Title: PTS Private Key
Post by: JakeThePanda on February 23, 2014, 12:17:33 am

Can someone please help me?  I'm trying to use the dumpprivkey command and it says my private key is unknown, code -4 or something.

If your wallet is encrypted, you have to do
walletpassphrase "yourpassphrase" 600

then

dumpprivkey PtsAddressHere

Thanks.  Do I just use the wallet lock command to lock it again?

The 600 part is the number of seconds it will stay unlocked before re-locking automatically.  If you want you can use wallet lock to manually lock before then...
