      I have one of my testers in London reporting that their Feathercoin wallet is not reporting the right amount. It is showing 227FTC in the account despite the blockchain reporting the correct amount of 628FTC

      [url=http://explorer.feathercoin.com/address/71cPFnvVMjgTmziurGtqpj384c69bS8PpE]http://explorer.feathercoin.com/address/71cPFnvVMjgTmziurGtqpj384c69bS8PpE[/url]

      He is using the latest version of the Mac client and the Green Tick is present in the bottom right corner of the window.

      Do he need to rebuild the blockchain or something?

      Thanks so much,

      C

        Pick up the mac, put it in the bin, buy a PC, reinstall wallet. :P

        Seriously though, there is a switch that you can start the wallet with the rescans the chain. Can’t for the life of me remember what it is though…

        -rescan I think.

        Posting from phone so tough to look it up too. :-[

          “feathercoin-qt.exe -rescan” is correct on windows… I have same probems myself recently, and it didn’t really help :(

          If the Blockchain isn’t up to date why is there a green tick in the wallet?

            That’s not what rescan does: it rescans the entire block chain rebuilding the list of interesting inputs. The block chain can be complete, but the wallet may have missed/forgotten about some inputs. Doing this should fix the problem, despite the fact that it’s already up to date.

                My wallet is having a similar problem. Transaction NOT showing up and balance incorrect! This happened after I upgraded to 6.4.4. Wallet gave an error when the transaction was supposed to show up: “EXCEPTION: 11DbException Db::get: Not enough space” … but I have enough space(!) I tried the rescan option suggested in this thread. After that the error disappears but still no sign of the transaction and balance remains incorrect.

                  Hi Azure, I posted the fix for this in the thread below which has worked for others.

                  [url=http://forum.feathercoin.com/index.php/topic,3915.msg30416.html#msg30416]http://forum.feathercoin.com/index.php/topic,3915.msg30416.html#msg30416[/url]

                  I believe we are seeing problems with people who ran old clients after the hard fork. The link above will instruction you on how to clear your database and blockchain.
