Title: Help needed - transaction not going through
Post by: chnch on December 11, 2013, 09:07:28 AM
Hi everyone,

I'd need some urgent help or ideas what's happening.

I sent a transaction appr. 24 hrs ago sending 0.7539 BTC to an address, with 0.0001 BTC fee (that's handled by my client automatically); the transaction didn't go through, according to my client its status is 'Seen by 1 peer. Pending/unconfirmed', blockhain.info doesn't find this tx.

I'm using Multibit 0.5.15 on Mac OS X 10.9

Many thanks in advance for the ideas what's going on here, and what should i do

Really? Is it going to go through just once upon a time?

Is it a normal 'bug' and do i have to consider this risk in each and every tx?

if you have linux, download pywallet and you can use that to delete the tx from your wallet, then you just do a -rescan with the new wallet.dat

If its not seen by the blockchain after 24 hours, not looking good..  It would be diff if it was seen by blockchain but not confirmed.

Thanks, issue solved, there is a function in Multibit to reset blockchain and transactions which helped

It was scary though...
