Bitcoin-qt error

[RoadStress]

I moved my bitcoin to another hdd and i run the client with the "-datadir=" option. I ran the client and let it finish downloading the blockchain then i copied my wallet.dat file to that datadir folder. Client works fine (i see balances in the client) until i try to send some money and bam error:



Any help?

does it crash with the original datadir?

does it crash with the original datadir?

Yes. What can i do?

I moved the wallet.dat to the default location and i deleted the "blocks" and "chainbase" folders (which were copied from my custom location) and i got this error:



I restarted bitcoin-qt and i see that it's synchronizing with network. Will update when it's finished.

So nobody? Do i have to put a bounty to get an answer?

It seems that only saving wallet.dat file didn't work...strange.

Maybe you need to have a look at your dat file to see if it have write permissions on? Sometimes when you copied files these things changed and can cause this kind of errors. Right click your .dat file and check properties - security.

You can also compare these permissions on the .dat file on the hdd where it works with the .dat file on the hdd were it not works.

Maybe it can solve the problem.

They are the same.

Ok let me get this straight. When moving to a new folder/hdd i just have to copy the wallet.dat file right? If not then what any other file do i need?

What happens if my wallet.dat file is corrupted and i have all or some private keys for addresses from wallet.dat file? Let's say i have 5 wallets, and i have privkeys for 2-3. If i have 2 bitcoins and i spend 1 from one of the addresses which i have the privkeys then bitcoin-qt is moving the 1 bitcoin left to a newly generated address? If yes and i import the privkey of the original address then i will have the remaining 1 bitcoin or do i have to own the privkey of the newly generated address?
