Troubleshooting: “Input ID Account Not Found” Error in Solana Wallet
Hi there!
I am currently writing a tool that allows me to buy/sell/exchange Tokens on the Solana blockchain. Buying (swap SOL for any Token) “seems” to work, I get the Tokens in my wallet, and the process is smooth. However, when I used the same token swap feature to sell some Tokens, I encountered the error: “Input ID Account Not Found”.
This error message may seem confusing at first, but don’t worry, it is a relatively common problem that can be easily resolved with some troubleshooting steps.
What does the error message mean?
The “Input ID Account Not Found” error message indicates that your wallet cannot find a free input account (i.e., a Solana network account) for one of your transaction IDs. This could be due to a few reasons:
- The token exchange feature did not work properly and no input accounts were added.
- There was an issue with the wallet blockchain mode that prevented it from finding the required input account.
How to fix the problem?
To fix the error, try the following steps:
- Check your transaction history: Review your recent transactions to ensure that the token exchange feature has not been misused.
- Check input accounts: Make sure that all input accounts have been added correctly. If you are using multiple accounts for a single transaction, make sure that each account is set as an input account in the Transaction Settings section of your wallet.
- Retry the transaction
: Try retrying the transaction using the same token exchange feature to see if the issue resolves itself.
Additional tips
- Make sure that you have sufficient funds in all relevant accounts before attempting to exchange the token.
- If you are encountering frequent errors, it may be worth checking if there are any issues with your wallet’s blockchain state or network connection.
- Consider using the Solana CLI tool to manage your transactions and wallets, which can help you identify and resolve issues more effectively.
By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the “Input token account not found” error and continue using your Solana wallet to buy, sell, and exchange tokens.
