TX rejected (code -22) error with old coins, tried reinstating wallet from seed Electrum v1.9.7, Tried on both Win 7 and 8

[aspiring1]

Hi guys. I'm trying to send some coins 0.344 from one wallet to another with the default fees, but the following pops up.

"error: {u'message': u'TX rejected', u'code': -22}"

I understand that this can be the case with newly mined coins, but my coins have been in that wallet for many weeks now.

Alsof for reference purposes, this issue is similar to the below closed issue.
#391

code -22 is the default answer from bitcoind if it doesn't accept the tx. tx size could be too large for the fee or inputs could already be spent and so forth. The only easy way to debug is to get a server operator to look at the debug file of bitcoind when you send your tx.

probably the same problem as #493, fixed by 12e9f49
let me know if it is fixed in 1.9.8
