Do you perhaps have an encrypted wallet file?
If so then my you need to run: bitcoind walletpassphrase YourWalletPassword 2000

When I get that it usually means that the key is already present in the wallet.
Try removeprivkey and then reimport.

Hi
I'm running bitcoin-qt version 0.6.2 on windows 7. I'm testing the JSON API. On testnet everything worked as expected, but now - on prodnet - I can't get importprivkey to work. It returns the error message: "Error adding key to wallet" for the private key: 5KBn7DJRBdzdkGEo78n5M8gULKes9FTiWYjr3Ssf3QdAZP7ACGe (Newly generated, not in bitcoin-qt)
The key should be valid. I use walletpassphrase first to unlock the wallet. What am I doing wrong?
