clique not mining any txs, block author is 0x00

[nolash]

Running the following command (private key matches address)

build/nimbus --rpc=true --log-level=TRACE --custom-network=/home/lash/tmp/noconfig.json --data-dir=/home/lash/tmp/n --engine-signer=0xeb3907ecad74a0013c259d5874ae7f22dcbcc95c --import-key=/home/lash/tmp/n/pk.txt

Genesis config is https://g33k.holbrook.no/67f69a5f

Maybe I've messed up the config somehow, but I send transactions to the node, eg:

{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": "aee5964c-7438-4a59-80ef-51e737fb0d94", "method": "eth_sendRawTransaction", "params": ["0xf86580843b9aca008252089449aa013a7e3dee25e9032c3dec5c1a582bbaed940a80820119a0fe52cb0f505be80f194a76ce001447a6c2a2249d7b240f9553c4a59ef609eb94a072998ebea4c2eb7b9f488f5e5954c8cde5c691f54fc8736d7644985c2cf07f70"]}

{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":"aee5964c-7438-4a59-80ef-51e737fb0d94","result":"0xf5e4daa21ecba8f7643f6c214dcf7d8c5433dec92b7bef37a1aa9c318f74e223"}

but then:

{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":"c7c29ddc-77ef-4532-9f7b-4a83348da5bd","result":null}

["0xc", true] if you want to get transaction from a block.

zero-address as "author"

Clique only use miner field if the protocol want to vote-in or vote-out a signer. otherwise it should be zero.

eth_getTransactionByHash return null

not sure why
