I started up Bitcoin-qt last night to refresh the blocks and transfer some coins and while it was running I saw a message in the bottom left corner.

EXCEPTION: 11DbException
Db::put: Not enough space
F:\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe in ProcessMesage()

Its stalled on Block 252450

Now I have looked through here a little in the last 12 hours to find some ideas.

I attempted to detach database and then copied the whole thing to another drive and still no change.
I was able to transfer all but 1 coin of my balance (since it cant see past above block to see new coin) to another wallet address and changed the address to my minders till I get this resolved.  I did make another backup and have older backup but that is from several months ago.

I can assume that with the backups that my wallet address is safe, but what are the next steps that I need to take to resolve this.  I do not want to uninstall bitcoin-qt until I am sure that I wont lose anything or as a last resort step.

Could I just download a newer bitcoin-qt, install it on different drive and import one of the backups?  Would that get everything back on track other then the re-sync of the blocks?


Thanks in advance.

Why are you using 0.6.2?  Everyone else is using 0.8.3.  ???

Back up your wallet.dat, wipe the old 0.6.2 install (including the stuff in your user folder), install 0.8.3.  Copy the wallet.dat in, and it'll sync up for you.

Never kept up with the new versions. Only used it once and while.  Guess didn't pay attention till i needed too.

I installed the new version on different drive.  It syned right up and had wallet data.  So everything is good.

Thanks.
