Title: error loading block database.
Post by: cryptkeeper on April 29, 2014, 02:20:25 pm
I tried to open my wallet this morning and I get a message that says error loading block database. I can't get my wallet open for some reason. I tried to reinstall the pts client and get the same message. What should I do. I made two dat file back ups  so I still have my pts. I just can't get the wallet to open on my computer.

Windows said that the program stopped working.

Which version of wallet software your using?
If you using the latest version from: https://github.com/BitShares/BitShares-PTS/releases/

Try do delete all files, except wallet.dat from: C:\Users\<User Name>\AppData\Roaming
and run the client again.
Before everything I suggest to make a backup copy of wallet.dat

I had the same issue last night and I have deleted everything (except the wallet.dat of course) in order to work...

Great I got it to sync. I just hope my pts is still there. When I made my back up I clicked the backup wallet tab and followed the instructions from there. Is that the proper way of backing up your dat file?
