Title: PPC "Wrong password" on correct password. Post by: temor on April 29, 2013, 08:44:29 PM So, I've encrypted my PPC wallet. I used the client to send 5 coins to another wallet, and it worked like a charm.
When I tried again a few minutes later, with the same password, in the same client, it tells me the password is wrong. I strongly doubt that someone has changed the password on my wallet during this time ( all my other wallets, containing far more coins are untouched ). Is there a bug that could cause this or is this just me being retarded ? I did restart the wallet before it wacked out. Title: Re: PPC "Wrong password" on correct password.

But to confirm it might be wallet related, you can try command line first to isolate the problem
ppcoind walletpassphrase <passphrase> <unlock_duration> ppcoind walletlock Backup wallet using qt menu or ppcoind backupwallet. Use pywallet (http://github.com/ppcoin/pywallet) to dump the wallet file to see if any problem python pywallet.py --dumpwallet --password=<passphrase> Title: Re: PPC "Wrong password" on correct password.

I probably changed the password without remembering it. Thank god for backups! The old backup had the old password :) Title: Re: PPC "Wrong password" on correct password. Post by: temor on May 04, 2013, 04:04:26 AM Keep everything in KeePass... best program ever. http://keepass.info/ Doesn't really help much if you change your passwords in a fit of stupidity, does it? I'd rather have my passwords in the safest place possible, inside my head, than somewhere where any half assed script-kiddie can get their hands on them. |
