    As usual I had Bitcoin-Qt (v0.9, Win 7 x64) running in the background and sent a transaction via RPC, about 10 minutes later an exception was thrown, ultimately leading to a corrupted wallet.dat file. At that very moment no action was performed and to my best knowledge no other program than bitcoin-qt.exe had access to the wallet.dat. The event logs don't show any incident besides this one during that time.

    It looks like the wallet.dat suddenly poof disappeared?

    wallet.dat: unable to flush: No such file or directory

    I saw this only once before, with a guy whose computer was was hacked. The hacker had copied (and for some reason removed, maybe to buy time while cracking the passphrase?) the wallet.

    I suggest checking your system very thoroughly, and making sure that you restore a backup (you do have a backup, do you?) on a secure system and send everything to a new wallet ASAP.

    I reconstructed this: 1. broadcast a new transaction, 2. remove wallet.dat, 3. wait until transaction confirms. The exceptions were similar, so I'm sure this was indeed due to a non available wallet.dat file.

    The odd parts after thinking more about it: I have multiple wallets in the datadir and rename them before use. After the incident the wallet.dat was indeed missing, but one with the previous filename was there (I wasn't really aware of this earlier), timestamp of last change: the time when the transaction was initially broadcasted. I tested this "renamed" wallet immediately which lead to the "wallet.dat corrupt, salvage failed" dialog.

    After another test a few minutes ago: the corrupted wallet file is now accepted.
