Title: Electrum not broadcasting transaction Post by: dubya on June 17, 2016, 02:21:57 AM Sent bitcoins and electrum signed and verified like normal. Transaction shows under history and unconfirmed status at the bottom. Problem is the transaction never got broadcast to the blockchain.
tx ID ae36695e052cae305a99ea4718df7985320a7c1a45ea29eb8fa99c10fa441c4e I tried updating to lastest client 2.6.4 and restarting program but blockchain shows nothing. Any ideas? I am connected I see the green dot on bottom right.

If it doesn't work, click on the transaction>details>save to somewhere. Next, you can open it(the .txn file) with notepad or any text reader. You should get something like:
Code: { Copy the text in the brackets after the hex:, go to https://coinb.in/#broadcast and paste everything in and press broadcast. I suspect that it might be because of the fees that you have paid. What is the details of the transaction (the fees paid, transaction size etc.)? Title: Re: Electrum not broadcasting transaction Post by: dubya on June 17, 2016, 12:57:05 PM Tried what you suggested ranochigo. The server change didn't work. Then coinib came back with this error: 258: txn-mempool-conflict
I'm not sure of the transaction size because I can't find the transaction on the blockchain to tell me. I went with the default recommended fee from electrum that auto filled in. Here's what electrum shows for the transaction Transaction id: ae36695e052cae305a99ea4718df7985320a7c1a45ea29eb8fa99c10fa441c4e Status: 0 confirmations Description: Date: Pending Amount Sent: 0.03 BTC Transaction fee: 0.000399 BTC Input(s) 4 008e1966...3af8e95a:1 18WHaXb4nx6KVVYr523iehpVhTkLRvqAxi 0da0a842...402b998b:0 1NRSrk8U9K978JyLgSkLcJo4Cf23XBJNgX bd8ad325...0ccc4a51:0 1BPrqKNhyZ7jYxkidAcazvQa2tifuwLJki d1c9927c...8bb4c194:1 1Cyv2bUVs7eUcmWAvGD1XMGHj7eZki4dsW Outputs(2) 1FRF1ccWNKFuv83RCcA5G5D2ok4RXdCuy7 0.00096118 1DqV7KqENRXMuMh2HRYWTe5aNptkbgk3mT 0.03 1DqV7KqENRXMuMh2HRYWTe5aNptkbgk3mT is the wallet I'm sending to. Not sure how 1FRF1ccWNKFuv83RCcA5G5D2ok4RXdCuy7 comes into play. I thought maybe there was a lag or wait but it's been almost 12 hours now and I don't see my transaction on the blockchain. Title: Re: Electrum not broadcasting transaction Post by: --Encrypted-- on June 17, 2016, 01:03:35 PM it was rejected as double spend because the inputs are being used on another existing transaction (https://blockchain.info/tx/adec720fb3ee0a0b6513fe92812a44c81580cedb9eb59f51acd05a5193671cd5). 1FRF1ccWNKFuv83RCcA5G5D2ok4RXdCuy7 should be the change address.
Title: Re: Electrum not broadcasting transaction Post by: dubya on June 17, 2016, 01:12:28 PM OK that makes sense. Here I was thinking I had control of the bitcoins from that other transaction because they appeared back in my electrum wallet. I guess not :-\
Thanks for the help --Encrypted-- and ranochigo ;) One more question how do I remove the transaction from my history in electrum or will that happen at some point automatically? |
