I have been chacking around the site for possible solutions but i havent found any that would solve my (probably most basic) error. The account from which i'm sending has around 1 ether and i'm certain that the private key is correct as i had generated a new one and sent ether to it specificly to test is i had incorrect private key. I am using ropsten test network. And possible help would be much appreciated. this is the full source code.
I had written smartcontract, i can call the methods from it, but for the life of me i cannot send a transaction anywhere.
var Tx = require('ethereumjs-tx').Transaction;
const Web3 = require('web3')
const web3 = new Web3(new Web3.providers.HttpProvider("https://ropsten.infura.io/v3/da1b------341c38904ac78bb649502"))
const rawTransaction = {
from : '0x76a9CEA17DbA8a371944d00a2E9A17AA3669B392',
to: '0x17eB191cDc2b3f06c25914c2da041CEeb41e9B16',
value: web3.utils.toWei("0.0001", "ether"),
gasLimit: 200000,
gasPrice: web3.utils.toWei("0.000002", "ether"),
chainid : 3,
network_id: 3
};
web3.eth.accounts.signTransaction(rawTransaction,'EA------------5A36B3677F74AC1')
.then(signedTx => web3.eth.sendSignedTransaction(signedTx.rawTransaction))
.then(receipt => console.log("Transaction receipt: ", receipt))
.catch(err => console.error(err));
The error being thrown :
Error: Returned error: insufficient funds for gas * price + value
