when i try to do a send transaction using “./bitcoin-cli -regtest sendtoaddress xxxxxx 10”
I get an error:
error code: -6
error message:
Fee estimation failed. Fallbackfee is disabled. Wait a few blocks or enable -fallbackfee.

Enable fallbackfee: -fallbackfee='0.00001'

I’m stuck

./bitcoin-cli -regtest sendtoaddress bcrt1qrnamh3qhz0cpjj75l9n3v9dadc0da37q48ufxl 10
error code: -6
error message:
Fee estimation failed. Fallbackfee is disabled. Wait a few blocks or enable -fallbackfee.

Someone can help ?

PS C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\daemon> ./bitcoin-cli -regtest getbalance
150.00000000

Thanks !

I tried -fallbackfee=‘0.00001’ but I receive an error. Is there a different way to right ?

You have to set the fallback fee in the daemon, not cli.

Hello!!! I’m having some issues while running bitcond and the testnet. When I try to run bitcoind with the command .\bitcond -printtoconsole I get the following error message:

I can run testnet without any problem, but when I try to generate a new address on a new Power Shell window (while having Bitcoin Core closed) with the following command .\bitcoin-cli -testnet -getnewaddress I get the following error message:

Is this because I’m running the newest verstion of Bitcon Core? If this is not the reason, then how can I fix it?

Thank you!!!

bitcoin-cli is not in the daemon folder. I’m not sure where it should be on windows. Check the Bitcoin folder in program files for the CLI executable and then change your shell directory there.

Hi there, its because you have the command input wrong.

it should be

./bitcoind -printtoconsole

you missing the (i) in bitcoin

Good luck
