Hi there,
I am trying to export wallet files for importing into openledger.
I looking to import a .dat protoshares wallet/angelshares wallet into 0.9.3c and then export the .json file as instructed below:
http://docs.bitshares.org/bitshares/migration/howto-exporting-wallet.html
I am using Ubuntu (used it before and worked fine). I am downloading the 0.9.3c from https://github.com/bitshares/bitshares-0.x/releases
for some reason when selecting 'file' and then 'import' the browser is unable to 'see' the .dat files.
What might I be doing wrong. Any help here would be super awesome. Thanks!
The wallet dat files are handled differently. Sorry for not atating it clearly.
You need to do this:
- create an account in bts0.9.3c (no need to "register" it)
- go into the account details ...
- import key ...
- pick your wallet.dat file an passphrase
you should now see your funds and can export your wallet for bts2
Thanks for getting back to me.
created an account in 0.9.3c, imported an AGS wallet.dat file and entered the password.
It said the keys were successfully imported.
I then exported a .json wallet.
But when trying to import the wallet to openledger it gave me the following error "Please use a BTS 1.0 wallet_export_keys file instead"
I downloaded 0.9.3c from here https://github.com/bitshares/bitshares-0.x/releases/download/bts%2F0.9.3c/bitsharesGUI-0.9.3c-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
I'm pretty sure thats the latest 0.9 version, so not sure whats going on.
Thanks for your help Xeroc
Have you exported the wallet with the console?
If you used the export function in the menu, please try to use the console command instead.
Fantastic! that worked
Thanks a lot for all your help. I would have been completely lost.
EDIT: Tried to claim more than one balance and got the following error: "Failed to broadcast the transaction:
Genesis vesting balances may not be claimed more than once per day."
I dont mind this.
I just want to make sure that I am not accidentally claiming any of the 2 year vesting balances. I really dont want to do this as I am in it for the painful long hall.
Also when importing into 2.0 it says 'found 10 keys'
but when 'loading balance claims' it kept loading for over 10minutes.
I then thought there must be something wrong so pressed import.
It then imported only 2 keys.
Is there any issue here? If I dont wait it out do I loose funds that I could have claimed?
Sorry for all the questions.
