TestRPC/Ganache: the tx doesn't have the correct nonce
I have been experimenting with truffle recently and followed the following tutorial: http://truffleframework.com/tutorials/pet-shop
Whenever I try to setup a transaction I keep getting the same error below
Error: Error: the tx doesn't have the correct nonce. account has nonce of: 14 tx has nonce of: 0
Checked online and read up on a lot of articles related to this but so far haven't found what might be causing this issue.
- Truffle v3.4.7
- Solidity v0.4.13
- Npm v5.3.0
- TestRPC v4.0.1 (also happen with Ganache)
- Metamask v3.9.5
From what I understand it seems it is unable to find the previous transactions to hash the new transaction?
Answer
Using MetaMask v3.14.1 you can reset your account as follow:
Resetting an Account In the Settings menu, MetaMask has a "Reset Account" button. This button wipes the current account's transaction history, which is used to calculate the current account nonce.
Normal users should never have a reason to use this feature.
This is useful for developers who reset a test network but want to continue using the same account, forcing MetaMask to believe this network ID is a clean network in a fresh state.

Old response: Answer of yatskevich is correct.
However, for people how are using Truffle 4+ with "truffle develop", you need to remove and reinstall MetaMask to get it work again, every time you run Truffle Develop!
This issue is addressed here: https://github.com/trufflesuite/truffle/issues/681, here: https://github.com/trufflesuite/ganache/issues/112, and also here: https://github.com/MetaMask/metamask-extension/issues/1999
In short they are working on it and in the mean time you need to reinstall MetaMask every time!
