# E1808 — One or more epochs not pre-wrapped

> One or more epochs not pre-wrapped

# E1808 — One or more epochs not pre-wrapped

| Property | Value |
| - | - |
| **Code** | `1808` |
| **Slug** | `E1808` |
| **Category** | `watchtower` (Watchtower) |
| **CIP** | CIP-7 |

## What happened

One or more epochs not pre-wrapped (missing \{...} epoch(s)).

This is the receipt's `what` text, produced by the host-call result `HostError::EpochsNotWrapped`. Placeholders in braces are filled from the failing transaction.

## Why it happened

The node rejected the operation with `E1808` (category `watchtower`, Watchtower). The receipt's `why` field carries the specific cause and `context` carries structured details, such as the values that filled the placeholders above.

The normative rule is in CIP-7.

## How to fix

Have the publisher pre-wrap the missing epochs before acquiring access.

## Receipt example

```json theme={null}
{
  "code": 1808,
  "slug": "E1808",
  "category": "watchtower",
  "what": "one or more epochs not pre-wrapped (missing {...} epoch(s))",
  "fix": "Have the publisher pre-wrap the missing epochs before acquiring access.",
  "docs_url": "https://docs.cowboy.inc/errors/E1808"
}
```
