If I try to add coins to make up the missing coins, I get the following:
Error when adding coins:
~$ spl-token mint 4PgB5jPM9a5Js5FT6zPJHD8rcDogcnbSSLS1d5Mny9n1 100 Minting 100 tokens Token: 4PgB5jPM9a5Js5FT6zPJHD8rcDogcnbSSLS1d5Mny9n1 Recipient: 4rqoTZ2JTvdDzY5i4X73ZnGQjjPkNRpRfaByZ1anWgBD RPC response error -32002: Transaction simulation failed: Error processing Instruction 0: custom program error: 0xe [5 log messages]
I have been following the instructions on this page: https://spl.solana.com/token. I can't find any information on this anywhere, much less any log files to look at. I'm pretty sure I'm missing something, anybody?
The supply of tokens in the spl-token program is given by a u64: https://github.com/solana-labs/solana-program-library/blob/28d0aa775949869a4390dece7341fbb3daeddb5d/token/program/src/state.rs#L22, which means that the maximum possible number of tokens is 18446744073709551615. If you set 9 decimals in your token, as you have done, that means that the maximum number of possible tokens is u64::MAX / 1_000_000_000, or 18446744073.709551615.
If you need a higher number of coins, you'll have to create a new mint with fewer decimals.
