Hello everyone.
I've seen similar threads/issues posted, and I've really tried to solve this on my own.. But I don't understand how Python works and how to run all the proper commands for pywallet. Although most of the other threads that mentioned this were not for altcoins, I think the problem is the same as sometimes happened with the bitcoin-qt wallet.
I was mining CSC coins, and all was going well, until I woke up and one of my machines had apperently shutdown while I was sleeping. After rebooting it, and starting the CSC-qt wallet, it gave me the following error;
Fatal Exception error;
NSt8ios_base7failureE
Read Compact Size() : size too large
After using google and reading other threads, I tried to empty the directory of casinocoins in appdata/roaming profile, except for the wallet.dat, but it still gave me the error.
So I guess my wallet.dat is corrupted. I've tried to implement the same fixes as mentioned in the other threads but I've had no success in solving this.
I have made a new wallet now, but I still want to retrieve the coins (not a whale load or anything) from the previous wallet. I still have the wallet.dat, but I don't understand the least bit of python..
I was wondering if anyone could help me out with this, I can give a reward, but I'm not loaded or hoarding lots of coins so don't expect cauldrons..
