The listtransactions command does not display transactions when restoring a wallet from a backup #20293

Description

@du2zy

In March, I made a backup of the wallet and continued using the node. In October, I restored my old backup. After restoring the backup, I found that the listtransactions command stopped displaying some transactions made during the period from March to October.

Expected behavior

The listtransactions command displays all transactions in the restored wallet.

Actual behavior

The listtransactions command in the restored wallet does not display some transactions since the backup.

To reproduce

  1. Run bitcoin core in regtest mode
  2. Create a new address A and generate 101 blocks with sending a reward to the created address A
  3. Create a wallet backup
  4. Create new address B
  5. Send transaction to address B, write TXID
  6. Generate 1 block with sending a reward to address A
  7. View getaddressinfo B. Verify labels are not an empty list
  8. View listtransactions. Make sure there is a TXID transaction present
  9. Stop bitcoin core
  10. Restore backup
  11. Run bitcoin core
  12. View getaddressinfo B and listtransactions. Detect that the address does not have a label set and that listtransactions does not contain a TXID transaction.

System information

Bitcoin Core 0.20.1 on Debian GNU / Linux.
