Title: Transaction not showing up in history, 0 confirmations on blockchain.info
Post by: RENNY on December 20, 2016, 03:04:49 AM
Hi all, I'm have a very weird problem, I'm hoping someone can help me clear it up.
EDIT: I'm using an up-to-date version of electrum (2.7.12)

I sent a transaction from a wallet on my phone to an electrum wallet on my computer. I've done this many times and never had a problem.

The transaction doesn't show up at all in my electrum wallet, balance still shows at 0.0000, and nothing shows up in the history, not even pending (like usual).
The transaction shows up on blockchain.info, but has 0 confirmations


I set the fee to .0005, so it should have gone through quickly (small amount of btc). And still, the transaction SHOULD be showing up in the electrum history, even if it's taking awhile to confirm. So it looks like something else is wrong.

I've tried resetting the wallet, and also restored the wallet from seed on a different computer,  with the same results. I've also tried using different servers.

Can anyone help me? I'm pretty concerned, I don't understand what is happening.

Thanks!

There is a huge problem with your transaction and your client somehow didn't stop it.

The reference client defines spam as 2730 satoshis if the minimum relay fee is 0.00005BTC/KB. That means, for the default configuration, an output must have at least 2730 satoshis. Since most nodes uses this minimum relay fee, your output must have at least 2730 satoshis. In your transaction, one of your output is 0.239092 BTC and the change is 0.00000069BTC. Since your change does not meet the dust limit, your transaction is not relayed.

Either increase your fees by 0.00000069BTC or increase your BTC you are sending by 0.00000069BTC.

EDIT: I got it to work using a custom broadcast -- thanks!
