# Can't send raw transaction Bitcoin Core 0.19.1 - non-mandatory-script-verify-flag (Signature must be zero for failed CHECK(MULTI)SIG operation)

(Asked by: username_0 on 2020-03-28)

I wanted to send a raw testnet transaction and I was doing it like in the bitcoin documentation, but I still get this error:
non-mandatory-script-verify-flag (Signature must be zero for failed CHECK(MULTI)SIG operation) (code 64) (code -26).
What am I doing wrong?

I take one transaction from my listunspent 

{
    "txid": "8ee71fee9e4706100c09fb2da4c3ccdac1a4475981bd893ba1eba9417947abff",
    "vout": 0,

    "safe": true
}


Then I create raw transaction from this:

createrawtransaction '[{"txid":"8ee71fee9e4706100c09fb2da4c3ccdac1a4475981bd893ba1eba9417947abff","vout":0}]' '{"2NCH5HXBwfHegFEUTNrkSKzyYTnTYQKDUjU":0.02}'


dumpprivkey
And signs the transaction like this 

signrawtransactionwithkey '0200000001ffab477941a9eba13b89bd815947a4c1daccc3a42dfb090c1006479eee1fe78e0000000000ffffffff0180841e000000000017a914d0c3f50336b5f109207d722c692191ff86263e968700000000' '[" $privKey "]' '[{"txid":"8ee71fee9e4706100c09fb2da4c3ccdac1a4475981bd893ba1eba9417947abff","vout":0,"scriptPubKey":"a91429c3d920cd18e34db9035c4322474aae4465792187","redeemScript":"00143b88811e01b3efaa0bcd9da16ef85ef3a1583349","amount":0.02}]'

That error message is irrelevant.
SegWit introduced a new way of producing the hash digest for signing which requires the "amount" being spent to be included during hashing. This "amount" is the value of the output that is being spent not the amount of the new output you create. In your it is 0.02641617 or the actual value 2641617 in satoshi.
Your step 4 should become:
