Vanishing assets #136

Closed israellevin closed 10 years ago

israellevin commented 10 years ago

After a few minutes of running the GUI, following some random transaction (sometimes issuance, sometimes a send), the balance of all my assets, including bitcoin, becomes zero.

This is persistent across machines, on debian and ubuntu, with a development virtualenv and with the prebuilt binaries I downloaded from the site.

I followed the instructions in the README closely, maybe they are out of date? Maybe I need to use some specific stable branch?

Wallet reports balance according to coins (UTXOs) it sees, it might report zero balance if UTXO list isn't available.

We're going to release a new version soon, hopefully it will work better. (The problem might be that UTXO sources used for testnet aren't reliable.)

Hi killerstorm, thank you for the speedy reply.

What are the UTXO sources you are referring to? I'm pretty new to bitcoin, so all I could think of was checking bitcoind listunspent, which seems to work, and blockexplorer.com which shows a positive balance in my addresses.

I'll also be grateful if you point me in the right direction and tell me where this is handled in the code.

Edit: I took a look at wallet.db, and select * from utxo_data; returns nothing.

This no longer happens with the new version! Closing.
