Hey everyone, I set up a wallet in bdb format with avoid_reuse=false in Bitcoin Core version 26.0.0 for some testing and imported the relevant transactions manually using importprunedfunds. This worked fine for all incoming payments, but I hit a wall trying to import the outgoing transactions. I got an error message:
I checked the 'Receiving Addresses' and 'Sending Addresses' sections in Windows. My wallet address shows up under 'Receiving Addresses' as expected, which is why the import for incoming transactions went smoothly. However, the 'Sending Addresses' section is blank. I tried adding my same address there, but it failed with another error message:
I know reusing addresses can be risky, but since this is just a test wallet with no valuable coins, I’m okay with it. I really just want to import the outgoing transactions too. Am I missing something? Do I need to launch Bitcoin Core with specific parameters to bypass some deprecated option that I might not know about? Or is this a bug that hasn't been fixed yet? Any help would be awesome. Thanks!
