Ok, I have a weird bug. I had a small amount of sync in my wallet from some time ago, and had frankly forgotten about it. Not heavily invested in the coin. In the early days, I saw troubles that were eventually resolved, and I bailed for the most part.

I'm not unhappy with that decision. I profited pretty well on the POW phase, and I used those profits to my advantage. I'm still pretty agnostic on the future of this coin, but it appears y'all are doing a good job. Much better than I expected, to be honest.

In light of that, I opened up my sync wallet and found it not empty. I went ahead and compiled the latest wallet release, copied wallet.dat over, and I continually get an error about the database being corrupt, with the instruction to delete everything but wallet.dat and try again. I did that. Same result. I copied in a new .conf file based off of the ones posted in the thread. Same error. I removed the old wallet.dat file and it starts syncing without issue.

So, at the command line I've run both -repairwallet and -salvagewallet. No effect, same error. This is under ubuntu 14.04 LTS desktop. Without a config file I get no connections, but this error doesn't even get that far. It's upon opening the wallet.

I do have a back up of the old wallet and older client on my windows laptop, which I'm about to boot up and sync. But I'd like a way to solve this.

Any clues, advice, abuse?
