Thanks for all reports here...
And I'm glad you're here. I got the earlier beta client running, which got the GUI up automatically, and then got the upgrade. But now, with my wallet upgraded, the GUI does not engage and all I get in the command line is "Failed to read wallet file or you do not have any addresses so far." In an infinite loop.
Because of that infinite loop, the GUI doesn't even fire up.
I'm clicking the coin.exe, just as I did before the upgrade. Just to reiterate, the old version booted up fine but the new version gets stuck in an infinite line-spewing loop before the GUI can start. The line is, "Failed to read wallet file or you do not have any addresses so far."
Please, look into it. I'm running the client on Win7 Ultimate, 64-bit version.
