Dear all,

I get an error message starting the swing wallet.

Error:

A general unexpected critical error has occurred:
error: couldn't connect to server: EOF reached (code 1)
(make sure server is running and ou are connecting to the correct RPC port)
See the console/logfile output for more detailed error information!

debug.log:

-> Can sombody support me in this error message how to fix it?
-> How to start the wallet with the addition of "-reindex" ?

I was able to start the wallet, but now suddenly this error message appear starting the swing wallet.
I did download the latest wallet (ZENCashDesktopGUIWallet_0.80.5.zip),
but still I get this error message.

The following step-by-step guide for Windows users (created by a third party) is very handy:
https://miningwithnvidia.com/2018/02/09/zencash-wallet-eof-reached-code-1/

"The ZEN private keys are located in the wallet.dat file in directory:

Windows: %APPDATA%/Zen/
Mac OS: ~/Library/Application Support/Zen/

To make sure your ZEN is not lost, the most important thing is to keep a backup copy of your wallet.dat file - it must never be lost! It may be copied manually when the GUI wallet/zend are not running. The wallet.dat needs to be backed up regularly (not just once - say after every 30-40 outgoing transactions) and it MUST also be backed up after creating a new Z address. "
