I use tdewalletmanager as a convenience to store

and everything was working fine (through several login/logout
iterations), but the second time I logged in today, suddenly
tdewalletmanager didn't start, and kmail prompted me for my mail service
passwords.
I shut down kmail, then tried to start tdewalletmanager, but it would
not start from the menu or the command line. I was able to start it by
using 'open with...' in konqueror on kdewallet.kwl, but though the file
is 1.3K, kwallet manager shows no file tree! It appears that
tdewalletmanager can no longer read my wallet files.
I noticed that the privileges for that file were set to -rw-rw-rw- and
set them to -rw------ in case that was an issue, but that didn't help,
though now I can start tdewalletmanager from the command line.
What should I do to find out what's gone wrong?

I had such an issue some years ago. In my case kdewallet4/5 has "migrated"
my kwallet in a new format, unreadable for tdewallet. In my case I was able
to restore the file from backup. I was also able to open the file with
kdewallet5.

I was able to create a replacement kdewallet.kwl file by removing the broken
one, logging out and back in, then using File -> New Wallet...
Thanks for your help.
