USDT TRC20 transaction failed because OUT_OF_ENERGY

Question

I tried to broadcast some USDT transactions every day and after a few days, I got the OUT_OF_ENERGY message on some transactions.

every day I do some transactions and some days I do about 30 transactions.

first I tried to Stake about 20k TRX for energy and bandwidth but it wasn't enough.

when I trigger transactions using my PHP script based on Tron grid documentation it shows a fee limit of 10 so I increased the fee limit to 15 TRX ( 15M SUN ) but still didn't use TRX for submitting transactions. but everything is fine if I offer them manually from the TronLink wallet.

I don't know what I should do now.

I already use the transferTrc20 method on https://github.com/iexbase/tron-api for broadcast transactions on the TRX network.

Answer 1

I don't know if that is needed but I found solution this way. Function triggerConstantContract can return energy consume before real network call but iexbase by some reason didn't implement such logic. So I added my own function just after public function triggerConstantContract in TransactionBuilder.php which return full result which containing energy info

   public function triggerConstantContractFull($abi,
                                            $contract,
                                            $function,
                                            $params = [],
                                            $address = '410000000000000000000000000000000000000000')
    {
        $func_abi = [];
        foreach($abi as $key =>$item) {
            if(isset($item['name']) && $item['name'] === $function) {
                $func_abi = $item + ['inputs' => []];
                break;
            }
        }

        if(count($func_abi) === 0)
            throw new TronException("Function $function not defined in ABI");

        if(!is_array($params))
            throw new TronException("Function params must be an array");

        if(count($func_abi['inputs']) !== count($params))
            throw new TronException("Count of params and abi inputs must be identical");


        $inputs = array_map(function($item){ return $item['type']; },$func_abi['inputs']);
        $signature = $func_abi['name'].'(';
        if(count($inputs) > 0)
            $signature .= implode(',',$inputs);
        $signature .= ')';

        $eth_abi = new Ethabi([
            'address' => new Address,
            'bool' => new Boolean,
            'bytes' => new Bytes,
            'dynamicBytes' => new DynamicBytes,
            'int' => new Integer,
            'string' => new Str,
            'uint' => new Uinteger,
        ]);
        $parameters = substr($eth_abi->encodeParameters($func_abi, $params),2);

        $result = $this->tron->getManager()->request('wallet/triggerconstantcontract', [
            'contract_address' => $contract,
            'function_selector' => $signature,
            'parameter' => $parameters,
            'owner_address' =>  $address,
        ]);

        if(!isset($result['result'])){
            throw new TronException('No result field in response. Raw response:'.print_r($result,true));
        }
        if(isset($result['result']['result'])) {
            return $result;
        }
        $message = isset($result['result']['message']) ?
            $this->tron->hexString2Utf8($result['result']['message']) : '';

        throw new TronException('Failed to execute. Error:'.$message);
    }

}

thus you can do something like that

$transfer = $this->_tron->getTransactionBuilder()
    ->triggerConstantContractFull(
        $this->abiData,
        $this->_tron->address2HexString($this->contractAddress),
        'transfer',
        [$this->_tron->address2HexString($to), $tokenAmount],
        $this->_tron->address2HexString($from)
    );

and response of that
