Well I had my main hard drive which I turned into an external, + an external which I thought was my backup. I didn't know copying the armory folder didn't copy the wallet too.

Then the main hard drive the armory went corrupt, but I was able to after a nice stressful time figure it out. I loaded armory on the external, but used the main externals settings and wallet information. I was able to make a paper copy, and import it onto my main computer hard drive.

I opened my backup on my external unfortunately my backup doesn't have my wallet info. I'll attempt to load my backup on my otherbackup that the armory is corrupted hopefully I can get the keys that way.

so u didnt backup ur armory wallet file (the ones in ~/.armory)?

When I try to open armory, I'm getting a popup that tells me to look at the armory.exe.

I open it and I'm getting this error

IOErrorL [Erno 13] Permission Denied
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "ArmoryQT.py", line 41, in
   from armoryengine import
   File "armoryengine.pyc", line 380 in
   File "armoryengine.pyc", line 372, in choplogfile

Any advice on how to fix this?

Or

How would I go about getting the coins off armory onto bitcoinqt?

Thanks for any help.

In case you cant read error messages: "IOError: Permission Denied"
code section:

Code:

def LOGDEBUG(msg, *a):
   try:
      logstr = msg if len(a)==0 else (msg%a)
      callerStr = getCallerLine() + ' - '
      logging.debug(callerStr + logstr)
   except TypeError:
      traceback.print_stack()
      raise

it cant write to the logfile and therefore dies! you screwd up permissions for the ~/.armory directory.

Do you have your private key? If so, just import that into the client or another wallet (ie Blockchain.info)
