Metadiscussion
Is this an bug or a suggestion? The report matches the template of a bug report. I have been reporting these bad error handling as suggestions, but it does not match the template of suggestion. Therefore I am reporting this as a bug, the behaviour is not as expected. The output is not informative.
Expected behavior
I would expect to see an informative error message from the steem backend why the transaction could not be completed. I don't want to have to look in the javascript console or network console to see the error.
- One exception I see is :
delta >= min_update: Steem Power decrease is not enough of a difference.
min_update: 204.781569 VESTS
This needs some explanation, it says the decrease is not enough. I guess I need to do at least 205 vests.
If I raise the amount it says I do not have enough it seems:
available_shares >= op.vesting_shares - delegation->vesting_shares:
Account does not have enough vesting shares to delegate.
These are both cryptic error message and I don't understand them 100% without reading the code.
If I look at my account, it shows that I have delegated most of my vests to utopian and I dont have 205 vests that I could send over.
Vesting shares 300,725.924309 VESTS
Delegated vesting shares 266,316.659252 VESTS
- Another error that occured while trying to power up is that I could not
"4100000 plugin_exception: plugin exception↵Account: h4ck3rm1k3st33m bandwidth limit exceeded. Please wait to transact or power up STEEM
Suggestion for utopian.io
This will be used to create a suggestion for the utopian.io project later but I am going to detail it here as part of a new report.
Actual behavior
