    Hello I tried to buy some tickets yesterday and didnt get the ticket fee right in the beginning and suddently I got some errors. After that I noticed that I missed 930 decred ?? A memeber on btc talk said to me I had to delete my wallet.db file and restore from seed. So I did that and now onother 600 dcr is missing so a total of 1530 decred is just gone?? How is this possible?? Its a lot of money and i'm really stressing out just wanted to buy some tickets who are btw also gone. can someone please explain to me what is happening?

    What does
    Code:
    dcrctl --wallet getstakeinfo
    show?

    And how about the following?
    Code:
    dcrctl --walllet getbalance
    You can omit your total balance if you want. I'm just looking for the lockedbytickets and spendable sections.

    Oh, ok, you're using Paymetheus. I'm not the best with troubleshooting Paymetheus because I don't use it, but someone more familiar should come along to help.

    I can help you get setup on the CLI tools if you want... they provide a lot more flexibility towards troubleshooting.

    Thanks but I dont even know what CLI is (command line interface :p..?) I have told my problem in the support section of slack they where very response there. problem is for a noob tech guy like myself its hard to solve.. They say that the 1.0 version will solve these problems so if I cant figure it out I have to wait till then.

    I have 'lost' my funds several times now, but always recovered, mostly using 'rescanwallet' command. Software is not perfect at this stage.

    Are you still having the issue?

    This was happened to me today. I came across this thread by searching the forum.

    What happens to me is after some failed ticket buying today, I have found some of my dcrs are missing, I checked my log, nothing special. I believe it is happened after this:

    Code:
    02:32:17 2017-04-18 [INF] WLLT: Successfully sent SStx purchase transaction 2d61XXXXXXXXXXXREMOVEDXXXXXXXXXXXXX

    02:35:42 2017-04-18 [INF] TKBY: Limiting to 5 purchases per block
    02:35:42 2017-04-18 [ERR] TKBY: Failed to purchase tickets this round: insufficient funds available to construct transaction
    
    Luckily my dcr returned after rescan the wallet.

    Code:
    ./bin/dcrctl --wallet rescanwallet
    
    I did not fire a ISSUE report, since I do not sure is this just a glitch(may cause by shitty network?), or something else.

    I will keep monitoring this.

    I think my issue here is that my wallet think I did purchased 5 tickets successfully, but it is never got on the mainnet blockchain, then the fund got missing(to some address?). The rescan will recover it.

    Indeed inconsistent. I do not use ticketbuyer but clearly it should not report successful ticket purchase if it didn't happen.

    Did you find any of your obfuscated transactions in the blockchain explorer?

    Ticketbuyer was the default behavior for purchasing tickets, with the high volatility in ticket fee, I decided switching to the new default behavior and this happened. I did not observer other issue yet.
