Account renaming issue #65

Closed UGatgithub closed 6 years ago

UGatgithub commented 6 years ago

I have 3 Ether accounts that I named Ether UG, Ether UG2 and Ether UG3.

  1. Ether UG2 I renamed to Augur UG.
  2. When I want to rename Ether UG3 to Ether UG2 Etherwall renames Augur UG back to Ether UG2 instead.

I use the Details dialog box for renaming and for me this looks like there is some bug.

Hey, would it be possible to have a look at your regexp entries for etherwall? I assume you're on windows.

I only need to see the ones in the [accounts] section which match the hash of the address in question. You should be able to export the etherwall regexp entries into a file and edit that so it only has what I need.

NOTE: etherwall's config never stores any "sensitive" information (e.g. password or password hashes or anything like that). It does store addresses and their config (e.g. names, being default, etc.) and transaction history.

I'm not 100% sure I follow your renaming tho.

Ether UG2 being renamed to Augur UG is address "A" correct? Ether UG3 trying to be renamed to Ether UG2 is a different address "B"?

I suppose in this case you're renaming A to something else first and then B to what A used to be called?

Oh I see, I got it to happen too now. You can "workaround" for now by using right click menu and doing "alias account name". That way seems to work fine.

I'll work on a fix :) Thanks for reporting.

Workaround works correctly, thanks for picking up on the issue quickly!
