Yes, that's the one - same as in b11. This does not happen ONLY with a new wallet created by b12.
IMO, there should be a check for the wallet.dat version on opening the QT , then correctly upgrading it if needed, only then the software should be given permission to start using it. This should not depend in any way on the software version upgrade process, since the wallet.dat file is meant to be independent of the software installation/package files.

The update from 1.5 to 2.0 (b12) wallet still does not work for me under my test conditions - 1.5 wallet crashes in b12 after 1 run & exit and then trying to run b12 a second time. Also noticed transactions NOT going out from a 2.0 (in b12) to a 1.5 (in 1.5) wallet as well as between 2.0 wallets (both in b12, one of them being a 1.5 wallet - the one that crashes after exiting b12 and trying to start it again). The latter do show up at both the sender and the recipient wallets, but stay unconfirmed. 2.0 (in b12) to 1.5 (in 1.5) transfers do NOT show up in the recipient 1.5 wallet at all (this is for a transfer from a NEW 2.0 wallet in b12 to a 1.5 wallet in a working 1.5 version of the software). In the previous b11, transactions worked in all directions (1.5 <-> 2.0, 2.0 <-> 2.0)
I'd like to post all conditions & results now (incl. some persistent error messages), but do have a question before that - is this still the test doc to use?:

This version has had no issues upgrading 1.5 wallet.dat’s to 2.0, and also includes new graphics.
IMPORTANT: Before installing the new beta, please delete the contents of your beta test Data Dir (C:\Users\{your name}\AppData\Roaming\SolarCoin\). This includes peers.dat, blk0001.dat, txleveldb, (optionally, database and debug.log), and if you are running with a beta wallet.dat, remove it as well, provided there are no coins in it. If you are running beta with a “live” wallet.dat from 1.5, please replace it with a backup version from your 1.5 wallet to ensure it upgrades properly. Your coins will be restored when the wallet is fully synced.
We’re getting really close!
PS: PoST is currently set to kick in after height 800000. This will give the exchanges time to update their software. After 800000, there will be a delay of up to 6 hours before PoST blocks begin generating. The software is designed to begin staking as soon as you login to the wallet. So there's nothing you need to do to stake besides the initial encryption of the wallet. Just login and begin earning interest. If you choose not to stake, there is an option to turn it off: Settings->Disable Staking. Staking is the equivalent of mining in PoW. If there were no miners, the network would grind to a halt, so staking is critical for the health of the network.

New problems with v2.0 above.
Removed old system, clean install of new version. Copied wallet.dat to users/roaming/......
Start - shows no connections.
debug.log says :
Loading addresses...
ERROR: CAddrman::Read() : open failed
Invalid or missing peers.dat; recreating

What did you remove from the data dir? Should be peers.dat, txleveldb and blk0001.dat at the minimum. peers.dat because you may have been DoS'd...
-Steve
I removed everything from the users/me/appdata/roaming/solarcoin directory except the wallet.dat from the 'old' 1.5 version.
peers.dat is created when V2.0 starts on a fresh directory, and it is corrupted so it goes off to find addresses via UPnP and then DNS discovery. These addresses seem valid and functional, but V2 cannot make contact. It finds 5 addresses :
UPnP Port Mapping successful.

connection timeout
trying connection 65.254.248.148:18188 lastseen=121.7hrs
Added 1 addresses from ::: 0 tried, 3 new
5 addresses found from DNS seeds
Interestingly I can ping the rejected addresses successfully, but the v2.0 cannot seem to make contact.
It also refuses to start again if interrupted and you can put what switches you like in the calling line. You have to delete everything, and then restart with a fresh copy of wallet.dat to make it even start again properly. But that is a futile exercise as it doesn't want to contact anything.
Thank goodness there is plenty of time to debug this before 80K....
Back to the original software and a totally 'old' copy of the data dir (as you put it) and all is well. So no, I am not being DoSed, nor are the v2.0 addresses - it is probably just the distro that is stuffed.
Depressing really.

Apparently, the wallet.dat file corruption by the latest beta happens on 2 stages (or may be it depends on the number of times you try to run the program). If when attempting to start the beta your wallet is still showing the message "...All keys were read correctly, but transaction data or address book entries might be missing or incorrect" - then you can still restore your wallet:
1. Stop right away any additional attempts to run the beta.
2. Copy the wallet.dat file from ...\AppData\Roaming\SolarCoin of the beta to a machine with a running current good version of the SolarCoin wallet software.
3. Exit from the current version (if running), rename it's current wallet.dat file in ...\AppData\Roaming\SolarCoin to something like wallet-back.dat, then place the corrupt wallet.dat from the beta in the wallet folder (...\AppData\Roaming\SolarCoin).
4. Start the current good version. The same error message will appear (something like "...All keys were read correctly, but transaction data or address book entries might be missing or incorrect") but the program will NOT stop running. It will appear as not responding for some time while scanning the blockchain for the transactions related to your corrupt wallet address(es). Eventually the wallet will be restored, with all transactions and the correct balance. You can then exit the program, rename the fixed wallet.dat to something like walletBETA.dat, rename back the wallet-back.dat to wallet.dat, and you are all set to run your original wallet. The walletBETA.dat is the fixed wallet from the beta testing, can be used as a backup to restore from (copy it) to the wallet.dat file for next tests.

My Version 2.0 is syncing blocks fine, there were two error messages when I first turned it on but the wallet started syncing immediately. I chose to run this beta test with a completely clean wallet.dat file and directory.
There are 8 active connections on my version 2.0 network and currently about 345370 blocks remaining to catch-up on the sync for me.

Speaking of this, I decided to run a test wallet on a new account. Copied over my wallet.dat. It's not finding peers, but otherwise it seems to be functioning well.

Hello SolarCoin community!
Here are some details on the latest beta11 that might shed some light on the problems here. The latest beta does an upgrade on 1.5 wallet.dat's to 2.0. There are some structural changes to the wallet to allow transaction time stamps that are needed for PoST. This is a different time stamp than the one you see in the wallet's History tab.
The upgrade is not backwards compatible with 1.5. if you are beta testing, please use a new wallet (or a copy) for testing.
The final version will upgrade your 1.5 wallet to 2.0. So if you choose to use your old 1.5 wallet.dat in 2.0, that's fine, you will retain all of your transaction history. Just be sure to have a wallet backup handy.

Here are some details on the latest beta11 that might shed some light on the problems here. The latest beta does an upgrade on 1.5 wallet.dat's to 2.0. There are some structural changes to the wallet to allow transaction time stamps that are needed for PoST. This is a different time stamp than the one you see in the wallet's History tab.
The upgrade is not backwards compatible with 1.5. if you are beta testing, please use a new wallet (or a copy) for testing.
The final version will upgrade your 1.5 wallet to 2.0. So if you choose to use your old 1.5 wallet.dat in 2.0, that's fine, you will retain all of your transaction history. Just be sure to have a wallet backup handy.

Speaking of this, I decided to run a test wallet on a new account. Copied over my wallet.dat. It's not finding peers, but otherwise it seems to be functioning well.
