Run web3.ethSendTransaction(tx).send doesn't work in Corda

_Issuedescription

I tried to run web3j to send tx to Ethereum from Corda. However, it returned error like this

[INFO ] 2020-02-28T07:49:59,338Z [Node thread-1] corda.flow.run - Flow raised an error... sending it to flow hospital {actor_id=internalShell, actor_owning_identity=O=ParticipantA, L=London, C=GB, actor_store_id=NODE_CONFIG, fiber-id=10000001, flow-id=76edee53-897f-48ac-b1b1-776571a74313, invocation_id=3b6bc56b-9bee-4a78-b05a-46d18f3f08e4, invocation_timestamp=2020-02-28T07:49:59.025Z, origin=internalShell, session_id=128fc04e-ca5f-4980-9317-1753046cf745, session_timestamp=2020-02-28T07:49:58.807Z, thread-id=138}

It seems okhttp3.RequestBody.create doesn't exist but I surely resolved dependencies. If it was not resolved, it should have returned NoSuchMethodError for web3j (this is confirmed).

I'm not sure but around Kotlin extension function may be a cause.

_Issuecontext

• Corda 4.0
• web3j core 4.5.15
• The unit test that is same as the code written in Cordapp passed

I would be grateful if someone commented on this.

We upgraded the version of okhttp in https://github.com/web3j/web3j/releases/tag/v4.5.12 you can either use a version prior to this as it is using okhttp v3.8.1 which should be compatible with the okhttp version v3.5.0 which is what corda v4 pulls in.

web3j 4.5.11 worked very well with Corda Flow! Thank you for your great information!
