Swap BNB for token(with transfer fees) not working

Hello developers

I am working on a contract on BSC, and have to Swap BNB for my token from it, using the PanCake Swap. The swap will either Burn the token or send it to a specified address.
The other day it was working just fine with uniswapV2Router.swapExactETHForTokens{value: amount} when the contract was Burning the token, but when I added the functionality to send it to some address, it gives following error:

{ "code": 3, "message": "execution reverted: PancakeLibrary: INSUFFICIENT_INPUT_AMOUNT", "data": "0x08c379a00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000020000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000002950616e63616b654c6962726172793a20494e53554646494349454e545f494e5055545f414d4f554e540000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000" }

Also one thing to note is my token charges some fees on transfer, and contract is not whitelisted yet.

Here is the piece of code which does the swap:

function _swapExactETHForTokens(uint256 amount, address transferToAddress)
    private
{
    // generate the uniswap pair path of token -> weth
    address[] memory path = new address[](2);
    path[0] = uniswapV2Router.WETH();
    path[1] = address(myToken);

    // make the swap
    uniswapV2Router.swapExactETHForTokens{value: amount}(
        0, // accept any amount of Tokens
        path,
        transferToAddress,
        block.timestamp
    );
}
  • I can use swapExactETHForTokensSupportingFeeOnTransferTokens rather than the previous method, but since I already broke the contract on BSC Mainnet, I don't want to experiment with it.

I would love to understand what I am doing wrong here. Any help is welcome.

Thanks

So, after thorough debugging, I realized that the error was literally what it says. The logic hidden above the function included in code snippet, gave the amount input as 0. This is what caused the issue.
Thanks
