OK. Thanks. There were several places where I changed to "as"

Now, I guess I did not do the lib thing correctly. Here is the error:

C:\Users\admin\Desktop\RecoverySetupToRun>python pyethrecover.py -w wallet.json
-s password_spec.txt
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "pyethrecover.py", line 11, in <module>
from bitcoin import *
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'bitcoin'

That's still the same error. Have you installed the bitcoin package?
The github repo you linked to calls itself "python-bitcoinlib" https://github.com/petertodd/python-bitc...r/setup.py.

That's important, since there's A LOT of bitcoin packages (here's just a small snippet of them, found from "pip search bitcoin"):

Again, check the version of Python in your script. After installing the bitcoin module, if you try to install it one more time, in the output you have the path where the module is installed. You can see if it's under path/python3.x/dist-packages or path/python2.7/dist-packages

OK. Thanks. I seem to have had the wrong one. Got the right one now but ...

What error do you get if you try to install through pip, instead of manually running the setup file?

I find it here:

C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36-32

Maybe I should start over?

OK. Maybe we are getting there.

When I run it now, I am missing another lib - joblib

I knew I might need this as the program says so. Now I have to figure out where to find it.

C:\Users\admin\Desktop\RecoverySetupToRun>python pyethrecover.py -w wallet.json
-s password_spec.txt
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "pyethrecover.py", line 14, in <module>
from joblib import Parallel, delayed
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'joblib'

**nilamo** · Mar-27-2017, 06:25 PM

Output:pip search joblib
joblib (0.11)                - Lightweight pipelining: using Python functions
                               as pipeline jobs.

Looks like you can just install that through pip as well.

Thanks so much. It looks like the program may be running. Now to learn how to use it.

However, This is an error I am now getting:

C:\Users\admin\Desktop\RecoverySetupToRun>python pyethrecover.py -w wallet -s pa
ssword_spec.txt
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "pyethrecover.py", line 229, in <module>
__main__()
File "pyethrecover.py", line 216, in __main__
grammar = eval(file(options.pwsfile, 'r').read())
NameError: name 'file' is not defined
C:\Users\admin\Desktop\RecoverySetupToRun>

Can you make heads or tails of it?

**nilamo** · Mar-27-2017, 07:50 PM

Yeah. On line 216 of the file you're running, pyethrecover.py, you're referring to an undefined variable.

You're using it just like the open function (passing a file name, read/write flag, and reading from the result), so you could just replace "file" with "open" and it'd work. But it also means whoever wrote that doesn't believe in closing their file handles, and they also like eval, so I'd personally stop there and avoid using it lol

***zivoni*** · Mar-27-2017, 07:58 PM

Yes, you are again hit with python2 / python3 incompability. While in python2 it was possible to use either file() or open() to open file (with open() preferred), in python3 file() was removed, so only open() is used. You can again try to convert it for python3 with replacing file(... with open(..

But honestly, you are trying to run python2 program with python3, so its possible that even after you correct this, another error due to incompability will raise. Perhaps its worth to consider to try it run with python2.7...
