Bitcoin : [BCH Development] In BitcoinABC debug console I use “gettransaction”, but it is not finding the transaction – how is this possible?
First I use “getblock” to get a confirmed block.
`getblock 00000000000000000050b6036047207a9d22d36b985a458d227947b3287a30ec`
The result shows that transaction “9aa8452423e661c9cdf2a0dc37c7f31ca8904163ce8cdc55cfc2b33239a0269e” exists.
but when I type:
`gettransaction “9aa8452423e661c9cdf2a0dc37c7f31ca8904163ce8cdc55cfc2b33239a0269e”`
I get:

`Invalid or non-wallet transaction id (code -5)`
I also try:

`getrawtransaction “9aa8452423e661c9cdf2a0dc37c7f31ca8904163ce8cdc55cfc2b33239a0269e”`
and get:

`No such mempool or blockchain transaction. Use gettransaction for wallet transactions. (code -5)`
I try some other transactions from that same block and get their contents just fine…but this transaction, and quite a few others give me that error.
What is going on?
[Note that this transaction can be found in various explorers](https://www.blockdozer.com/tx/9aa8452423e661c9cdf2a0dc37c7f31ca8904163ce8cdc55cfc2b33239a0269e)
