p2sh(p2spkh) to p2sh(p2wsh)multi transaction error when using coinselect about coinselect HOT 6 CLOSED

You can close this if you wish. I'm not seeing that error anymore and cannot recreate it.

please hold off on this - this is the wrong stack trance. I will reproduce the correct one and update. The trace is like this but I'll get one associated to its trans hex and post:

ok. confirmations.. works when I form transactions only from confimed txids.
So you can't spend money you don't own? Who would have thought..
Is there a config option to have conselect only select txids with min conf 1?

from coinselect.

@PeterGarner there isn't an option, but, is there any reason you feel you can't pre-filter them yourself?

works when I form transactions only from confimed txids.

That shouldn't necessarily be the case, and specifically isn't the error provided above (bad script).

from coinselect.

@dcousens, none at all, for your first point. For you second, I haven't seen any errors since filtering zeros but the errors I did see were probably due to issues with the addresses I was trying to use at the time (or just bad scripting).
Regarding my bad script, if you were just referring to my amateur syntax, then sorry but I'm as new to nodejs as I am to your libraries and have just been focusses on getting things working. However, if there is a specific programatic step which looks bad please let me know.
The only problem I have now with coinselect is that I need to explain how it works in my thesis..

core.BitcoindException: Error #-26: 16: mandatory-script-verify-flag-failed

That means the script (an input) that you provided bitcoind is bad, aka, invalid.
I don't know what part is wrong though.
It may be that you were providing an unknown/invalid txId.
