1  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Moved wallet.dat to another comp., no adresses nor money :-\ (0.1 BTC bounty :) on: July 20, 2012, 11:20:36 AM


This is what I get when I run the .bat script, it seems to be working(?) but i cannot find this "wallet with JSON format" you are talking about  Embarrassed

Again, sorry for my newbie-ness with this, hopefully I'll learn some day.  Smiley
Copy the contents of the CMD window down to a text file. If you have ONLY received coins on a couple of address, find them and copy the data for the 'sec' column (that you censored fortunately).  Just make a blockchain.info wallet, and import those privatekeys to the wallet (choose Sipa wallet format or Base54, I've forgotten that). You'll see the balance there. Afterwards, just get a new wallet file by deleting the old wallet (BACKUP FIRST) and restarting the bitcoin client. Try sending test amounts of coins to it (faucet?) ,and if it works just send the coins back to it. You can also try other alternative clients like Electrum or Armory.

THANK YOU!  Grin

If blockchain.info shows that the receiving address has the coins, and you have the wallet to that address, your coins is safe.If everything fails, you can use pywallet at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=34028.0 to extract your privatekeys. Alternatively, you can use the 'bitcoind dumpprivkey' command on CMD at the Bitcoin Client directory (Assuming windows) to get the privatekeys. Import the keys to Blockchain.info's online wallet and send the coins to a new, working wallet.dat.

edit: removed an address from my previous post.

When trying to extract the privkey:


moved my wallet.dat file onto another computer which got all the block-updates fin the wallet app, but then all my coins and addresses were gone! ):

If you moved between XP and Windows Vista/Wiindows 7, know that there is a different directory used.

 - http://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Data_directory#Windows

Also, always close the client before backing up or restoring the wallet.dat.



Its W7 to W7, and both are in appdata/bitcoin  Smiley

Stop bitcoin/d
Remove any database/log* files from your bitcoin data directory
Run the rescan process again

Same as the other -rescan  Undecided

All also note that the block database (?) in the other never got to 100%, but were stuck around ~61%



And that also means that the wallet-balance were 0 as I moved the file.

"blockexplorer.com" is listing that I have some balance (:

Hello miners!  Grin

So after mining a while in slush's pool I decided to check my wallet for coins, but I noticed that not all blocks were received in the bitcoin-app.
After 15 minutes or so, I checked again, same percentage! And me, being new to this, moved my wallet.dat file onto another computer which got all the block-updates fin the wallet app, but then all my coins and addresses were gone! ):

I still have that mail from slush where I can check my address-balance at "blockexplorer.com" if its any help.

The 0.1 BTC bounty is currently half of my total balance!  Grin
