1) got to console ...

So if I export a wallet in JSON from Windows, shouldn't I be able to import it in Ubuntu?

Actually I tried to import wallets exported with 0.4.7 to 0.4.7 client and I get this even on Windows...

Can someone tell us what is the most STABLE environment? I am very nervous about keeping my wallet up to date.

I'm getting this:

Code: [Select]
Finished scanning for new transactions.
7 bad_cast_exception: Bad Cast
Invalid cast from type 'string_type' to Object
    {"type":"string_type"}
    th_a  variant.cpp:501 get_object
