Title: Still cannot import wallet
Post by: luckybit on October 17, 2015, 11:04:36 pm

Cannot import,  after some failed attempts now it shows when importing the keys empty balances, and says the wallet has already been imported, only this is not true or somehow the balances are missing.

In windows
Cli wallet also gives an underlying transport error but the witness node appears to set up just fine. In any case something is going wrong in the cli wallet and it looks like it doesn't connect.

Could it be some sort of firewall setting?

You may need to claim balances:

Code: [Select]

import_balance <account name> <private key> true

Your witness_node.exe is probably not running or that the port parameter is wrong.  Try this:

1) witness_node.exe  --rpc-endpoint 127.0.0.1:8090 -d bts2
2) Make sure (1) is running ALL the time,
cli_wallet.exe -w btswallet -s ws://127.0.0.1:8090

Thanks, now the Cli wallet seems to work. It appears you have to run it as administrator, and the commands aren't documented well on the website.

Now I'm back on my mission to import my wallet.
