Error: Failed to check for transaction receipt

[justintim-es]

web3.eth.personal.unlockAccount('0x12AdF37d82D978fD72bfcC95Ca09C0D91Bb4F4d3', password).then(unlock => {
    if(unlock) {
        web3.eth.sendTransaction({
            value: '18835938971557730',
            from: '0x12AdF37d82D978fD72bfcC95Ca09C0D91Bb4F4d3',
            to: '0x478a286CD2Cc5D997c2AA45C6CA79A2b7c1676eD'
        }).then(console.log)
    }
})

Gives me the follwing error

Believe this is a race-condition issue at OE, documented in openethereum 10672. It's also reported here at #2213.

Do you see this with any other client? Can you provide any additional details about your OE client setup?

[justintim-es]

Openethreum version: v3.0.0 Operating system: linux Fully synchronized: no Restarted: yes

Im retrying now with v3.0.1

[justintim-es]

I ran this in the console

./openethereum --jsonrpc-interface "ip" --jsonrpc-apis "all" --js
onrpc-hosts "all" --jsonrpc-cors "all"

Apologies, if this is only happening on OE and OE 10762 remains unresolved I think it's a problem they'll have to address.

Closing as duplicate of #2213.
