Are you still preparing a test for this? If so, please use your merchant.git/src/testing/test_merchant_instance_response.sh as a starting point (feel free to extend the script or to create another one).

No, I wasn't. But I can switch into this for a couple of minutes. Test on the way.

Is taking longer than I wanted to reproduce the error with a script. It happens 100% of time in my system so It seems more related to the environment configuration.
In order to make some progress, im adding more information here from a debugging session with gdb.

Its seems that after the merchant queries the exchange for the wire information it fails to get the fee from the account
important: fees is null at taler-merchant-httpd_exchanges.c:368
