Title: system error: CDB() : can't open database file wallet.dat Post by: solomon on March 21, 2013, 05:57:39 PM Got this error while syncing bitcoin-qt
/// system error: CDB() : can't open database file wallet.dat /// It then closes the client. I restarted, same again. Thought it may have been something to do with older version of software so i copied wallet and updated to 0.8.1. dl'd the whole blockchain again and errors again @ 99.9% complete. Is it safe to just send the coins to a new wallet while these errors are occuring? What is causing this? A corrupted wallet.dat or something else?

Still my heart was in my mouth for a while! I assume that in a worst case scenario i would have been able to retrieve and export private keys to another wallet, even from a corrupt wallet.dat?
