Yes, a rescan has solved the problem.

I wonder why it was not automatic?

because I was accidentally running an earlier binary.... Doh!!!!!!!   Roll Eyes

Anyway, that is a relief.

Thanks for the reminder.

Which version of bitcoin are you using?

On 0.3.21, it should have done a rescan automatically.
Earlier versions will need to be started with the -rescan switch once.

Sorry - just edited post but you beat me to it.

I will see if running it with -rescan helps.....

Hi,

Something a little disturbing.

I recently restored a wallet backup.

I have paid 99 BTC to this address on (2011-03-20 04:47:46), but the wallet is not showing the payment as received. It is showing a 1 BTC payment that was made another time (2011-03-19 23:46:38).


The wallet is showing a balance of 1 when it should be 100.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

dM


I should clarify that the transaction is not showing at all, this does not seem to be an issue like long latency confirmation, I have not seen anything like this before.
Currently running bitcoin 3.20.2
