php-wallet-sample's Issues

Testnet transactions not working

Hello,

I am using your curl api, and its been working great. Until now. I have two testnet addresses and private keys, I am using compressed pubkeys and the correct private keys and addresses. It was all working fine and things have gone wrong, I will either get a "not enough inputs for outputs" error for an address which clearly has enough funds OR the transaction will go through but never actually gets recognized by the test3 blockchain and the transaction ID does not work when looking it up on 3rd party testnet blockexplorers such as testnet.blockchain.info, strangely it does come up on your blockexplorer though.

Digging a bit deeper I realize the issue is that i am using your api for the transactions but using testnet.blockchain.info to check balances and transaction history, the problem is with address mjLnTNcCWZ5baqSYWnsrATPBBfPMvfd82N, the transactions are not getting any confirmations.

Why is this? Is it an attack on test3 chain?

Id like to be able to test my app across multiple blockexplorer api's, is this a bug. If you would like more info please let me know. Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks
