Ethereum: Queued Transactions Stuck on MetaMask Connection to Anvil
When I started building my decentralized application (dApp) via the popular Foundry, I encountered an unexpected issue where queued transactions were stuck on MetaMask. Despite following the instructions and troubleshooting steps, the issue persisted and became frustrating.
Settings
I started by creating a new contract on the Foundry platform. The contract was successfully deployed, and I had configured my interface to interact with it. Next, I used Anvil to run a test chain and imported the MetaMask wallet address. This allowed me to connect my MetaMask account to the Anvil instance.
Problem
Unfortunately, queued transactions were blocked on MetaMask, which prevented the application from working as expected. The issue appeared to be related to the connection between MetaMask and the Anvil instance. I have not been able to resolve it using basic troubleshooting steps or the Foundry documentation.
Problem Explained
After further investigation, we discovered that queued transactions were indeed being blocked in MetaMask due to a misconfiguration of the account settings. Specifically, the Anvil connection was not configured correctly to connect the MetaMask account. This resulted in queued transactions being blocked and unable to be completed.
Solution and Workaround
To resolve this issue, I performed the following steps:
- Check Account Settings: Check your account settings in both MyEtherWallet (MEW) and MetaMask to ensure they are properly linked.
- Check Anvil Connection: Rechecked the connection between MEW and the Anvil instance to ensure it is set up correctly.
- Reset MetaMask Account Login: Reset your MetaMask account login by deleting your saved private key and re-entering it with your new wallet address.
Conclusion
This experience highlights the importance of checking and verifying your account settings and proper connection configurations between tools like Anvil (foundry) and MetaMask. If you are experiencing similar issues, I recommend checking your account settings and verifying your Anvil connection before attempting to connect your MetaMask wallet.
I hope this article provides valuable information on troubleshooting queued transactions in MetaMask connected to Anvil (foundry).
