I've implemented unified accounts in a NPoS consensus-based substrate chain, and modified the polkadot-js/apps accordingly as well. The transactions through metamask go through successfully, but I'm getting this (screenshot attached) error on each extrinsic performed through the polkadot-js/apps. These are the types that I've added to polkadot-js/apps/packages/apps-config/src/api/typesBundle.ts:

"types": [
    {
      "minmax": [
        0,
        null
      ],
      "types": {
        "AccountId": "EthereumAccountId",
        "AccountId20": "EthereumAccountId",
        "AccountId32": "EthereumAccountId",
        "Address": "AccountId",
        "LookupSource": "AccountId",
        "Lookup0": "AccountId",
        "EthereumSignature": {
          "r": "H256",
          "s": "H256",
          "v": "U8"
        },
        "ExtrinsicSignature": "EthereumSignature"
      }
    }
  ]

  • I think it has something to do with the mappings of the types. The Address type should be mapped to the EthereumAccountId type no?

I've fixed it by making these changes in my runtime:

  1. In the frame_system::Config, changed Lookup from type Lookup = AccountIdLookup<AccountId, ()>; to type Lookup = sp_runtime::traits::IdentityLookup<AccountId>;.
  2. And changed the Address type from pub type Address = sp_runtime::MultiAddress<AccountId, ()>; to pub type Address = AccountId;

where AccountId is the AccountId20.

  • awesome, thanks for sharing this! it just helped me solve the same issue after applying AccountId20 to my chain! May 11 at 23:50
