Error: Restore Error

Open JollyGrin opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Greetings, I haven't checked in on Grin since a few months after it's launch. I've been trying to recover my old wallet713 wallet yet consistently run into Error: Restore Error.

Trouble shooting:

  • Install via the curl command
  • ./wallet713
  • Select restore wallet and paste seed
  • My old grinbox address is visible, so seed works, but no coins.
  • run check and returns the same Error: Restore Error

Hey @JollyGrin, I ran into the same issues and after finally compiling and running the associated grinbox tool (thought that could help), which then also threw segmentation faults I am moving on to another wallet.

I am now trying my luck using GrinPlusPlus wallet and syncing my own node. Looks ok so far, so I recommend grabbing your mnemonic and abandoning this wallet for now.

FYI, Restoring the wallet with GrinPlusPlus worked. Keep in mind you can only restore once the GrinPlusPlus node instance has fully synced with the network. The restore button is greyed out before that.
