Most likely it was just an issue with the DASH Node you were connected to (or some issue with the DASH network itself).

These secondary "altcoin" forks of Electrum, don't often have very good support... either with software or with their networks... they have limited nodes, nodes which aren't updated with lasted code updates etc which can often result in issues like this where you are unable to send transactions etc.

The best thing to try in most cases is to try connecting to a different server, or just give it a day and try again. Tongue

It's working now bob. I also don't think that's easy to do (you can't normally copy and paste from those windows...

UPD:
Checked again Electrum, and its been somehow sent despite the error. Thanks!

Let us know if there's any more issues. Did you try changing the server or did it just randomely work (as The Pharmacist said it would)...
Clicked on preview - Sign - Copy - Broadcast. Result was positive.

I've sent you the screenshot of error which I get exactly when I did mentioned.

Mind copy/pasting the output (the error) into [ code] and [ /code] tags here, so that everyone actually can look into it ?

This will not only help others to help you, but also other people with the same problem to find the thread (and hopefully also the solution).

According to blockcypher, Transaction Successfully Broadcst
But when I press Broadcast button in electrum got the error sent above...

It's an issue with the node that you're connected to.

In the main electrum window
Go to tools>network and click "server" and then uncheck the select server automatically and then select a different server to connect to and try again?

Does the error occur upon hitting the broadcast button, does it sign alright?

If it signs alright, then after hitting sign, click copy (on the bottom left) and paste it into this site : https://live.blockcypher.com/dash/pushtx/ to test if it's just an issue with the electrum dash nodes...

Try pressing the preview button next to the send button.

Then, in the bottom right corner, hit the sign button (you'll notice that the broadcast button is unclickable at this point).
Then, click the button next to that that says "broadcast" and report back if the same error occurs.

As a guess, I'd say you're trying to broadcast a transaction without a fee.

but you really ought to give us a screenshot of the entire electrum window for us to be able to offer anything...


Fee is maximal.

Yeah, I meant I kinda have to see all the amounts in the screenshot but OK if you want to keep that secret...

Can you try/have you tried going through the preview→sign→broadcast method instead, does it still get the same error?

This error I got sending by mentioned way.

I had this exact problem about 4 days ago.  It was weird, because I hadn't made any adjustments to my Electrum preferences or anything, and I'd never had any issues sending Dash before.

I kept fooling with the network fee, but nothing worked.  What finally happened is that I gave it 24 hours, and finally it worked.  I don't know what the issue was, but it seems to have resolved itself.  I'm going to keep an eye on this thread, because I'm interested to see if there's an answer for it.
I had an another error 2 weeks ago. Today I've got this one.
