Invalid sender error after upgrading to geth 1 4 0

0 votes

My program was able to craft and send raw transactions to geth v1.3.3 before, but after I upgrade to geth v1.4.0, calling sendRawTransactionover RPC always returns invalid sender error.

Is transaction serialization (i.e. RLP) changed somehow from v1.3.3 to v1.4.0? Here is a dump of by raw transaction that triggers an invalid user error:

A more machine readable version of my transaction is:

Guessing that the JSON RPC stuff changed in geth v1.4.0. To exactly point at why is this happening we need the full sendRawTransaction you are calling but for now, you might check out the docs. Maybe you'll find something useful here: https://github.com/ethereum/wiki/wiki/JSON-RPC#eth_sendtransaction
