transaction stalled forever

I don't get your point..

exquisitus

the point is that the transaction never reaches the state of executed/finalized/whatever, never ever. i just stays in "pending", both clients work and work hard, exchanging messages, but not those that they should. imagine you are trying to buy something, you send ether, and it never ever arrives at the recipient. that makes the whole system highly suspect in terms of usability. liveness condition enforcement perhaps?

@exquisitus‌: not sure what you mean either, even after you described it a bit. What platforms/clients/ are you using? Are you mining? It looks like you are on a private chain. If you have uncovered an interop bug in poc 6.8b 32-1 please raise an issue at https://github.com/ethereum/cpp-ethereum/issues. Thank you
