Title: Unconfirmed Transaction since 7 days
Post by: Alesia on June 23, 2016, 05:54:11 PM
Hi everybody,

As you can see I'm a total newbie, I've done several transactions but I have a problem with my latest : it's been 7 days it won't confirmed.

I didn't put any fee so I know that's the reason: it was on 0 by itself and I never thought about changing it.

Anyway since 7 days now nothing changed :

État: 0/non confirmée
Date: 16/06/2016 14:48
Á: 1GRfiMamBwekp4Yqdu3hjhoEhfQALkhtnk
Débit: -0.32229402 BTC
Montant net: -0.32229402 BTC
ID de transaction: 1d150ad498c23524dcb60198d41676f3b44060fc37ac2d7e76f8625be4e5562c-000

My wallet adress is 19hhXVqWfP8KPK3Di1G9tAbkZ9Jj6zMobJ and on blockchain I can see that I have +0,32BTC but on my Bitcoin Core everything is at 0 (and my wallet is updated).

I did check online in order to confirmed it or erase but seriously I didn't really understand and didn't mess everything up.

What could I do ?

You might wanna reset all the transactions from your wallet and resynchronize it.

Start Bitcoin Core with the command line switch -zapwallettxs to remove the transaction from local storage. The blockchain will subsequently be rescanned for all txns related to your wallet, and you will be able to continue using your wallet. You only need to run it with -zapwallettxs once.

I opened the terminal and did : open /Applications/bitcoin-qt.app --args zapwallettxes

It did opened but nothing changed.

Since 7 days? The transaction that you provided "1d150ad498c23524dcb60198d41676f3b44060fc37ac2d7e76f8625be4e5562c" has been made today 23rd June, the chances that your transaction to get included in the block is very very low, because the fees are zero. Those who have their own full node can broadcast your tx and it can be confirmed if you are lucky.

That's extremely weird because it was done on the 16th was on blockchain (unconfirmed) until this morning, left and now is back with a new time.

What surprises me is,even though the estimated fees is zero ,blockchain.info shows the transaction to get confirmed very soon on the High Priority basis.Did you rebroadcast the transaction ? Eventually it should have been dropped out of the memory pool.I suggest try rebroadcasting it now with higher fees.Its not going to get confirmed ever anyway.

I'm using 0.12.1

And for the transaction itself I don't even know how to rebroadcast it: I didn't do anything it was on blockchain form 16th to the 23rd, then left and came back on the 23rd at 6pm.

I can't redo the transaction my balance is at 0.

Your command line seems odd. I would add a - before zapwallettxes since I'm under the impression that the argument is passed as-is to the executable by the Mac app loader.

So I did : open /Applications/bitcoin-qt.app --args - zapwallettxes but same happened, it opened but nothing after that

No space between - and zapwallettxes. Should be open /Applications/bitcoin-qt.app --args -zapwallettxes if I'm not mistaken.
