New method with 0.9+ built directly into core client:
-rescan Rescan the block chain for missing wallet transactions
-zapwallettxes Clear list of wallet transactions (diagnostic tool; implies -rescan)
It does exactly what it says - it rebuilds the transaction list from the officially confirmed blocks.
Naturally, get a reliable wallet backup first.
First step:
"C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe" -rescan
Second step:
"C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe" -zapwallettex
Or is it:
"C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe" -rescan -zapwallettex
in one command line?
The -zapwallettex inlcudes a rescan, no need to specify it separately.
kk thx, but didnt work.
Tried to run pywallet, but got this error message:
C:\Python27>python c:\python27\scripts\./pywallet.py --web
File "c:\python27\scripts\./pywallet.py", line 6
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
What is this? Any other ideas on how to get bitcoins back from zero-confirmation-transactions? 4 days past and no confirmation ^^
