"As a result, compatibility with the old wallet.dat files has been broken. To transfer funds from v0.3.3.3 to v0.4.0, you must send them from the v0.3.3.3 client to a v0.4.0 address. Note that you can run both clients at once (from different folders)"
For this I need my wallet to sync of course.  Embarrassed

People tried doing that, and a few of them ended up doing the steps out of order and losing coins. 0.4.1 (probably less than a week out) (will have a GUI as well) will have support in 'siac' (and maybe the GUI) to load old wallets in a safe way.

After 0.4.1 is released, there should be no need to open a 0.3.3.x wallet ever again.

The old wallets were just simply too hard to use correctly, and they've eaten too many coins. We've built tools to make this unnecessary, you will be able to get your old coins by using 0.4.1 'siac'. There will be instructions to help you do this. Really sorry about all of that.

Same problem here, using 0.3.3-beta.2 b383.

Can you put your gateway.log on pastebin? It will help us make sure that we've solved the problem in 0.4.1

It can be found in app/resources/Sia/gateway/gateway.log
