Apologies for the dumb question. Had to move the node in the house, but after setting it up again lightning wallet has been on “syncing” for a few hours and Bitcoin is a few hours behind on blocks. Is this normal/anything to do to get my node up to the current block? Just seems stuck
Just let it resync. Depending on how long the node was down it can take hours. If your bitcoin node and/or electrum server is not synced it makes sense that the lightning node isn't either. Electrum server always takes more time to get back up again than the bitcoin node. I'm assuming you're running electrum server and LND. Nothing to do but wait patiently.
Incredible. Thanks so much for your response!! Feel better
No worries mate, just make sure you have the proper backups (onchain seeds & SCB backup file from the lightning node saved every time you open or close channels)
If the sync is not done in a few days I'd start figuring out how to view the logs on your node. A simple restart might be the solution too in some cases. Just not yet to not lose your current sync progress. Good luck!
If I recall correctly on myNode, if you go to the settings, you can check the logs for each service.
If you check the Bitcoin logs, it should say it's catching up/syncing.
Will check this - thank you!!
Hi - Just saw this and thought it may be worth posting here as my be relevant.
My tor node doesn't seem to be affected, but if you're using tor and it's still trying to sync, this could be related.
Interesting! It might be! I was def down for a while. We’re all good now, though
