Topic: Testnet: Why are my transactions not being relayed (Read 553 times)
Bitcoind will periodically try to submit pending transactions from its memory pool to the network. However if you shut it down, I believe the memory pool gets wiped out, so then you have to send it again manually.
Hello,
I've posted a bunch of transactions to the testnet using bitcoind "sendrawtransaction" API call. I've seen different behaviors depending on the transaction.
A bunch of them seem to have been accepted by bitcoind, propagated to the network and were later included in a block. Here's a copy of the filtered debug log for some of these:
However some others simply don't seem to actually get out:
Here his how the first not-propagating transaction looks like when deserialized:
I've included a 0.0001 BTC transaction on all of these transactions, and all of them are below 1 kiB. Am I doing anything wrong?
As I said before, the transactions are sent using bitcoind's "sendrawtransaction", but none of the inputs or the outputs of the transaction have anything to do with the wallet maintained by bitcoind. In this case, should I periodically call "sendrawtransaction" with my transactions until I finally see them in a block, or will bitcoind do that on its own (even after the client restarts)?

I've included a 0.0001 BTC transaction on all of these transactions, and all of them are below 1 kiB. Am I doing anything wrong?
As I said before, the transactions are sent using bitcoind's "sendrawtransaction", but none of the inputs or the outputs of the transaction have anything to do with the wallet maintained by bitcoind. In this case, should I periodically call "sendrawtransaction" with my transactions until I finally see them in a block, or will bitcoind do that on its own (even after the client restarts)?
