Title: Bitcoin-qt crashes while sending coins
Post by: maxmint on March 19, 2013, 01:58:46 PM
I just sent some coins from bitcoin-qt (0.8.1, Mac) when all of a sudden the app crashed. After re-opening, I see the transaction in my local list but it does no appear on blockchain.info so I guess the broadcast did not go out correctly.

How can I re-send the transaction? Or will the client care for this automatically?
Thanks for any suggestions.

the client will attempt to re-broadcast transactions at random intervals if it doesn't get confirmed.

Great, that's good to know.

Just out of interest, would it be possible to manually resend the transaction using the debug / console window?
1. getrawtransaction tx
2. sendrawtransaction (hex from step 1)
Would that be working?
