Hey people. I'm getting a weird error and not sure how to fix it - all my pennies seem to be gone from my wallet after loading the blockchain. When I start the new version of the wallet it gives me an error saying "Warning: error reading wallet.dat! All keys read correctly, but transaction data or address book entries might be missing or incorrect". I have a couple hundred dollars worth of pennies in there so would hate to lose them, tried deleting everything but wallet.dat in the roaming directory, etc but nothing fixes it. Anyone know what to do?

You'll most likely need to dump the private key(s) for the address(es) and import into a brand new wallet. As before delete everything aside from wallet.dat and then start the client again. Dump the private keys for any addresses you've received funds for by going to Command Line Banking and typing:

Code:

dumpprivkey address

(Replacing address with the pennies address)

Copy and paste the private key(s) and then close the client.
Rename wallet.dat to something else just in case you need to come back to it later.
Restart pennies and it'll generate a new wallet.

Once the wallet has started up go to Command Line Banking and type:

Code:

importprivkey PrivateKeyHere LabelHere

(Replacing PrivateKeyHere with the private key from earlier and LabelHere with a name to identify it. Perhaps Imported for example)

Once you've done this it can take a very long time to import the transactions so just leave it alone and let it do it's thing. Repeat for any other keys until you've rebuilt your wallet.

Wait... so let me get this straight... we can only use the 0.9.6 client until new year, but stake will continue generating until 8th of Jan? Huh

I'm confused here

Just update to 0.10.0.0 already. what's the deal with all the reluctance to update? It'll stake at exactly the same levels until January 8th.

I can't get past the first step, I get the error. The private key for this address is not known (code -4). That sounds bad to me, any more help please?

I did try this on a new computer- transferred the wallet file over. I wanted to avoid the first computer as it has issues and was the one that crashed in the first place- plus it is very slow. Could that be the problem? I'm re-syncing the original computer now to see if its any different.
