Is it a BUG? when

[xgocn]

when I run this method:

async function connectArConnect(arweave) {
    try {
        const fileInput = document.getElementById('walletFileInput');
        const walletFile = fileInput.files[0];
        const walletJson = await readFileAsText(walletFile);
        const wallet = JSON.parse(walletJson);
        console.log('Wallet JSON:', walletJson);
        console.log('Wallet:', wallet);
        const arweaveWallet = await arweave.wallets.jwkToAddress(wallet);
        const address = await arweave.wallets.getAddress(arweaveWallet);
        console.log('Connected to wallet:', address);
    } catch (error) {
        console.error('Error connecting to wallet:', error);
        alert('Error connecting to wallet. Check console for more details.');
    }
}

and I got correct response through console.log('Wallet:', wallet);

but const address = await arweave.wallets.getAddress(arweaveWallet);
gave out an error like

    b64UrlDecode utils.js:58
    b64UrlToBuffer utils.js:39
    ownerToAddress wallets.js:64
    getAddress wallets.js:60

I met the error several times before in other project , so I doubt if it's a BUG or not, hope your help.

It's important to note that this issue does not occur in normal mode; it only occurs in ANS-104 mode.

you are correct, it's not a bug, just a confusing error message.

in case you didn't figure it out, it's these lines here:

 const arweaveWallet = await arweave.wallets.jwkToAddress(wallet); //this gives the address
 const address = await arweave.wallets.getAddress(arweaveWallet); //error: attempts to get address from address

should be:

const address = arweave.wallets.jwkToAddress(wallet);

i've merged the PR you referenced, but that will just give a new message about something not being a string. not too helpful an error message either.
