Title: 0/unconfirmed problem - transaction never go into a block but blocking balance..
Post by: maky on June 21, 2011, 06:35:25 PM
I made a transaction. After few days this transaction is still 0/unconfirmed and is not in the block so -rescan or reload blocks can't fix it up.
Few hours later i made another transaction and this transaction stuck the same way but ... between this transactions i made a copy of wallet.dat.
In this copy of wallet.dat there is added 1-st transaction but 2-nd doesn't exist.
I copy this old wallet.dat and do -rescan. In effect i have 'unblocked' amount of BTC from 2-nd transaction (never go to the block like 1-st never go to the block too).
Problem is that i don't have a copy of wallet.dat before 1-st transaction...

I know how to resolve this problem but i have no technical skills.
Solution:
- extract all keys from wallet
- made new wallet with this keys ONLY (without the transactions saved)

Can anybody do this for me? Or maybe tell me how to do it?
I'm a Windows Vista user. No skills with Linux.
