"System Error: CWalletDB::ListAccountCreditDebit() : cannot create DB cursor" #2339

Tindalos commented at 9:11 PM on February 27, 2013: none

End user, Windows 7, BitCoin 0.8.0 Beta.

Installed BitCoin, added my wallet.dat file and had it accepted, and began to update the blockchain from the network. At about 75% completion, BitCoin threw the above fatal error and shut down. Subsequent restarts of BitCoin now immediately result in the same thing.

What do I do now, please?

By 0.8.0 Beta you are talking about the official non-RC relase? Can you post some parts of the debug.log, that could help.

Yes, the Windows .exe install package currently shown on the main page at bitcoin.org.

From debug.log:

There's more, a lot of ProcessBlocks and SetBestChains, and then a few paragraphs that look pretty similar to the above. Presumably, for each time it's encountered the error. If you'd like more from it, just let me know.

Well a walletDB error is related to your Bitcoin wallet file and you could try to first backup your wallet.dat and then start the client with -salvagewallet.

Thank you, Diapolo! That seems to have worked like a charm. Bitcoin loaded, did a bit of scanning, and now has resumed loading from the blockchain.

@Tindalos If everything is working now, you can close this issue ticket :).
