Unable to create account in Hyperledger sawtooth seth (Ethereum)

Question

I am trying to deploy a smart contract on the sawtooth network. While creating account with the command : It is getting a timeout.

seth account create --nonce=0 --wait myalias

Error: Problem submitting account creation transaction: Transaction was submitted, but client timed out before it was committed.

Can we increase the timeout or what can be the possible solution for the error?

Answer 1

This usually happens if you did not have --wait on the command line, so the client to wait for the commit response.

Another thing you can do is check that all the client services are running (listed in the docker-compose.yaml file if you are using Docker).
