Im trying to sign a bitcoin testnet transaction using blockcypher but when I go to send the transaction I get the error:
Error building input: Error generating scriptsig when building transaction: Invalid signature: Non-canonical signature: wrong length marker
Below is the complete code im using to create and sign the transaction
var bitcoin = require("bitcoinjs-lib");
var buffer = require('buffer');
var keys = new bitcoin.ECPair.fromWIF('cMvPQZiG5mLARSjxbBwMxKwzhTHaxgpTsXB6ymx7SGAeYUqF8HAT', bitcoin.networks.testnet);
var newtx = {
inputs: [{ addresses: ['ms9ySK54aEC2ykDviet9jo4GZE6GxEZMzf'] }],
outputs: [{ addresses: ['msWccFYm5PPCn6TNPbNEnprA4hydPGadBN'], value: 1000 }]
};
// calling the new endpoint, same as above
$.post('https://api.blockcypher.com/v1/btc/test3/txs/new', JSON.stringify(newtx)).then(function (tmptx) {
console.log(tmptx);
// signing each of the hex-encoded string required to finalize the transaction
tmptx.pubkeys = [];
tmptx.signatures = tmptx.tosign.map(function (tosign, n) {
tmptx.pubkeys.push(keys.publicKey.toString("hex"));
var SIGHASH_ALL = 0x01;
return bitcoin.script.signature.encode(keys.sign(new buffer.Buffer(tosign, "hex")), SIGHASH_ALL).toString("hex");
});
// sending back the transaction with all the signatures to broadcast
$.post('https://api.blockcypher.com/v1/btc/test3/txs/send', tmptx).then(function (finaltx) {
console.log(finaltx);
}).catch(function (response) {
console.log(response.responseText);
});
}).catch(function (response) {
console.log(response.responseText);
});
This is what it returns in terms of pubkeys, signatures, tosign
pubkeys: Array [ "0280eed82a88edb3c9e303c5bae330c95db41d9f92cafd6081efb6029c6bf38bc6" ]
signatures: Array [ "3044022009823c6cffc38b406322f507c36a3875b52a6151eaea80583821c7a5d1bf776d02203690252f20a4fc9a18350d77adc9c3ef0e6b3c5037dceb623aac38904e7062f701" ]
tosign: Array [ "2ebdbde14f8bc2e6d949832e8dfd026147120ce60ff575c70c06f708be1e8556" ]
As it states and error with the signature I can only think it could be this line
var SIGHASH_ALL = 0x01;
return bitcoin.script.signature.encode(keys.sign(new buffer.Buffer(tosign, "hex")),SIGHASH_ALL,).toString("hex");
Would anyone know what this means? and how to solve it?
