Atm I have it encrypted and the wallet NOT running. If I were to come back to it in 20 days & use walletpassphrase to unlock would the POS still work??
yes, as long as you run your wallet unlocked at some point after accumulating 20 coin-days you will generate a PoS block, this will make your balance unavailable until that block is confirmed, 30 minutes i believe.
How can i unlock my wallet? (windows wallet)
go to help menu, debug window, go to console tab
walletpassphrase YOURPASWORD 9999999 true
I get a "Method Not Found (code - 32601)" message and the wallet does not unlock
What am i doing wrong?
ok, managed to do it. The error was missing quotation marks in password
for anyone might interested on how to unlock the wallet,
follow the instructions above and put:
walletpassphrase "yourpasswordhere" 999999999 true
(put your password inside quotation marks)
Thanks
i did not need the quotes, are you sure you hadn't just mistyped the command?
the internet says that error is due to mistake in command or extra spaces
don't know what to say...
i tried 3-4 times with the above command and did't work. Then i tried the same command with the quotes around password and worked fine (i found that in the MINTCOIN instructions on how to unlock the wallet)
EDIT: by mistake i added too many 9's in the above command. I changed that to just 7 digits, 9999999
Anyway, anyone interested can try both ways.
Thanks again guys!
