"script failed an OP_EQUALVERIFY operation" trying to send from wallet with 11K addresses
See original GitHub issueI have a standard wallet with a lot of (~11,000) addresses and have been having issues sending various amounts ranging from 0.001 to 3 BTC from it. I think the problem only occurs when my transaction has many inputs. I’ve been transferring BTC into a new wallet, and I have to keep retrying until I happen to get a transaction with only a few inputs.
When it fails, I get an OP_EQUALVERIFY failure. Here’s an example error from trying to send 1 BTC to my new wallet:
error: {'message': 'the transaction was rejected by network rules.\n\n16: mandatory-script-verify-flag-failed (Script failed an OP_EQUALVERIFY

I still can’t reproduce this, though I’m on master not 3.0.6, it might be less likely there, or maybe it’s due to the difference in our hardware/OS/etc. Anyway I’m guessing this is a concurrency bug.
First off, that address index you pasted is wrong, it’s not 375, it should be 374.
You are calling this function in a loop: https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/blob/82e88cb89df35288b80dfdbe071da74247351251/lib/wallet.py#L1637-L1646
Notice that there is no locking there on the globals; and access will become contended as soon as you find a used address and the synchronizer notices this, which happens on a different thread.
https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/blob/82e88cb89df35288b80dfdbe071da74247351251/lib/network.py#L972-L977 https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/blob/82e88cb89df35288b80dfdbe071da74247351251/lib/synchronizer.py#L181-L184 https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/blob/82e88cb89df35288b80dfdbe071da74247351251/lib/wallet.py#L1660-L1664 https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/blob/82e88cb89df35288b80dfdbe071da74247351251/lib/wallet.py#L1648-L1658
The synchronizer will also start calling
createnewaddress, and while it will take wallet.lock, your script won’t care, there is no testing for it increatenewaddress.What version of Electrum?
