  • Glad you got it sorted out. Please come back after 48 hours and accept your own answer :-) – Richard Horrocks Jul 11 '17 at 16:18
  • Did you pass the words between quotation? I couldn't make it work either way (with and without). I keep getting eth_getBlockByNumber in testrpc. – Felipe Martins Melo Sep 8 '17 at 14:28

    This eth_getBlockByNumber does not seem to be wrong. I put the words in quotation marks. Afterwards I could import the additional accounts in MetaMask using the private keys. – Peter Kirchner Sep 21 '17 at 1:58

You can also try this:

  • Run testrpc in your command line and then copy the output mnemonic displayed below the account addresses and private keys.
  • Use the copied mnemonic as the seed phrase while logging in the metamask and you will be provided with accounts[0] of testrpc as default account.
  • You can also add other 9 accounts by importing them using their private keys.
