# Error Messages

<details>

<summary><strong>Failed to purchase: The target transaction was mined, but your buy was not included in the block?</strong></summary>

**Possible reasons:**

* The block was a non-MEV block.
* You were in the FoF Bundle and the bundle did not win.
* A private builder and doesn't allow outsiders in (example: LIDO).
* It was a full block, and the MEV space was already full and you were not selected by the builder (increasing your snipe tip might help).
* They sent the launch transaction very close to the end of the block, and builders did not have enough time to receive and process our bundles.

**Solution:** Nothing, this is very rare.&#x20;

</details>

<details>

<summary>Owner called a function, preventing the token from being purchased at this time. Check if the snipe is still relevant based on the owner's actions!</summary>

**Possible reason:** The deployer did something with the deployer wallet. The bot alerts you so you can manually check what the deployer is doing, and if you want to cancel or change settings because of those changes.

**Solution:** The snipe has not executed yet, but the developer is making changes. Review their actions and determine if you want to proceed with sniping this token.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Token purchased by another wallet but does not meet your set constraints. Cancel if desired.</summary>

**Possible reason:** There are buys on the token, but your bot did not execute because it did not meet your configured settings. This could indicate a honeypot.&#x20;

**Note:** Banana Gun will only buy tokens that it can simulate a sell on.

**Solution:** Review your settings to determine why the purchase did not go through. Potential causes include:

* Tax settings are too low.
* MaxTx or revert is enabled, but you couldn't buy MaxTx.
* Liquidity constraints are too strict.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Error: Insufficient funds. Wallet 0xA..Dead requires more ETH.</summary>

**Possible reason:** Your ETH balance is too low to complete the transaction. Please deposit additional ETH into your wallet.

**Note:** We recommend keeping at least 0.1 ETH extra in your wallet after accounting for all transaction costs. The bot will automatically approve the token and prepare it for selling when needed. If your balance is insufficient for these actions, the transaction will fail.

**Solution:** Deposit at least 0.1 ETH into the wallets you intend to snipe with.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Purchasing Token: MEV Launch Detected.</summary>

**Possible reason:** The developer launched the token via a private transaction, triggering MEV launch detection by the bot. As a result, your transaction is scheduled to land in the next block (Block 1).

**Solution:** No action needed—you are purchasing the token as quickly as possible.
