Hey,

I made a transaction  of 5.384  BTC  with 0.0001 fee included  more than 4 hrs ago.

The Receiver already confirmed the transaction.  

Just out of curiosity:  Why is that taking so long? Normally it only takes seconds even for non-fee transactions without confirmation to appear on Blockchain.info

Your wallet must have additional receiving addresses.

The 1QDRDaVZ2oXfXXWbkf98ebcfT9y2x8LZHN has only ever received a single transaction for a value of 0.01015897 BTC:
https://blockchain.info/tx/996c2904bf99cbb1caef32297280b95222b4bc9acb39328034d23e70344580bc

It appears that the payment you made came from some other receiving address in your wallet and not 1QDRDaVZ2oXfXXWbkf98ebcfT9y2x8LZHN.

Transaktions-ID: a9cbbaa4341f0eae9d2c6d86b6d60032c81e93dcb262aec14ad5232715cc0f16

Your wallet has failed to broadcast this transaction to the bitcoin network for some reason.  The transaction does not seem to have left your wallet.

Can you please attempt the following?

Under the "Help" menu choose "Debug window", then choose "Console" in the window that pops up.

In the console type:

Code:

getrawtransaction a9cbbaa4341f0eae9d2c6d86b6d60032c81e93dcb262aec14ad5232715cc0f16

Please copy and paste the resulting raw transaction here so it can be analyzed to discover why your wallet might not have transmitted it.

The Receiver already confirmed the transaction.  

The receiver is mistaken.  They have not yet received the transaction.

It appears that the transaction is unconfirmed because one of its inputs is unconfirmed.

Here is the list of inputs to the transaction and the addresses where those inputs were previously received:

Once the transaction that sends 1 BTC to 1HqMUG2gf8J1ZUAgj4kcNRaMqqXLFnNRCf confirms, then the transaction sending 5.384 to 1E67jR6bvbkcHEMhmDPqJcEaiTsscGtX7b will confirm.  The second transaction is using change from the first transaction as an input.

The 1 BTC transaction can currently be seen on blockchain.info here:

Once the transaction that sends 1 BTC to 1HqMUG2gf8J1ZUAgj4kcNRaMqqXLFnNRCf confirms, then the transaction sending 5.384 to 1E67jR6bvbkcHEMhmDPqJcEaiTsscGtX7b will confirm.

Not for a while it won't. The transaction fee is only BTC0.0001, but a fee of BTC0.0002 is required.

True

I hadn't noticed the issue with the size of the fee.

I assume the OP must be using an old (or modified) version of the wallet?  The most recent versions shouldn't allow a user to send transactions with insufficient fees.

I use Bitcoin-qt v. 0.85.  I use default settings. Never changed anything! This really needs to be fixed.   Both transactions are still unconfirmed!  
It's ok for me. Next time will just include a proper fee.

You can't advertise fast transactions everywhere and than stuff like that happens  with default settings!
