I replaced whole .Bitcoin directory. It still gives me "Error: wallet.dat corrupt, salvage failed" after --daemon and then -rescan flag.
However according to logs there are new kind of problem.

Is this the original wallet file or the backup? It looks like the wallet.dat was corrupted and the private keys are damaged. Odd that it would happen with your live wallet.dat as well as with your backup.

This is backup when I tried to use "-zapwallettxes=2" flag.

Do you have any other backups or any idea why the backup could be corrupted as well as the normal wallet.dat?

As I said above:"I am using Ubuntu 14.04. Few days ago there was entire server crash or at least mysql crash.". This may be a reason.
I have older backups. What if I replace whole ".Bitcoin" directory?

Well the server crashed, yes. Usually a file gets corrupted if data is accessed during the crash. I would not expect that happening with your live wallet.dat as well as your backup even if they are both on the same system. Unless you run automated backups and it crashed at the exact time the wallet.dat was due. It might help if you replace the whole dir, not sure. Maybe its not actually the wallet.dat files but something else. Replacing the entire dir might give some clues.

My wallet was corrupted. Now when I am running the wallet (using "--daemon" flag) it says:"Warning: error reading wallet.dat! All keys read correctly, but transaction data or address book entries might be missing or incorrect."
I have already tried to put "-rescan" flag - gives me the same result.
I am using Ubuntu 14.04. Few days ago there was entire server crash or at least mysql crash. Anyway I have one week backup. What if I replace current "wallet.dat" by backuped "wallet.dat". Will this fix the wallet?

The backup might fix it or it might have the same issue.

Instead of -rescan try -zapwallettxes if the backup does not work.

If that does not work either, try -zapwallettxes=2 this will drop all meta data about transactions (labels, etc.) though.

Backup of wallet.dat does not help. I am even using your advices (-zapwallettxes, -zapwallettxes=2). I get new error:"Warning: wallet.dat corrupt, data salvaged! Original wallet.dat saved as wallet.{timestamp}.bak in /root/.Bitcoin; if your balance or transactions are incorrect you should restore from a backup.
Error: Error loading wallet.dat: Wallet corrupted".
Any other suggestions? What if I replace whole ".Bitcoin" folder by one week backup?
By the way there are these lines in "debug.log" of wallet:

Find and Check your debug.log file (Help menu -> Debug window, then click the Open button), and search for the text "Error reading wallet database" which should have a more specific error message following it, Bitcoin Core is already smart enough to do an automatic re scan if it thinks the corruption is inside a transaction record.

You can always try it. BUT:
1. Make sure you have extra backups of both.
2. Don't actually REPLACE the old wallet.dat, just rename it to something else and use a COPY of the backup. This way you will have the wallet.dat that is given you a problem now and a number of backups.

thanks for advice.
