expired

The window has closed; restart the flow with fresh state

View as Markdown

The call arrived after its window closed: a weights commit past its reveal period, an order past its expiry, or a contribution after the period ended.

The expired object cannot be revived. restart the flow with fresh state — make a new commit, place a new order, or move on.

Chain errors

The exact chain error names (from the extrinsic receipt) that classify to expired; the description says what triggered the failure and where to check. Each name has its own page:

Chain errorDescription
ContributionPeriodEndedA contribution was made at or after the crowdloan's end block. Compare the end field of the Crowdloans entry with the current block number; the creator can extend it with update_end while the crowdloan is not finalized.
ExpiredWeightCommitThe hash supplied to reveal_weights matches a commit whose reveal window has already passed, so it can no longer be revealed. Check the commit_reveal_period hyperparameter and reveal within the allowed epochs after committing; re-commit and reveal on time.
InvalidRevealRoundA timelocked weights commit specified a reveal_round older than the latest stored DRAND round, so it could be decrypted immediately. Query the drand pallet's LastStoredRound and commit with a future round number.
OrderCancelledThe order was previously cancelled via cancel_order and can never be executed. Check the Orders storage entry for the order id; a Cancelled status is terminal, so the signer must sign and submit a fresh order.
OrderExpiredThe current chain time is past the order's expiry field, which is a unix timestamp in milliseconds, so the order can no longer execute. Compare the expiry in the signed order payload with the chain's current Timestamp value.

The same explanation is available in the terminal: btcli explain expired (or btcli explain <ChainErrorName> for one exact chain error).
