Title: What is going on? "Transaction not found"
Post by: idomukodel on April 12, 2017, 07:46:35 PM
Hello,

this is first time i facing that kind of problem. I sent BTC from one Electrum wallet to another. Both are Portables. I can see from sending wallet that transaction is still on the way ( 12 hours~ ) Unconfirmed with 0 confirmations. Transaction ID:

0ee6932f018b09575c35759c2c3a96d20ddb412ca457915c02b8ceb23699f294

But when im trying to view on block explorer it says that "Transaction not found".

When i sent BTC from one wallet to another i saw that BTC coming to receiving wallet, but after some time that transaction just gone from the transactions list. Im totally confused. Also there is few more transactions which is Unconfirmed and at the same situation.

Anyone had same situation here ?

most possibly you paid a very low amount of fee and the transaction(s) took a long time to confirm. and because of that, they are dropped from the mempool (network has forgotten about them now).

the funds are spendable again, you can create another transaction and send it out again. this time make sure to include higher fees based on what electrum suggests.

I can't move those funds. It says "Not enough funds" when im trying to move it. I sent full amount of wallet with that transaction. Is there anything i can do ? And how about that fee, i put tick on the "Dynamic fee". Is that correct move? Thank you for answers.

Try restoring from seed in a new wallet using the seed from your original wallet. Just click new/restore, choose standard wallet, then check "I already have a seed", and enter your seed phrase from your original wallet into the text box that opens.

After the new wallet syncs your coins should be spendable from it.

Try restoring from seed in the portable version of electrum. That stores all its blockchain data in a separate location to the install-able version of electrum. This is the link to the portable version download.

Worked. I used my wallet from USB and restored seed inside PC. Many thanks for help.
