Ok I see! I think the file is badly corrupted You should use the recovery: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=34028.msg2794856#msg2794856python pywallet.py --recover --recov_device c:\path\to\your\wallet.dat --recov_size 30Gio --recov_outputdir c:\recoveredwalelt The rest should be obvious Tell me if anything goes bad If this doesn't recover the keys you wanted then I really think they're gone |

I thought it would try to fix a wallet, already recovered using some file recovering sofware as i did, instead. Ok, tomorrow i'll try to use the tool over my old hard drive where i detected i had my old wallet deleted, i haven't used it ever since. Ill let know how it works  thank you! |

Im trying it now, but i have two basic questions  I download the latest pywallet version, placed it in the same folder i had my previous one after deleting the first. In the previous version (1.1 i think), when doing from command line a pywallet.py --version it would return the version, but in this case, when i simply do from the windows command line a pywallet.py --version, it returns this: C:\Users\unknown user\Desktop\pywallet>pywallet.py --version File "C:\Users\unknown user\Desktop\pywallet\pywallet.py", line 4 <!DOCTYPE html> ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax And second question: in the command option s "c:\path\to\your\wallet.dat", if i am supposed to search within a deleted hard drive for wallets/keys, how can i point to a wallet? Should i point to the location where my wallet was before i erased the files? thank you! |

Quick answers, I'll try to find the time to answer more precisely soon
1) the file you downloaded is not pywallet. Maybe a 404 HTML page. Open it with a text editor to be sure
2) --recov-device is either a drive or a file, depending on what you want or need

Thank you, i had downloaded an html page with the name pywallet.py, i hadn't looked into the code. After using it this is the result in the command window: The new wallet c:\wallets/recovered_wallet_1383137342.dat contains the 229 recovered keys And the next files in the folder i used as output: http://i41.tinypic.com/33wxfdv.jpgI renamed "recovered_wallet_1383137342.dat" to wallet.dat and used it as my wallet on my computer, and after opening bitcoin -qt it wouldn't return any error message but after loading the full block it is empty and it doesn't have any cents or even addresses in the addresses tab, only a long list of labels and addresses under the "receive" tab, with the name recovered:labelname and an address name in the next column. Can i consider my cents lost ? |

Hello ! Is there a way to get the output wallet.dat from --recover option without a passphrase ? Ok, so basically what happened : The power went out while the client was running, and when I try to start it again it says wallet corrupted. I successfully recovered a wallet, then i copied it as wallet.dat and moved to the coin directory. I wiped the blockchain and download it again. While the blockchain was downloading the transaction appeared, even if there is no trace of addresses in the "'Receive" tab. I found my balance again. It's allright but the passphrase I set at the begining of the operation (Enter the passphrase for the wallet that will contain all the recovered keys) doesn't seem to work. What I did is to run the --recover option. I got a recovered_wallet.dat, the client shows the correct balance with the wallet but it is locked with some passphrase that is different from the one I set during the recovery process. I installed a new and clean VM, got only the corrupted wallet.dat file and pywallet on it, tried to recover again and set a single space as the passphrase, and I still can't unlock that wallet! "space" won't be the passphrase. But I got everything in the corrupt wallet. I guess it's been badly written somewhere because of the shutdown and won't load properly. It's a chance that the original wallet.dat was not encrypted. Maybe someday I'll retrieve these. If anyone has any clue, any help is much appreciated. Thanks By the way, how does WalletWizard sounds ? Can be WalletWiz or something. |

Can i consider my cents lost ?
Did you try "bitcoin-qt -rescan"? If so and if it doesn't help, yes I think they may be lost You can still send me your wallet so that I can see what I can find inside it It say: pywallet needs 'bsddb' package to run, please install it But I have already installed it: Hmm... OSX? Is there a way to get the output wallet.dat from --recover option without a passphrase ?
Yes, put this as the passphrase: I don't want to put a password on the recovered wallet and I know what can be the consequences. (line 4883 in https://github.com/jackjack-jj/pywallet/blob/master/pywallet.py) Tell me if it helps you recovering the coins Hi All, Wondering if anyone can help me with this error that comes up when trying to dumpmy wallet with balance... C:\Users\infinitevs>pywallet.py --dumpwallet --dumpwithbalance

Thanks in advance Did you have access to internet when you tested that? Thank you very much for this tool! Thanks for your feedback By the way, how does WalletWizard sounds ? Can be WalletWiz or something.
Sounds good, sounds prety good IMO! I'll consider that! Thanks a lot! |

Hi jackjack, I have found some wired payment from my wallet when i sent my regular transaction with Bitcoin-Qt version on 0.8.5. look like been stolen some points.(that is not fee, i pay the fee 0.001 each time). https://blockchain.info/address/121DhL8p3ta5vmDp7WDcjiHfmoQ73bSpWF. example the last one: the "1PMjtDqHcQvw6tehfgNGnb7aFWsrC4TBrU " took 0.03338348 BTC top than my payment. and another one: took "1P1GBELRwdhsgovvrzUDx7HBCVH8Sj4yjX" 0.0499 BTC as well. Any advice, very appreciate. also other folks, be carefully.... Tahnks. |

yeah, I thought it could be the change too at early time.
But after 3 days, and my computer wallet/Bitcoin -Qt is synchronized. I also can see the conformations of those transactions, have already deep to 500 (not enough yet?). Somehow the missed potions still do not show up to the balance.

Hey ! That worked like a charm. I just recovered several hundreds of millions of Infinitecoin, and over 1 million of Zetacoins. That IFC wallet was 750Mb in size, recovered about 125k keys.. That was a long process, but what a relief ! Thanks a lot for your work ! If you want some IFC or ZET please post an addy. ;-) By the way, how does WalletWizard sounds ? Can be WalletWiz or something.
Sounds good, sounds prety good IMO! I'll consider that! Thanks a lot! I will be honored if you name it that way. :-) Franchement, merci beaucoup !! Quel soulagement ! :-D |

Ok, so I need to install Python 2.7 with twisted package, then use python.py. The problem is that any time I try to open it this appears: http://imgur.com/HujMmKJAny help? (oh obviously I'm an idiot and I deleted the wallet along with all the OS, then recovered with Recuva but the bitcoin client doesn't like it) |

Nice! I got pywallet running, and it helped me to scrub out an old 0/unconfirmed transaction that I hadn't paid enough transaction fee to clear. Had to make a small change, to get it to run on Gentoo Linux. Unfortunately, Gentoo packaged the bsddb library under the name "bsddb3" which is incorrect, and breaks pywallet. This works around that breakage, by trying to import from bsddb3 if bsddb fails. Exactly the same library, but different name. Here's the pull request for this: https://github.com/jackjack-jj/pywallet/pull/6Josh |
