Hello all,

I'm in need of assistance!

I don't seem to find how to import old wallet.dat files into the new wallet.
Any clue how to do this?

I'm figuring so far that this could be done with the wallet's console with perhaps dumpwallet or importwallet commad or similar.
I've been able to make sure that the pathname specified is correct, otherwise I get the error "Cannot open wallet dump file (code -8)".
When the path is correct, the console seems to think for a split second and prompts nothing in return and nothing happens in the wallet app.

My new wallet has yet to be synced, so this might still be the problem?

The wallet.dat might be password protected. Might be. Would the console prompt any kind of error message in this case?

Anybody??


Refer to the instructions on the website www.bitcoinplus.org or contact mammix2 for assistance https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=227772

Thank you for referring me to mammix2, I sent him/her a message about this.

The instructions I've found on the website seem to assume I know my private key as key instead of the .dat file.
There is one page https://bitcoinplus.org/Backed_up_my_wallet_but_my_balance_is_showing_zero_for_some_reason_%3F ...
which refers to something similar, but I think it's for Windows.
