[2/16 Headers] No block headers to write in this log period block number=37076755 How to fix it ?Thanks
We had the same issue as you @luwang920.
We were able to move forward (or it seems so) with the following command: ./integration stage_exec --datadir=/mnt/erigon/ --chain='bor-mainnet' --unwind 100
(we tried first with 10, then 20 blocks, nothing changed. Jumped to 100 and saw some changes)
version: erigon version 2.31.0-stable-a53e8a3e
Hi alexmance Thanks , it didn't work for me .. I tried to roll back several times...
Hi @luwang920 Just take a look at our servers.. and after 4 hours it crashed again and we are stuck in the same block... sorry man. We decided to re-sync from the official snapshot today, as it has been a few days with this behavior...
this is still an issue for me on

Still happens daily to me with the BSC node on 2.32. unwind usually helps.
also met the same log, I am not sure if it is just expected?
I have tried to run unwind=10 and then restarted the erigon, still see below log

I was stucking in this error for several days.
Unwind , and stop at the same block,
Unwind , and stop at the same block again..
Finally , I downloaded the latest offical snapshot, resync ..
My node is polygon archive mainnet , it took me 3 days to download and unzip the snapshot .....terrible...

@egorFiNE can you help me with the unwind steps you followed for bor-mainnet?
@nandubatchu we gave up on erigon for bor-mainnet. It took something close to 20 days to sync and then threw "no block headers" daily or even more often.

We also think to give up on erigon for BSC. We have the same errors in mainnet and have no answers from Erigon developers.
@mikolajsobolewski on BSC it's not that much of a PITA. It happens like twice per week. You unwind ten blocks, restart and in about 20 minutes or less it's up and running again.

But if we use their geth fork always receives new blocks. I don't know how it doest that, but fact is fact. So i think, that it is the erigon error. We don't want to restart the node 5-6 times per day. it's really strange since 2022 Oct no one work solution.
Updated to 2.34.0 and here we go again. :-(
Same here for both Polygon and BSC Erigon node.
...aaaand again.
Now I'm having this issue multiple times per day on 2.34.0 on BSC BUT a simple restart helps, no need to unwind.
Probably related: https://github.com/ledgerwatch/erigon/issues/6532
Same on 2.36.1 (polygon and bsc)
@egorFiNE
Now I'm having this issue multiple times per day on 2.34.0 on BSC BUT a simple restart helps, no need to unwind.
facing the same issue (No block headers to write in this log period block number ) on version 2.39.0. for bsc. what is the way out here given that i restarted it multiple times.
Hello. I've been stuck with the same problem and fixed it with updating to the latest binary and unwinding: (The client stopped getting new data for more than a couple of weeks I suppose) My flow:

Update! It works!
Latest block at current node is: 26257353
Latest block at mainnet is: 26485629
diff is: 228276
These are our Polygon nodes running Erigon 2.39. (current block over time)
Same condition happens on other networks (BSC, Sepolia etc.)
Right now, when we detect that the node is stalling (flat line on the graph) we need to restart it and it will start processing after ~10 minutes. This is happening at least once per day - sometimes multiple times even.
This issue is stale because it has been open for 40 days with no activity. Remove stale label or comment, or this will be closed in 7 days.
BSC is no longer supported by Erigon. Please consider https://github.com/node-real/bsc-erigon instead.
In my situation, I utilized an older snapshot (e.g., erigon-05-23), and configured --nodiscover
and --bootnodes=xxxx
(the enodes were chosen from here based on their recentness, ensuring no lag between these nodes and other nodes on the mainnet). After removing them and adding --snapshots=false
, the blocks began to sync correctly.
This solution was found in this document. An excerpt from the document is:
curl localhost:8545 -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_syncing","id":1}' -H "Content-Type: application/json"
In my particular situation, the result was:
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"result":false}
However, the block number was 43057508, which could not possibly be the most recent one!
