I am trying to send ether on private network. from chain1 to chain2. But it does not proceed. (But no error occures.)

> eth.getBalance(eth.accounts[1])
4999580000000000000

> eth.getBalance(eth.accounts[2])

0

I unlocked my account too...

> personal.unlockAccount(eth.accounts[1])
Unlock account 0xddc25843a212978640dedb119b9720f38da50d09
Passphrase: 
true

Transaction from the chain1 to the chain2

eth.sendTransaction({from: eth.accounts[1], to: eth.accounts[2], value: web3.toWei(2, "ether")})
"0x876cdad3f665434816a531f2bd303414d8c72b16339d6ff84f22ecafd354e666"

It looks like the transaction has been processed but..

> eth.getBalance(eth.accounts[2])
0

It did not..

  • You need to be mining for a transaction to go through

Thanks to @joe on the comment, the problem was that I was not mining. On the private net, you need to be mining to get the transaction done.
