Rippled tx method error

[antonio88m]

I am trying to retrieve the information about a transaction with the following POST request

{
    "method": "tx",
    "params": [
        {
            "transaction": "E08D6E9754025BA2534A78707605E0601F03ACE063687A0CA1BDDACFCD1698C7",
            "binary": false
        }
    ]
}

but I always get the following answer

{"result": {"error": "txnNotFound","error_code": 29,"error_message": "Transaction not found.","request": {"binary": false,"command": "tx","transaction": "E08D6E9754025BA2534A78707605E0601F03ACE063687A0CA1BDDACFCD1698C7"},"status": "error"}}

 

I am sure the transaction hash is correct.

What am I doing wrong?

That's a quite old transaction. Maybe the server you're querying doesn't have that much history?

I also tried newer transactions but I always get the same error.

When I try it as a Websocket Request it works perfectly: https://ripple.com/build/websocket-tool/#tx
