I'm not 100% sure, but I think this means that the block gas limit is 5000, so your transaction is too big to fit in any single block. Are you on mainnet?

justintim-es commented 4 years ago

yes

palkeo commented 4 years ago

Is your node fully synced? What block is it at?

justintim-es commented 4 years ago

Can someone tell me if it is working before i send another 50 worth of ether, the minimum gas for a transaction is 21000

I think if you want assistance you will need to follow the issue template, include all the information that's required and describe your problem in more details.
