Troubleshooting
Use this page when your API call fails or returns unexpected output.Endpoint and transport issues
HTTP 404 or wrong URL
Cause: Request URL does not match a valid API endpoint. Fix:- Verify you are using the correct base URL:
https://api.staging.rhaios.com - Check that the endpoint path is correct (e.g.,
POST /v1/yield/discover, not/mcp). - Check
GET https://api.staging.rhaios.com/healthto verify the API is reachable.
POST /v1/yield/prepare errors
Payment required
Cause: x402 is enabled on the server and payment was not attached or not verified.
Fix:
- Ensure your client supports x402 and can attach the
X-PAYMENTheader after receiving HTTP402. - If you expected free mode, switch to the intended environment or contact Rhaios support.
No suitable vaults found
Cause: No active vault matched your filters (asset, chain, risk).
Fix:
- Use
asset: "USDC"andchain: "base"first. - Remove strict filters (
riskTolerance, aggressive strategy overrides). - Retry with a larger universe (different chain or strategy).
POST /v1/yield/execute errors
Transaction validation failed
Cause: Signed tx did not match policy (wrong type, wrong chain, wrong target).
Fix:
- Ensure tx is Type 2 or Type 4.
- Ensure
tois EntryPoint (0x0000000071727De22E5E9d8BAf0edAc6f37da032). - Ensure chain is Base (
8453) or Ethereum (1) for pre-prod/prod profiles.
Transaction submission failed with aaCode
POST /v1/yield/execute surfaces common account-abstraction errors:
AA50: postOp reverted (often paymaster/postOp issue)AA24: signature validation failureAA21: account not funded / prefund issue
- Rebuild calldata via
POST /v1/yield/prepare, then re-sign (forAA24). - Check gas sponsorship/funding path (for
AA21/AA50). - Retry once if RPC/bundler transient failure is suspected.
Preflight simulation errors
Preflight simulation failed
Cause: The server runs a preflight simulation on an ephemeral fork before submitting your transaction. If simulation reverts, execution is blocked.
Fix:
- Check that your wallet has sufficient token balance and approvals for the operation.
- Rebuild calldata via
POST /v1/yield/prepare(on-chain state may have changed since preparation). - If the error includes a revert reason (e.g.,
INSUFFICIENT_BALANCE), address the underlying cause.
Preflight simulation failures always block execution. This is intentional — a reverted simulation means the transaction would fail on-chain.
Test RPC and testing endpoint errors
See Test RPCs for background on managed chain forks.Anvil forks not configured
Cause: Setup relay requires a managed test RPC, which is not configured on this deployment.
Fix:
- This is an operator-side configuration issue. Contact Rhaios support.
- For local development, set
ANVIL_FORKS_URLandANVIL_FORKS_ADMIN_TOKENin your environment.
Fork is not running or funding errors
Cause: The test RPC for the target chain is unavailable or was evicted.
Fix:
- Call
GET /v1/testing/fork-statusto check test RPC health before funding. - Retry the operation — the server will recreate the fork automatically.
- If persistent, contact Rhaios support.
RPC and network issues
Symptoms:- Timeout errors
fetch failed- Receipt not found
- Check
https://api.staging.rhaios.com/healthfirst. - Retry with backoff (2-3 attempts).
- Verify upstream status for your RPC provider.
- If persistent, share timestamps and failing endpoint calls with Rhaios support.
Data freshness issues
If strategy quality looks stale:- Retry after a short delay (snapshots update over time).
- Compare
updatedAtor timestamp fields in responses across retries. - If values remain stale for an extended window, contact Rhaios support.
