best to remove the local transaction and start again via the send tab.

I found this link on GitHub : User mistakenly saves transactions locally instead of broadcasting. It seems that OP has a similar problem, and it can be solved in two ways :

  • Right click on transaction -> Details -> Broadcast.
  • Or by reverse local transaction - right click on transaction -> Remove.

But I am only spending the bitcoins that are there on my wallet.
Why is this problem occuring then?
What to do now?

According to electrum, you are trying to spend inputs you don't have the corresponding private key of.

What version of electrum are you using ?
And how did you create the transaction ? What were your actual steps ?

I had recently upgraded to electrum 3.2.3.

I was purchashing a gift card from nafa.in. And then I went to pay for it from my wallet like I usually do, to the address given on the payment page. But when I clicked on send, this error was shown by electrum.

in short you are trying to spend bitcoins that you don't own.

in other words you are spending a transaction output that doesn't belong to your key. maybe that transaction wasn't confirmed, or double spent and became invalid,... i can't tell without having more information but one thing is for sure, your transaction that you are trying to broadcast is invalid that is why it is being rejected.

go to your wallet, in history tab, and see if you can see any transaction that is marked unconfirmed or local. and see if you can find a transaction that starts with 426b28... it seems like this is the tx you are trying to spend and fail to do so.

Yes there is a transaction that starts with 426b28.., and yes, it still hasn't confirmed. But I am only spending the bitcoins that are there on my wallet.

Hi! Whenever I'm trying to pay someone, electrum is showing the above error. Once a transaction was shown as successful, but it is still unconfirmed in my wallet, and doesn't even show on blockchain.info.

The error looks like this http://prntscr.com/m6c52i

Can someone please help?

I am on electrum 3.2.3.
