amount stuck in the exchange bot, please help :)

[errge]

Hey,

On 2017-10-20 around 19:30 UTC I wanted to do a sell Byteball, buy BTC exchange with the following data payment address given by the bot: DVUHSV7NB2MAZ4FXPDWYH6JFBHD3N2MI.

I don't understand completely why, but the chat and the whole system was very slow, and I had to request multiple times to get this inpayment address. Then the bot replied in a burst and this address was the last one, but it also mentioned this address: QSTCJWGPHOLRMC64B3FQMJ5EKHXVLU3U.

I already paid the 3.23 GBYTE to the DVUH... address in unit wyIECjF1Hjof41+NgsjeZdaEJq5xfteBFGf9cUtTCAw=, but the bot is not reacting to the payment and I'm afraid it's waiting on the QSTC... address.

Can you please take a look?

Checking the order book, I can say that the amount is not processed yet (the amount of the best buy order didn't change since my inpayment).

Cheers!

Yep, looked at the code, there needs to be a transaction around {check if address exists, generate new address, insert new address}.

Please double check my proposed fix, as I haven't tried running it and it's my first time using this callbackish sql transaction primitive of yours. :)

Ohh, and the 3.23 GBYTE that is stuck, I would prefer if you send it back to me, instead of pushing through the exchange on a random price.

Sorry for late reply, I didn't even know this github issue existed.
You are right, there was a race condition. However, I didn't accept your PR as sql transactions is not the right way to fix it, they are not locks. I fixed by using locks.
Sent the GB back, including +10% that you should have received from the November distribution.
