"code": -32603, "message": "Internal error"

[tymur999]

Git cloned latest build and ran cargo run --release. No errors.

Sending a transaction yields this.

{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "error": {
        "code": -32603,
        "message": "Internal error"
    },
    "id": 2
}

The transaction in question is this

        "method": "sendTransaction",
        "params": [

            {

            }
        ]
}

This is a random transaction pulled from scraping data. Obviously the blockhash has expired, but that shouldn't matter since preflight is set to false. It is a valid transaction otherwise.

Sent via Helius and it succeeded. Also a valid transaction in https://explorer.solana.com/tx/inspector

Using Helius public RPC as RPC_ADDR and WS_ADDR
Nothing useful in metrics but will post it anyway

One interesting thing is why literpc_txs_in_store is 143927. Only sent one transaction. And it doubles every 5-10 secs.

Postnote: If there was a dedicated production build that would be great. It seems that there are bugs introduced when pushing to master.
Didn't get this error when tried around 2 months ago.

Same error with sending a fresh transaction that didn't have blockhash expiry.

[tymur999]

Found the error. It should be specified in the docs that only base58 transactions are supported. This would save a lot of time.
