[1] Failed to pack instruction data

[k6c8e4]

Hi everyone,

The question is "What I'm doing wrong?" and getting the error code [1] Failed to pack instruction data.

First of all I'm using uploadMetadata method to upload a image file and get the uri, and it's working well as we can see: This is the result of uploadMetadata method, used as shown in readme documentation:

after this step, I'm grabbing uri and use it to call "create" method like this:

where the uri is the result of uploadMetadata.

in this process I'm signing the transaction, and after that I'm getting the error. Transaction when run create:

The error:

Maybe it's a duplicated topic, but I can't find any opened/closed issue on this error code. Thank you a lot, thank you in advance.

Facing the same issue, have been looking for some kind of reference for 2 days. Would really appreciate any help from the community here.

I'm facing the same issue while minting the nft using the code below on "@metaplex-foundation/js": "0.17.4",

metaplex.nfts()
            .create({uri:"metadata-url.json", name:"nft-name",sellerFeeBasisPoints: 200, creators:[{address:"creator-1", share:0}, {address:"creator-2", share:70}, {address:"creator-3", share:30}]})

The error:

Facing the same issue. It was running yesterday, but it broke today. Not sure the reason here.

The solution was very silly, but here is what worked. While minting I had 0.0xxx SOL in the wallet, making the balance about 1 sol did the job! The confusing part is when I had no SOL in the wallet it gave me a clear error that I don't have the required lamports but not when I had some which were insufficient.
