I just checked mails and found a wallet.dat from Joopii in one of them.

Bitcoin core saw 5 conflicted/unconfirmed TX.

zapwallettxes removed all, here is the partial log, will send the full log file with all transactions IDs along with the wallet.dat back to OP.

Code:

I sent a Bitcoin transaction of 8.5 btc 3 days and 8 hours ago with a fee of 0.0001 btc and it still does not have a single confirmation. I tested sending a few smaller transactions since then and they got confirmed shortly after.
Is it normal to take so long and is there any way to speed up the process?

Go To: blockchain.info/address/"youraddress" (replacing "youraddress" with the address you used to send the transaction or the receiving address)
If the transaction doesn't appear then it may be beneficcial to know where you sent it from (what application or service) and you may want to contact one fo the bitcoin developers which are on this forum and are marked on the forum as a bitcoin developer. The only thing that I can think is because it is a high amount, the network may want to get many confirmatoion first, but it should still show iwth a pendig message next to it. Why not post the transaction ID or the address in the OP too to help people understand your problem?

Please dont do this here.

Sorry! Forgot to read past the OP until I posted!
Do What? Give a recommendation? Or the typos?
Please don't post before reading the rest of the thread. It is highly likely that whatever you are going to say has already been said. So general rule of thumb to avoid spamming this forum is to read the whole thread before answering the question in the OP, and only post if you have something to add, and are not repeating anything.

Actually now after reinstalling Python I'm having a different error message:
"WARNING:root:pycrypto or libssl not found, decryption may be slow
'twisted' package is not installed, pywallet web interface can't be launched"
Download the right file you need from here: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/zope.interface/4.1.3#downloads. It should be one of the py2.7 files, either 86 or 64 bit depending on your os. Download the .egg file. Then open the command prompt and type
Code:
easy_install
where is the path to the file wherever you downloaded the file to.

If it says it cannot find easy_install, then find the easy_install.exe file and instead of typing easy_install, type the full path to the exe file.

For example, the file for me is located in C:\Python27\Scripts so I would put
Code:
C:\Python27\Scripts\easy_install.exe

Do the same thing if it says python is not found. It should just be in the python install folder and be named python.exe

No working solution found so far, still giving 0,1 btc to anyone who can find a way to fix this.
Did mine not work? It should have removed the transaction so that you can spend.
When I typed "python pywallet.py --web" in cmd, it returned "'python' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."
Any idea what I did wrong?
Looks to me like you don't have Python installed on the system your trying to run this fix from.

https://www.python.org/downloads/
Reinstalled Python and it still gives the same error.

Also, does it necessarily have to be Python 2.7 as stated in https://github.com/jackjack-jj/pywallet or can I use the newest version?
Definitely go with the v2.7 as stated in the github docs.

As to why it's giving you the same error I'm not entirely sure.  The error message your giving seems to indicate the OS can't find python on your system.  Do you currently have a path setup to your python directory?
Actually now after reinstalling Python I'm having a different error message:
"WARNING:root:pycrypto or libssl not found, decryption may be slow

That error message is inidicative of a missing package.  If you refer to the instructions on github you'll see:

Windows:
 1. Install Python 2.7
 2. Install Twisted 11.0.0 for Py2.7, then Zope.Interface (a .egg file) for Py2.7: http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/Downloads

This does happen and the end result is about 50% in your favor.  If there was any error at all in the address or anything like that it can get hung up.  Depending on the service that you used, it may or may not be returned.

It has been a week since the transaction was made and it has still not verified.
I am willing to send 0,1 btc to anyone who can help me fix this issue.

So far I have done:
-I had my wallet open all the time
-I tried re-installing the blocks
-I tried to use zapwallettxes to delete the unconfirmed transaction. This didn't change anything.
-I tried sending the raw transaction through the console, which did not work (TX rejected (code -22))
Try this, it might be a little risky though.

First backup your wallet to a safe location. Then download pywallet from https://github.com/jackjack-jj/pywallet. Install everything that it tells you to install on the README. Then open up a command prompt and go to the folder which contains pywallet.py. Type into the command prompt
Code:
python pywallet.py --web
Then in your browser go to http://localhost:8989/ Click on the delete tab. In the box labeled "Keys" type
Code:
all
Click the radio button under type which is Transactions. Then click Delete. It should say something like
Code:
tx:all has been successfully deleted from wallet.dat, resulting in x deleted item
if it works.
Then start up Bitcoin core like you did earlier from the command prompt with zapwallettxes but instead of having the option -zapwallettxes, make it the option -rescan.

This should remove all of the transactions from your wallet and then it should rescan the blockchain for the transactions. This should only get all of the confirmed transactions so you should be able to spend your coins normally again.

I tried zapwallettxes but nothing changed. Is there anything else I can do?
Was the transaction in question removed from your wallet? It should have been removed since it is still unconfirmed.

Have you tried sending another transaction after you did zapwallettxes?
After doing zapwallettxes, the transaction still shows in my wallet. Nothing changed.
I tried to do a smaller transaction just a few minutes ago and it was succesfully confirmed.

You are not the first that reports -zapwallettxes not working. Not sure what the issues is though. I had a few stuck TX myself and it worked every time.

Maybe rebroadcast the transaction?
How would I do that?
You have to do what shorena said, but it doesn't work for you because of an error

Error code -22 means that there was an error in validating the transaction. Please post the output of your getrawtransaction command so that other people can try broadcasting for you as well. You can also try broadcasting it on various pushtx interfaces like https://blockchain.info/pushtx
The raw transaction is here:
010000000375543fbecc1e69cb6dfb38c8c1a7847088a125bcced7a91c1cf335c887d6ba2d00000 0006a4730440220219fe21d2d947ef6fc7802406269b47e7d62b6bc069cc4bd43651d97ec36e149 02207f25b17cb1b1bf21f457c07d9f68da84abe28a5a4ae111d8fb523ef4c148f859012102cdf6c b06664b647bc8935bdf4b052e10ad6b758ac2888d5db6053ad8ba05e68cffffffff132e3f3dcda1 bee514097eace3fd89d66a0e6fd75ec7086fab573d5f2382e327010000006c493046022100b67e8 4f2d24cc69e5a5ff755ba6d06525f3c9e4b260446827acfd9a74ca77d7e022100dbc74f91093fed d55a3cb00062134326be655430c448efc9afb30a813abb5493012103e51858147fd99c7a53cbcbb 61dc7f28bd80c841be346230f85e27829611e7d8dffffffff04bc32c5b42857af03af6c81d26465 ccef379a45e678f9c34bd8d492e512565a010000006b48304502200b8a06c99345ee30a476ee369 a2a8762765e9d5abc4daef35649c884671d2988022100aa42882c36a0cfe62272fb3f3715c986ea da7344b309267e6f8471f2ac0e41cc0121039fc050d66cea72b6f8c882df05f7b51afdab9b1817f cf8b74f74ce703a0ad749ffffffff0280f8a932000000001976a9144fbe0d312290f5fcdbb78864 52808074dcec230e88ac343a9001000000001976a91468307edb518c000a17b013e9736f969a1c1 a945c88ac00000000
The problem is that the input transactions that transaction references don't exist. Those transactions referenced by this one were malleated, they had High S signatures and someone malleated their transaction to use Low S signatures. The original transactions with the High S were then discarded by most of the network so those remained unconfirmed while the other malleated transaction was the one that was confirmed. You will need to create a new transaction that uses the inputs that were confirmed. Try using zapwallettxes then sending the transaction again.
I tried zapwallettxes but nothing changed. Is there anything else I can do?

The problem is that the input transactions that transaction references don't exist. Those transactions referenced by this one were malleated, they had High S signatures and someone malleated their transaction to use Low S signatures. The original transactions with the High S were then discarded by most of the network so those remained unconfirmed while the other malleated transaction was the one that was confirmed. You will need to create a new transaction that uses the inputs that were confirmed. Try using zapwallettxes then sending the transaction again.

Maybe rebroadcast the transaction?
How would I do that?

Weird because you've paid the full recommended miners fees..... Most of these cases are from people trying to save that 2 cents and ends up waiting ages for their bitcoins to arrive.

Sorry for the late reply, it took a couple days when I attempted to reinstall the blocks to my wallet, which did not help and my payment still hasn't been confirmed.
I just tested resending the transaction as you suggested but when I enter the "sendrawtransaction", it returns "TX rejected (code -22)".

Also opening the wallet with zapwallettxes did not change anything.

Have you checked to see if the transaction went through?

https://blockchain.info/

"Sorry we could not find any blocks or transactions matching this hash".
However I can still see the transaction on my wallet and the Bitcoins were removed from my wallet.

Which wallet software / service do you use? Its possible that the transaction was not properly send to the network or is forgotten by now.
I'm using the wallet from Bitcoin.org

Bitcoin core? They link many popular wallets -> https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet

Assuming its core you can resend the transaction as is via the console (Help -> Debug Window -> console) or remove it from your wallet (see below)

First you need the transaction in its raw form. Which you can get by just asking the wallet with:
getrawtransaction TX-ID-here

It will return a long string to rebroadcast the TX write:
sendrawtransaction long-string-here

it should confirm with the TX-ID from step one.

To remove the unconfirmed TX from your wallet and create a new one via the GUI as usual:

#1 close bitcoin core
#2 start it with -zapwallettxes, e.g. for windows you open run (Win + R) and enter the following before you confirm with ok.
Code:
c:\Program Files\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe -zapwallettxes


Try using multisignature copay wallet

I sent a Bitcoin transaction of 8.5 btc 3 days and 8 hours ago with a fee of 0.0001 btc and it still does not have a single confirmation. I tested sending a few smaller transactions since then and they got confirmed shortly after.
Is it normal to take so long and is there any way to speed up the process?
Intresting. Your fee is ok. Cant wait to see what experts going to answer
