I ordered a caravan to depart 3 days ago and it is still sitting in my region. It only needs to travel one region, ~6 hours for 40 odd troops.
Mission Status Destination Current Location
sell (limit 1 gold) outward journey, carrying 100 bushels food Echiur Echiurfield
I too sent out a caravan a few days ago and it hasn't moved yet.
Also, you're really selling food for 1 gold? Either your region has a ridiculous gold income, or someone is taking advantage of you ;)
aside from what it says in the page.. did you get any sort of caravan reports?
is it a dwi only thing? a few days ago, i sent caravan out to sell food in bt.. worked ok..

Selling for 1 gold can be useful if you're not sure what the buy order is set to and want to make sure it sells to any open order -- if the buy order is higher than your limit, it will sell at the price of the buy order (though I think if there are multiple buy orders for different prices, it will choose the lowest one that is equal to or higher than the limit).
But yeah, also having problems with my caravans on Dwi. Specifically, I set it to automatically send caravans out if I have more than a set amount of food, and it is not doing that. Will try some other stuff.
You get the initial message saying a caravan will be dispatched but then nothing happens. And yes I expect the price to be higher than 1 gold if the caravan ever reaches its destination, I just hit that because it's a simple way to make sure it sells without double checking prices.
Theres a bug report on that here:

Please add any additional information.
