Metamask-extension: Transaction with Ledger Fails: 'Transaction 54 Failed! [object Object]

Created on 28 Sep 2018  路  2Comments  路  Source: MetaMask/metamask-extension

I have tried to buy artworks on Superrare and on Rare Art Labs with my Ledger Nano S account connected to Metamask.
But when I confirm the transaction on the Metamask pop-up window, I immediately get an error notification: Transaction 54 Failed! [object Object] (or Transaction 55 Failed! [object Object] in the last attempts).

Note that I can sign messages with these sites without any problem (I have to do this to authenticate myself), so the Metamask-Ledger connection is active. But all transactions fail as described above.

I have uninstalled and reintalled Metamask, I have restarted my laptop several times and there is no other application connected to the Ledger.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to Site and buy item
  2. Click on Confirm on the Metamask pop-up window presenting the transaction
  3. Ledger does not request any confirmation
  4. See immediately Chrome notification: Transaction 54 Failed! [object Object]

Expected behavior
I expect a request from Ledger to confirm the transaction on the device in order for the transaction to go through.

Browser details:

  • OS: Windows 10
  • Chrome 69.0.3497.100
  • MetaMask Version 4.12.0
  • New UI

@WXTux Hey there, you might want to check that the Contract data setting of the Ethereum app is set to active.

@deearrdev Thank you! This was the issue. Transactions go through when the Contrat data setting of the Ethereum app is set to 'Yes'.
