Title: Four unverified payments
Post by: kometen on February 22, 2014, 09:53:52 AM
Hi.

I recently joined middlecoin.com and is very satisfied. The last couple of days, after Mt.Gox. was temporarily halted, I have four unverified payments. I use the online electrum wallet v. 1.9.7. Should I just be patient and wait for the blockchain to be traversed?

It says '-1 Confirmations'. It's between 0.01 and 0.03 so no huge amounts.

regards
Claus

Claus,

Check the transaction ID at blockchain.info, they are likely already confirmed. There seems to be an issue where Electrum incorrectly shows them as unverified, even though they are. It seems to be a harmless display issue.

Thanks,

Deleting the block_headers in the .electrum directory to download it again does correct the unverified issue

I'm having the same problem but with the portable version.

I can't seem to locate the block_headers file to delete it. I found one but it appears to be from the installed version because deleting it had no affect on the behavior of the portable version.

FYI I use the portable version because the installed version just won't connect to a server no matter what I do.

It should be in the USB stick or in the same directory as the executable as it is portable

I have it running in a tmp directory and I can't find the file. Strange!

Any other thoughts?

There should be a data folder for the portable version. Unless you are using the standalone instead. Look at your user folder

Code:
Show hidden files
Go to \Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\Local\Electrum
