Got error 157 'Unknown error code' from NDBCLUSTER (blockchain)

[Kyle91]

So i was trying to log in my old blockchain wallet account and i got this odd message, i haven't logged in that account for a month. But i had only $5.00 left in the wallet. I remember contacting blockchain a month ago but they never replied, and for some reason that account never let me log in all of a sudden. Possibly have been hacked back then, but what does this message mean?

It seems to be the blockchain.info cant connect to the database server
Just wonder why this kept happening regularly

Just got the same, "Got error 157 'Unknown error code' from NDBCLUSTER" error when refreshing transactions in Blockchain.info wallet. I was already logged in and was hitting the refresh icon within thee transaction page, to see if a transaction confirmed yet. I know it is a MySQL error, so I am assuming that someone is attempting DDoS and main server cannot communicate with server containing MySQL. I am not sure, cause I haven't looked into details of that error, but I assume that would be it. Hopefully everything is safe. Also, you will notice that no transactions are being processed or confirmed. The last transaction on the blockchain.info homepage says 22 minutes ago.

[Kyle91]

are they on maintenance or something? Hope this doesn't turn out to be one big clusterfuck.

I have seen that it has happened before, and I don't think there was an issue long term. They use cloudflare which has a DDoS and virus protection with their service, so they may redirect queries while someone is trying to attack the site, because it is a MySQL error code. Transactions are still going through, and I have my address's private key, because I imported it from my client into blockchain. So I can just crank up bitcoind if I need to access it. Always good to do it that way. Import your private key, if you use an online wallet, that way you can still access it from the bitcoin client or daemon if something happens to the online wallet, because the bitcoin network is still working, just that site is not.

You know what really sucks, I just sent a bet to SatoshiDice from my blockchain wallet, right before this happened, that is why I refreshed my transactions, wondering why it wasn't confirming. So, I just checked the SatoshiDice website for the transaction under my BTC address and it is not showing. So, I just cranked up bitcoind to see the transaction and if it has confirmed, or if it maybe wasn't actually subtracted even though it showed it subtracted from my balance on bockchain.info but it has been a bit since I cranked it up, so it'll take a bit before I know, while it catches up. Hopefully nothing is wrong. Just a small glitch.

[Kyle91]

yeah it has to be, worst case scenario is if all our bitcoins were gone. But i doubt that would happen.

my phone app just forced me re-enter my p/w - twice, then it forced me to re-pair the device. that's when I got an Error 500 page. when I tried to check an address, I got the same error reported here.

[Kyle91]

it will probably be fixed tomorrow

[silverserpent]

it will probably be fixed tomorrow

should I be the least bit concerned?

[redzero36]

hmmm I'm also getting the same error when I try to log in or get error 500... I just switch over from bitcoin-qt to blockchain last night thinking it was better because someone convinced me. Glad to know it isn't just me though.

[Kyle91]

Yeah, why would blockchain fuck up? Smh

[theDF]

Its fixed now
