For technical support, please post your questions on the Boundless Discussions Forum.
If you submitted a request, and it is stuck in an “Unknown” / “Submitted” state, there may be something that is preventing the provers from picking up your request.
  • The guest may be panicking or otherwise failing to complete the job.
    • Pre-flight your request locally before sending it.
    • The boundless CLI does this by default, and the execution step in the Foundry template also accomplishes this.
    • If your request is submitted onchain, you can use the following command to execute it locally. If it succeeds, this is not the issue.
Terminal
RUST_LOG=info boundless proving execute --request-id $REQUEST_ID
  • The offer price may be too low for the size of the job.
    • Try increasing the max price and ramp-up period.
    • The auction mechanism will ensure that the price you pay is the lowest price any online prover is willing to pay.
  • The lock-in collateral may be too high.
  • The timeout may be too short.
  • The ramp-up start block may be in the past, causing the request to immediately expire.
  • The program or input URLs may not be accessible to the prover.
