Title: Solved - Namecoin wallet incorrect balance
Post by: jwiggin on March 25, 2014, 01:29:32 PM
I'm having some trouble retrieving funds using an existing encrypted Namecoin wallet. Any help would be appreciated.

Running Namecoin-qt 3.72 on OSX.

Wallet is fully-synced up to the latest block (which is why what follows is really weird).

Wallet shows a zero balance with zero transactions, even though transactions have been completed and full balances (greater than zero) are shown on Namecoin block explorer. These are transactions completed around a week ago.

I've verified that the wallet file actually contains the addresses in question in Namecoin-qt, also tried to send funds through the client (get the error where it says the funds I'm sending exceeds what is available in my wallet). The wallet is encrypted and I've verified that I'm putting the right passphrase in by signing some messages. Can dump private keys via debug window for the addresses in question, getbalance shows zero.

Does anyone have any idea what's going on and how I can retrieve my funds?

Thanks :).

Fixed, thank you. I guess other wallets do this automatically, I was a little shaken until I verified the private keys were intact and figured it must be a local problem.
