Yes, I was attempting to set up a delegate account. What is the effect of that flag?
beeing delegate is a very time-sensitive task .. in contrast .. scanning for TITAN (anonymous) transaction is very CPU intensive ..
the devs figured out that in early times that doing both might make your delegate miss blocks .. thus the disabled scanning transactions if a delegate is in the wallet ..
the CLI warns about that .. the GUI obviously does not ..
That's btw, the reason why you cannot register a delegate in the GUI anymore :)

Glad to see you recovered your funds.

I'll add this to the wiki page .. it's about time!

do you have a delegate in your wallet?
if so issue the following command

   wallet_set_transaction_scanning true

Thanks xeroc. I did get a response, but it's no longer in my command history. It's only a token amount. I did try restarting the client.

I've reproduced again. Sending 1 bts, which gets lost + the 0.5 fee.

- did you get any command reply to the "wallet_transfer"? it should have contained the transactionID
- try restarting the client

xxxx (unlocked) >>> blockchain_is_synced
true

wallet_transfer 90 BTS xxx  xxx

> wallet_account_balance
shows account less 90 bts ,

> wallet_account_transaction_history
doesn't show the transaction

I was testing voting approval and the votes did register.  Only the bts didn't come back to me!
