I need help (transactions will not confirm)

[E-TARD]

I was playing around with the bitcoin.conf file
mintxfee
limitfreerelay
mintxrelayfee
but when I learned more about the settings & what can happen when you change them
I quickly changed everything back to how it was when everything was working fine
but I did send some coin before new more about the settings.

they are not showing up on blockchain.info
I'm not really new to bitcoin, I know a lot but when it comes to transactions there are some holes in my knowledge.

Here's the getrawtransaction 2f645e16bc2d4d00631ffc36cf5208f3735b537d4f84948980f69b0923dde457 1

I'm not sure if they will ever be confirmed after looking at the fee.

I just want to know what will happen & is there anything I can do?
I know its much coin, like $30 or something but I would like it to confirm or come back to me.

You can delete these transactions.

Transaction:

https://blockchain.info/tx/2f645e16bc2d4d00631ffc36cf5208f3735b537d4f84948980f69b0923dde457

is HUGE:  54355 (bytes)

AND you did not include any fee:  0.00000055 BTC is the same as no fee

Estimated Confirmation Time    15 hours (queue position 3538)

The other transaction:

https://blockchain.info/tx/5fc128379e8d140fb3d8b53e52d4c7b1719c9151f22c947a69546b0f04a8bacf

is even bigger:  91942 (bytes)

also with no fee:  0.00000096 BTC is the same as no fee

Estimated Confirmation Time    15 hours (queue position 3428)

BTW you have four more unconfirmed transactions:

again all pretty big

all non standard and all have less than the recommended fee.

You can wait a few days or as suggested above try to delete them.

I think you can contact the owner of blockchain and they can refund it for a fee. not sure

[E-TARD]

Yeah I know about that tool pywallet.py
its kind of a pain to use,
don't like working with Python in windows, I guess I could move my .dat over to my linode box
they really need to add a delete command to bitcoin-qt.

oh so now it shows up on blockchain.info  

@Mondy
and why would blockchain.info do that?

[BurtW]

If it were me I would just wait a few days.  If after that they are still not in a block then go through the pain to delete them.

If you used Blockchain as the wallet, you can get them to cancel the transaction I think.

I will just w8 & see what happens. 

but if it never confirms & I don't delete it will it F up anything months down the line?

I recall that the coins will be returned if it doesn't confirm in 72 hours or something like that.

[CIYAM]

I recall that the coins will be returned if it doesn't confirm in 72 hours or something like that.

The bitcoin-qt client will keep trying to resend the tx forever until you remove it (my advice for a tx like that would be to use pywallet to delete it then wait for a day before trying to send another tx that has an appropriate fee).

If you don't know what you're talking about, please don't waste people's time and confuse newbies with random guesses that are completely useless.

[E-TARD]

I got sick of w8ing
& used the pywallet to delete the transactions
got the coin back & everything is working fine now.

Also its easy to use pywallet if you have a Linux box available to run it on.
Doing it in windows is a pain in the ass.
I feel someone needs to take pywallet & redo it into an .exe but remove the web service interface part of it & make it a command line only interface.
This way windows user will not have to install python & will not have to F with IIS web services witch is a pain in the ass & sux to use anyways.


I do want to thank everyone who has taken the time to help me with this.  
your all good members of bitcointalk
