ITX infinite replay

Bugs
1

Hey there,

I’ve been testing out Infura ITX today and while the documentation/tutorial works really well, it seems that the service is sending over and over my transaction toward my contract (SimpleStorage).

I replayed only 3 transactions:

But ITX has been replaying over and over (like an infinite loop) one of my transactions (see contract 0x1a302d180ef2e945c7c82691dd484d067bc4a03b on ropsten)

At the same time, it seems like my balance is proportionally decreasing

Before potentially moving to production with ITX, I’ll need to understand what’s going on here :slight_smile:

Thanks a lot!

Hi Greg,

We noticed this on the ITX side. Your transaction data was:

0x6057361d000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000A

The “A” at the end should be encoded as lower-case, but it is upper-case. ITX expects the transaction data to be all lower-case and as a result it triggered an unforeseen bug in ITX :sweat_smile:. We fixed the bug in the production instance after discovering it. I also topped up your gas tank with Ropsten ETH.

Wow ! That was an unexpected exception. Glad it did happen on Ropsten and not on Mainnet.

Anyway, thanks for fixing this, I will do some more tests on Ropsten.

By the way, thanks for the Free Ropsten ETH :grin:

Greg
