Could you post the exact versions you are running? It would also make sense to upgrade to 0.16.2 before continuing to debug. What's the status of lncli getinfo
synced_to_graph
of node 1? lncli getnetworkinfo
output would be useful as well.
Channels are usually marked as zombie channels if their funding transaction doesn't exist onchain when a channel announcement is received (but this can't happen for neutrino nodes as they don't validate the funding tx). Another way a channel is marked as a zombie is if it gets deleted from the graph (if a closing transaction was found).
Zombie channels can get into a live state again when a zombie update is processed. You could try to set a different fee for the channel (on both nodes 2 and 3), using lncli updatechanpolicy
. But I guess the channel would only be added to the graph if also the channel announcement is resent (which probably won't happen). So ultimately not sure why this channel is the zombie state.
weridly after opening another channel it shows up on node1 but the other channels between node2 and node3 are still marked as zombie
yup will update to v0.16.2
Background
I have 4 nodes node1 (neutrino) node2 (neutrino) node3 (routing full bitcoind node) node4 (full bitcoind node)
When trying to pay an invoice from (node4) -> (node3) -> (node2) it works
but paying from (node1) -> (node3) -> (node2) it fails
On node1 I run
lncli getchaninfo <node2 chan id>
and I get[lncli] rpc error: code = Unknown desc = edge marked as zombie
when I run the same command on node2 and node3 I get a valid response
is there a way to manually mark a channel id as not a zombie channel as the channel works. I've tried peering directly with the node still no luck
Your environment
lnd
15.4 and 0.16.1uname -a
on *Nix) aarch64 Linuxbtcd
,bitcoind
, or other backend v24.0Steps to reproduce
Not exactly sure other than running two nodes in neutrino and one with a full bitcoind but its not certain that it would make the channel marked as zombie
Expected behaviour
I should be able to pay the invoice as normal
Actual behaviour
I get
Payment status: FAILED, reason: FAILURE_REASON_NO_ROUTE
