P2SH “relaxed standards” for P2SH redeem scripts in Bitcoin Core 0.10.0

What is meant by "relaxed standards" for P2SH redeem scripts in Bitcoin Core 0.10.0?

I just try to create redeem script with OP_PUSHDATA1 opcode and push it using Blockchain.info

RAW TX is

In case I start use OP_PUSHDATA1 transaction not broadcast to network At example Blockchain.info give me error "P2SH script execution resulted in a non-true stack"

Transaction with data = 90 bytes

OP_PUSHDATA1 and even OP_PUSHDATA2 are allowed inside P2SH scripts fine. However, there is another policy in Bitcoin Core to require that all pushes are minimal in standard transactions. That means you can only use OP_PUSHDATA1 when a direct push is not possible (up to 75 bytes), and only use OP_PUSHDATA2 when an OP_PUSHDATA1 is not possible (up to 255 bytes).

Also, in general: when experimenting with scripts, try things on testnet first.

  • Thank you Pieter for reply. Could you provide example of transaction inside blockchain. If I will have example I will investigate my problem. I know about minimal limitation to prevent transaction malleability. And I tried to create transaction with data push > 75. Same error I just edit my question and add transaction with data = 90 bytes

  • @bitaps I looked at your Script a little bit and it seems that you are using OP_PUSHDATA1 appropriately. I'm wondering if this is an issue with blockchain.info, have you tried using this against bitcoin core?
