Confusion about `unloadwallet`

Confusion about `unloadwallet`

It's not clear to me how unloaded wallets behave in Bitcoin Core v0.17.0.1.

If I create a new wallet with createwallet, add a receiving address to it using importmulti, then unload it using unloadwallet:

  1. Will bitcoind still detect payments to this wallet’s address(es)? (seems yes)
  2. If yes, will that detection happen only when I use loadwallet again? (seems yes)
  3. If yes, will that require a rescan of (recent) blocks? (I'm worried about how long this might take, if it's been months or years since I last loaded this wallet.)
  4. If yes, will that be a problem on a pruned node?
  5. If yes, should I avoid this multi-wallet feature on a pruned node, or is there a safe way to use it without risking large re-downloads? (e.g. never unload it)

sendrawtransaction and txn-mempool-conflict

sendrawtransaction and txn-mempool-conflict When i sendrawtransaction to bitcoind, i get error (exceptions) 18: txn-mempool-conflict (use Bitcoin JSON-RPC denpamusic/php-bitcoinrpc ) But the transaction is sent to the network and is subsequently confirmed. Example one decoded transaction : https://jsfiddle.net/rn58a4j6/ then i send this transaction: 94ec12fc463230b4285a29b047608627c05572a4c6eabe6688a201ce49ae72f7 https://ift.tt/2MY2KP0

couldn't connect to server: EOF reached (code 1)

couldn't connect to server: EOF reached (code 1) I'm running a full node on my raspberry pi3. I try to do a simple command such as bitcoin-cli getblockchaininfo but I always get this error: error: couldn't connect to server: EOF reached (code 1) (make sure server is running and you are connecting to the correct RPC port) My bitcoin.conf file looks like this: Bitcoind options server=1 daemon=1 reindex-chainstate=1 reindex=1 txindex=1 disablewallet=1 listenonion=0 Connection settings rpcuser= * rpcpassword=* rpcport=8332 rpcallowip=127.0.0.1 rpcthreads=10 I also tried to get a command with "bitcoin-cli -rpcuser: * - rpcpassword=* -rpcportt8332 getblockchaininfo". But this also didn't work. Does someone has some advice or experience with this error? https://ift.tt/2D82TLW
