Title: [solved] A 450BTC transaction didn't come through? offline? Post by: Mahkul on April 21, 2011, 10:14:46 AM I have just tried sending 450 BTC to my other Bitcoin wallet and got something strange:
http://makul.home.pl/public/img/mahkul450.jpg (http://makul.home.pl/public/img/mahkul450.jpg) Both of Bitcoin clients are connected with at least 8 connections, a few blocks have passed since. The transaction appeared as unconfirmed/offline? even though I sent it while I had like 33 connections. It did not show up on the other client at all. What happened? After restarting the bitcoin client now it just says unconfirmed Title: Re: A 450BTC transaction didn't come through? offline? Post by: Matt Corallo on April 21, 2011, 10:25:23 AM That destination address does not show a pending (or confirmed) 450 BTC transaction. Either the generations/inputs were invalid or your client wasn't connected to the network (more likely, though still seems very odd). Start both clients with -rescan (to ensure neither has invalid data) and wait around as the 450 BTC sending wallet will occasionally retransmit the transaction.
Title: Re: A 450BTC transaction didn't come through? offline? Post by: Raulo on April 21, 2011, 10:40:20 AM You probably had some connection problems.
The transaction was finally broadcast on 10:33:06 UT: http://bitcoincharts.com/bitcoin/ And will be included in probably the nearest block. Bitcoin shows connection until they are dropped and it takes some time after network down for connections to drop. Title: Re: A 450BTC transaction didn't come through? offline? Post by: Mahkul on April 21, 2011, 11:40:16 AM Thanks for replying. Yes, it has 7 confirmations now (I was away). I think my broadband connection died just as I was broadcasting the transaction. All Good now.
