Payout failure for ERG

[vinnielima]

Hi There,

A block was found and shows correctly in the pool's address, but the payout is failing. Any suggestions as to the cause?

Error in notification via email:

Failed to pay out 19.186141199711 ERG from pool ergo1: Payment transaction failed: The request content was malformed: java.lang.AssertionError: assertion failed: Wrong char in Base58 string: DownField(address),MoveRight,MoveRight,DownArray

and

Failed to pay out 19.186141199711 ERG from pool ergo1: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Update on this, adding "walletPassword" to the "paymentProcessing" section eliminated the above errors, but now having a separate errors. Any guidance would be helpful.

        "paymentProcessing": {
            "enabled": true,
            "walletPassword": "<NODE WALLET PASSWORD>",
            // Minimum payment in pool-base-currency (ie. Bitcoin, NOT Satoshis)
            "minimumPayment": 0.01,
            "payoutScheme": "PPLNS",
            "payoutSchemeConfig": {
                "factor": 2.0
            }
        }

The cause of this is due to an extra space at end of the developer's wallet.
