Moving from the web wallet to the cli wallet

[xeroc]

if you have participated in the testnets with the same wallet you need to create a new wallet (e.g. by renaming wallet.json)

[fav]

try without " "

Any one have an idea?

My wallet is open and it still not working:

I did

Code Select Expand


set_password somepassword
unlock somepassword
import_key "myaacountname" my-Owner-Permissions-private-key true
import_key "myaacountname" my-Active-Permissions-private-key true


In both cases the output was:

10 assert_exception: Assert Exception
rec && rec->name == account_name_or_id:
    {}
    th_a  wallet.cpp:530 get_account

list_my_accounts

Output:

list_my_accounts
[]

The account name is in
https://bitshares.org/wallet/#/explorer/accounts

Please advise

examples:

Code Select Expand

import_key "nathan" 5KQwrPbwdL6PhXujxW37FSSQZ1JiwsST4cqQzDeyXtP79zkvFD3
or

Code Select Expand

import_accounts <path to exported json> <password of wallet you exported from>

@fav: what's the error?

we got it figured.

you have to set a password first and unlock the wallet in order to import your private key.

thx to telegram group :)

import_key is the correct command ..

got the same errors in windows. won't let me import my priv key

[xeroc]

import_key is the correct command ..

[mostar]

when you run wallet_import .. the account name afterwards has to MATCH the account name registered with the private key .. not sure what you are doing wrong here :(

Its new cli_wallet installation. I didn't try to run "wallet_import" only  "import_key", What is the correct order on commands?

sure about your account name? try find your name in
https://bitshares.org/wallet/#/explorer/accounts

it may have been prefixed with bts-

Yes I'm sure.  Found it in https://bitshares.org/wallet/#/explorer/accounts
It don't have "bts-" prefixed

[xeroc]

Is it safe when active key is the same with the owner key?

yes it is safe

[xeroc]

I did

Code Select Expand


import_key myaacountname my-Owner-Permissions-private-key true
import_key myaacountname my-Active-Permissions-private-key true


In both cases the output was:

10 assert_exception: Assert Exception
rec && rec->name == account_name_or_id:
    {}
    th_a  wallet.cpp:530 get_account

list_my_accounts

Output:

list_my_accounts
[]

Look like some thing missing.

[xeroc]

you can do the same with the active key

import_key myaacountname active_wif_key true

[mostar]

Code Select Expand


import_key myaacountname myprivkey true


Output:

10 assert_exception: Assert Exception
rec && rec->name == account_name_or_id:
    {}
    th_a  wallet.cpp:530 get_account

you will need to import the OWNER key if you want to edit the account settings and
you will need to import the ACTIVE key if you want to spend funds

Which commands import OWNER and ACTIVE keys

I already used the "Owner Permissions" private key in this command:

Code Select Expand


import_key myaacountname myprivkey true


[xeroc]

you will need to import the OWNER key if you want to edit the account settings and
you will need to import the ACTIVE key if you want to spend funds

[cube]

Yes you can.

From the webwallet, go into your account->permission->owner permission->click on the account key-> show the private key and copy it down

Go to cli wallet->

import_key myaccountname myprivatekeystring true

Hi,

I Didn't find any reference regarding how to move my wallet from the web wallet to the cli wallet.

Can I use them in parallel with the same account?

Thanks
