You can also try using my Python 2 script for dumping the wallet (it's loosely based on pywallet, and might work better with some corrupted wallets)
import sys
import struct
from bsddb.db import *
from hashlib import sha256
# Dumps the private keys from a wallet.dat file.
# Inspired by pywallet.
B58 = "123456789ABCDEFGHJKLMNPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijkmnopqrstuvwxyz"
if not len(sys.argv) == 2:
print("Usage: %s " % sys.argv[2])
sys.exit(1)
def read_size(buffer, offset):
size = ord(buffer[offset])
offset += 1
if size == 0xfd:
size = struct.unpack_from(" offset += 2
if size == 0xfe:
size = struct.unpack_from(" offset += 4
if size == 0xff:
size = struct.unpack_from(" offset += 8
return offset, size
def read_string(buffer, offset):
offset, string_len = read_size(buffer, offset)
return offset + string_len, buffer[offset: offset + string_len]
def b58_encode(d):
out = ""
p = 0
x = 0
while ord(d[0]) == 0:
out += "1"
d = d[1:]
for i, v in enumerate(d[::-1]):
x += ord(v)*(256**i)
while x > 58**(p+1):
p += 1
while p >= 0:
a, x = divmod(x, 58**p)
out += B58[a]
p -= 1
return out
def b58check_encode(d):
checksum = sha256(sha256(d).digest()).digest()[:4]
return b58_encode(d + checksum)
db = DB()
db.open(sys.argv[1], "main", DB_BTREE, DB_RDONLY)
items = db.items()
for item in items:
k, v = item
koff, voff = 0, 0
koff, item_type = read_string(k, koff)
if item_type == "key":
koff, pubkey = read_string(k, koff)
voff, privkey = read_string(v, voff)
if len(privkey) == 279:
secret = privkey[9:9+32]
else:
secret = privkey[8:8+32]
if pubkey[0] != "\x04":
secret += "\x01"
print(b58check_encode("\x80" + secret))
