Bitcoin core “bad-txns-in-belowout”

[victorkimba17]

When i want to send a raw transaction, i got the error of “bad-txns-in-belowout”.

Using decoderawtransaction, i got the txid of the only one vin, and the value of two vout are set at 0.015 BTC.
 
./bitcoin-cli -regtest decoderawtransaction "hexvalue"
{
  "txid": "35d2e765217d71db34fd0cd1cf52f419fc525069ac87ed9f413b194851c70849",

      }
    },
    {
      "value": 0.01500000,
      "n": 1,
...
    }
}

Using the command, i can see the amount and fee of vin.

./bitcoin-cli -regtest gettransaction 2146415931a60db99ebf60849e2874dd67d37f870249a1ff06adcc6b8244155b

...
}
   
Is there a command to check the output 0 value of txid 2146415931a60db99ebf60849e2874dd67d37f870249a1ff06adcc6b8244‌​155b ? It is the txid of vin.

as the address is "n1fprNxRhWrpkJ34A4cNsSZbHsnzhob2KL ", it looks like you are on testnet, or even on regtest?
I couldn't find the tx number in any of the testnet explorers.

Did you create the previous tx, from which you want to spend?

Yes, the address is on regtest.

[pebwindkraft]

so regtest is a local setup, were we can't see, what happened on your PC. I assume, you have created the funding tx, and would need to verify, if you have the "old" raw tx. "decoderawtransaction" would be the right command.
If it doesn't provide any value, you may have to re-create the funding tx. You may also want to post the raw tx (the funding and the spending), so we can better help ...

the complete raw transaction hex string can be seen below:

Sending this raw transaction gives "bad-txns-in-belowout" error.

The funding transaction was created using bitcoin-cli generatetoaddress  command.

[pebwindkraft]

I have "only" some observation:

the output of the tx has twice the same address hash (and as such the bitcoin address), with the same value (0.015 BTC). Why isn't this a single output of 0.03 BTC?

Also:
this is a multisig spending transaction. The redeem script is included, and translates to:

Code:

    52: OP_2:                the number 2 is pushed onto stack
        ################### we go multisig ####################################
    21: OP_DATA_0x21:        compressed pub key (33 Bytes)
        03D01115D548E756:1B15C38F004D7346
        33687CF441962009:5BC5B0F47070AFE8
        5A
        This is MultiSig's compressed Public Key (X9.63 form)
        corresponding bitcoin address is:    n1fprNxRhWrpkJ34A4cNsSZbHsnzhob2KL

    AE: OP_CHECKMULTISIG:    terminating multisig
        corresponding bitcoin address is:    2N1rGJRj7xU4p5f1UfY1SEQAtvNERZrWn7A

Also this redeem script has two addresses, which are the same. The redeem script defines it as a 2-of-2 multisig, shouldn't it then have two addresses? (I haven't checked the code, if this is really possible...)
It would also be interesting to change to a 1-of-2 multisig, maybe then it goes through?

Here is Gavin's example for a multisig on testnet: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/gavinandresen/3966071/raw/TwoOfThree.sh

(I haven't checked the code, if this is really possible...)

Thank you for your reply. I am writing the code. It is possible that i can send the code to you. Please send a message to me with your email, i will send the code to you.

The transactions are sent out successfully by the code now.
