Yes, you are missing the "prevtxs".... you need to provide all the input information to signrawtransaction as well as createrawtransaction.

something like this:

Code:

signrawtransaction "UNSIGNED_TRANSACTION_HEX_FROM_CREATERAWTRANSACTION" '[{"txid": "11307beeced6797a9d84c9d2431f013dab2a1f5449e9459208fbd156dfb6e9b4", "vout": 1, "scriptPubKey": "SCRIPT_PUB_KEY_FOR_TRANSACTION", "amount": "AMOUNT_OF_ORIGINAL_INPUT"}]' '["PRIVATE_KEY"]'

Thank you, this worked.

you need to provide all the input information to signrawtransaction as well as createrawtransaction.

Or, you can copy the entire blockchain data directory from the online computer to the offline computer so that it can look up the inputs itself in the blockchain.

It can't sign without knowing what the inputs are. Your choices are to either provide the blockchain so they can be looked up, or provide the inputs as parameters to the signrawtransaction.

I would like to sign my transaction on an offline computer with bitcoin core. I already created the raw transaction (testnet) on an online computer with

Code:

createrawtransaction "[{\"txid\":\"11307beeced6797a9d84c9d2431f013dab2a1f5449e9459208fbd156dfb6e9b4\",\"vout\":0}]" "{\"mfeUWfwmuMPoLuANMFPHQhJ1YFYVtWnaqT\":0.01}"

Output

The next step would be to sign the transaction on an offline computer, therefor I tried to execute this code

Code:

signrawtransaction "0200000001b4e9b6df56d1fb089245e949541f2aab3d011f43d2c9849d7a79d6ceee7b30110000000000ffffffff0140420f00000000001976a914016c22d6025803eec522e04161e0cdf9d813d41088ac00000000"

Unfortunately I get this error

"Input not found or already spent" - I thought I need only to provide the transaction id when I create the transaction.

This is the help output from the console.
