So I believe the issue is that @ryanteck created a program that required a config file either from GitHub or our server to configure the ECC correctly / get the correct key from it. The download of this file was getting blocked by the China firewall and consequently meant it was uploading the wrong key to our server.
From @shawaj on Slack:
I'll dig out the command to fix it. It's basically just to go onto the miner container on balena, grab the public key of the ECC and update it in our onboarding server and push it to helium
Hello, I have the same "Onboarding error" miner reports no_onboarding-key or Onboarding error on nebra outdoor miner and I can't start pairing. How do I solve the problem so that I can run miner? Thanks
@Tetytety You need to reach out to support.
I did it. but no response yet, so I'm trying to find a solution everywhere on the internet. So far unsuccessfully. I hope to get a response from support soon. thank you for answer 😊
Long story short, we need to re-register the device with Helium. Hence this is unfortunately not you can fix on your end.
I understand, so I can only wait.You have some idea when a solution could be found? Thanks 😊
I was in the process of building a rak miner and was to the point of setting up hip19 and the power went out. Now I can't reconnect to it to finish the onboarding key set up. I tried, out of curiosity, to connect to helium obviously it told me no key. I was using putty, is Balenca easier or better? Also, I can't find this new onboarding info, that fixed some issue with hip19. Also, the link I was using from rak no longer works with the instructions. And last time I looked at helium the link wasn't working either. Is there somewhere else I can get the doc?
@TheDivineAges you are trying to create your own DIY hotspot?
Yes. I’m actually trying to develop one. But the one in question is basically rak set. In makes an earlier rak model. I did it some time back and haven’t been able to get it fixed. I even bought a parley labs sd and put my original hotspot sd in cuz that’s what was suggested to me o. The discord. But the onboarding key seems to be a step I must do through the rak hat.

@TheDivineAges you can't create your own hotspot without being an approved maker.
You can create a data only hotspot but you won't be able to earn any HNT from it.
@vpetersson guess we can close this issue out now as think we have resolved it?
Yep. We have a separate tracker for it.
We've apparently had a lot of 'No Onboarding key' errors based on this Slack thread.
There's even a spreadsheet that tracks them.
I don't know what the root cause is at this point, but for whatever reason the "fix" is to just update the key. That's of course not an appropriate solution.
