I m testing ERC20 token contracts. I could be able to create and get back the tokens in the Ropstan test network. When I deploy the same contract.sol in the main network my creator address doe not get any tokens back.. when I run the function transferthe transaction says ERC-20 Token Transfer Failed to complete, check with sender for more information.

This is the contract address: https://etherscan.io/address/0xbda3d86d96eb05a8965d73cb59b12eeeaf2530be

What could be the reason?

I am using remix.

Assuming https://etherscan.io/tx/0xbc402bc9f35e9707675eb427ff40f5e28d673e643132759fc5b1089ed6efcc95 is one of the transactions you're wondering about, the full message is "The ERC-20 Token Transfer might have Failed (ErrCode: unable to locate corresponding Transfer event log), check with sender."

You passed a _to address of 0 and a _value of 0. From the code:

if (balances[_from] >= _value && allowed[_from][msg.sender] >= _value && _value > 0) {
    ...
    Transfer(_from, _to, _value);
    return true;
} else { return false; }

So no Transfer event is fired unless _value > 0, which it isn't.

I assume you didn't really mean to pass 0s as the parameters, so check the code/tool you're using to create the transaction and fix the issue there.

  • thanks.. but how do I have to update this code to just send the all tokens to the creator address?? that's all I want.... Commented Jan 14, 2018 at 17:53
  • I'm not sure what you mean. In the constructor, all tokens are already assigned to the address that created the contract.
