errors out.
Ok so here was the command submitting the one simple transaction (successfully transferred 1 ADA out):
cardano-cli transaction sign \
--tx-body-file tx.raw \
--signing-key-file payment.skey \
--mainnet \
--out-file tx.signed
And here is the command submitting for registering the certificate (produced the MissingVKeyWitnessesUTXOW error:
cardano-cli transaction sign \
--tx-body-file tx.raw \
--signing-key-file payment.skey \
--signing-key-file $HOME/cold-keys/node.skey \
--signing-key-file stake.skey \
--mainnet \
--out-file tx.signed
The suspected culprit is therefore either the node.skey or stake.skey, and I’m not sure exactly how to debug or figure out which is causing the error.
UPDATE: Ok so I found my original backup disk with the original keys and i’ve confirmed that:
-
payment.skey is the same and unmodified
-
stake.skey is the same and unmodified
-
node.skey is DIFFERENT!
At this point, I’m not sure what to do but at least I found the culprit…?
But I still dont’ understand how node.skey is linked to the payment and stake keys… is it?
Is it safe to just recreate a set of new node keys, and then re-create the operational cert and pool cert from it? I don’t see how the node keys relate to the payment and stake keys

[SOLVED]
Finally figured it out, the signed transaction for the registration cert finally went through…
The issue was my node keys were mismatched!
node.vkey - original
node.skey - new
This whole time I thought they were the pair that belonged with eachother, but after finding my original node keys and comparing, I realized that the node.skey was a different one, and probably overwritten the original one.
Solution: I replaced all my node keys with my original one (from my backup flash drive), re-ran the steps to register the stake pool, and now it finally worked!!!

Perfect, then it means the node.skey was somehow corrupted… always keep a bkp
