Message

Failed to send transactions$causeMessages

Placeholders (causeMessages) are filled from the error’s context. Paste the base64 argument below to see the real values.

What it means

Early, uncategorised errors: blockhash expiry, nonces, number parsing, and failures to send or sign.

What to do

  • Most of these come from transaction lifecycle helpers. Check the blockhash or nonce you built the transaction with, then the signer and RPC you used to send it.

Decode it locally instead

npx @solana/errors decode -- 12 '<base64 context>'

In development, import from @solana/kit as usual and the full message is thrown. In production the message is stripped to keep bundles small; the error object still carries error.context with the same values this page decodes, and isSolanaError(err, SOLANA_ERROR__FAILED_TO_SEND_TRANSACTIONS) lets you branch on it.
