running into issues using getrawtransaction

[pukelandwalker]

I'm trying to use getrawtransaction, and get the following error:

"No such mempool transaction. Blockchain transactions are still in the process of being indexed. Use gettransaction for wallet transactions."


When i check getblockchain info , initialblockdownload = FALSE. Doesnt that mean the indexing is complete?

Not exactly, the command that you need to use is getindexinfo txindex and see if the result is "synced": true

If you just enabled txindex=1, it may take hours or even days for it to complete depending on your machine's specs.
