Title: [solved] Net dropped during send tx with Bitcoin-QT
Post by: Draino on July 28, 2012, 07:09:08 PM
I was making a bet on satoshidice, the power dimmed and my net connection dropped.  Now the client has the coins deducted from my wallet, and blockchain.info says they never made it.  Running bitcoin-qt with -rescan didn't change anything, now what?

tx id was :0b15a8e14705f1617e935970c155da4dd9876cc2f826648a11c8a050cf3c85b5

edit:

looks like just waiting a few minutes made it go through, wish the client was more clear.

The client will notice that the transaction wasn't included in a block and will rebroadcast within about a half hour.  It doesn't check on startup so that privacy is compromised (if a new connection is followed by a new transaction, then that node is likely the one where that transaction's wallet is, or is close to.)
