Metaplex - Canceling an (English) Auction made by Auctioneer

I have a question about canceling auctions in the Metaplex’s Auction House.

I’m currently creating an Auction with the following instruction:

const accounts = {
  auctionHouseProgram,
  listingConfig,
  wallet,
  tokenAccount,
  metadata,
  authority,
  auctionHouse,
  auctionHouseFeeAccount,
  sellerTradeState,
  freeSellerTradeState,
  auctioneerAuthority,
  ahAuctioneerPda,
  programAsSigner
};

const args {
  tradeStateBump,
  freeTradeStateBump,
  programAsSignerBump,
  auctioneerAuthorityBump,
  tokenSize,
  startTime,
  endTime,
  reservePrice,
  minBidIncrement,
  timeExtPeriod,
  timeExtDelta,
  allowHighBidCancel,
}

Auctioneer.createSellInstruction(acounts, args);

Is there any way to cancel a listed auction of this type?

I know that other types of listings such as AuctionHouse.createSellInstruction (https://github.com/metaplex-foundation/metaplex-program-library/blob/master/auction-house/js/src/generated/instructions/sell.ts) do have a Cancel Instruction, and I’ve used them before.

But how can I cancel the English Auction type? Is it even possible? Like, what if I accidently made an Auction last for years, or put a wrong Listing Configuration value?

All Cancel instructions take as an argument the buyerPrice. But in this case there is no buyerPrice, it rather uses reservePrice.

I've tried to pass the buyerPrice as 18446744073709551615 to try to execute the Auctioneer.createCancelInstruction, which is the same buyerPrice value I used to create the TradeState for listing it. But I get the following error:

2: "Program log: AnchorError caused by account: token_account. Error Code: AccountOwnedByWrongProgram. Error Number: 3007. Error Message: The given account is owned by a different program than expected."
3: "Program log: Left:"
4: "Program log: 11111111111111111111111111111111"
5: "Program log: Right:"
6: "Program log: TokenkegQfeZyiNwAJbNbGKPFXCWuBvf9Ss623VQ5DA"

Also...

  1. Is it possible to create a ListingReceipt for this type of listing? I want to keep track of creation date, canceled date, etc.
  2. When an Auction for an item has ended and failed to bid cause no bidders or any other reason, if I try to list it again for another auction I get: Address { address: GkX7ZE4sz6mtvueoWT6KGpjZLUd3wkohy3ha3VZNh2Fz, base: None } already in use So I believe cancelation is needed. Cause now it’s on a weird unknown status where Auction has ended due to time constraints and Token cannot be listed again.

You can cancel your listing Using THIS.

  1. You can you normal listing receipts of AH for this as well.

  2. The previous account should be closed in order to create a new listing. In order to close that account you need to cancel listing or the Nft should be sold.
