Version 24 has issues, how to upgrade to version 23? #7361

See issue https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/issues/7180

Ever since going to version 24 and sub versions after 24, I have had issues with having successful outbound payments. The log file also gets filled with gossip related errors. Is it possible to safely go back to version 23?

Is that while using the pay plugin or renepay? I don't think you can move back to 23.x since moving to 24.x would have likely upgraded your database and there is no support for downgrading.

I am using the pay command. What is renepay? Which is the proper command to use for payments?

I cannot pay using Ride The Lightning, pay or renepay.

renepay results in: { "code": 205, "message": "Destination is unknown in the network gossip." }

This is paying to strike, which I can pay just fine to from LND.

No, there is no way to downgrade your database to a previous version. If you want a previous version, spin up a new node.

If you want a previous version, spin up a new node.

Unfortunatly this is bad, but this is the only way that you have to run a previous version. However, this is a tech solution not a real one because you can not bring your channels with you.
