i still have 2 (G)iota on my passphrase but it seems the lightwallet did not recoignize my passphrase , i am sure i have my passphrase ok , but not work

or do i also need the iri that was used when making my passphrase??

i use v2.3.1

can someone please confirm or help , if original IRI is the case i have to search in a lot of hard drives

i remember i used a full node wallet when creating the passphrase

Not sure if that helps but i had the same problem and had to downgrade to 2.3.0 for my seed to be recognized.

Read the releasenotes:


Mainnet Release: v2.3.1

This is an official v2.3.1 version of the new GUI Wallet. This includes some important changes such as:

   
Seed Security Preferences: By default, you cannot login with a seed with less than 60 characters. You can manually change this setting to accept more insecure seeds in the Preferences section.



Thanks for pointing this out but i did read the release notes before switching, and my seed is definitely longer than 60 characters. Fwiw i even tried to manually change the setting you're referring to just in case, but (unsurprisingly) it didn't work and i just gave up after a few tries. That's kind of weird but it doesn't bother me that much, I'll just stick to 2.3.0 for now.
