'getbalance' does not match sum of 'listaccounts'

[praz]

Hi,

I found this strange behaviour of 'namecoind' version 32464..

Code: Select all

C:\nmc>namecoind getbalance
0.83939999

on the other hand..

Code: Select all

C:\nmc>namecoind listaccounts
{
    "" : -0.22450000,
    "BitcoinSuite" : 0.00000000,
    "NamecoinJ" : 0.00000000,
    "faucet.yepcorp.com" : 1.16190000,
    "mining.bitcoin.cz" : 0.02500000,
    "test" : 0.00699999
}

Apparently, the total balance returned by 'getbalance' (0.83939999) does not match the sum of balances in all accounts returned by 'listaccounts' (0.96939999)..

How are they supposed to be?

Yes, this does look strange.

They are out by 0.13, correct?

How is it that you have a negative balance in the "" account? Is this a transitory thing? (i.e. are there some fees that need to confirm or something)

Negative account balances happen when you do a "sendfrom" for the full amount in the account but a fee is charged. The full amount is transferred from the account and the fee puts in into negative.

about negative balance in default account "".. other than what explained by doublec.. first it happened when i did 'move' command from account "" which was initially empty to account "test"..

and after long time no activity.. currently my wallet shows..

Code: Select all

C:\nmc>namecoind getbalance
0.79439999

Code: Select all

C:\nmc>namecoind listaccounts
{
    "" : -0.21950000,
    "BitcoinSuite" : 0.00000000,
    "NamecoinJ" : 0.00000000,
    "faucet.yepcorp.com" : 1.16190000,
    "mining.bitcoin.cz" : 0.02500000,
    "test" : 0.00699999
}

there is still discrepancy about.. 0.97439999 - 0.79439999 = 0.18 ..

i wonder if anyone else has similar experience?

I've a diff also, of 7.76NMC... (getbalance is the fewer value)

[praz]

so which one is the real balance? .. and since namecoin is based on bitcoin.. bitcoin may have the same bug too..
