Lightning payments fail all the time - channel gets force closed #9079
Comments
Thank you for the logs.
I am trying to figure out why the trampoline has force closed. Do you have logs for 2024.05.13? |
(related #9050) |
This is the eclair log. I suspect an issue with the replay of messages after disconnect. (HTLC 273 is sent twice) |
electrum_log_20240513T191554Z_5664.log Here is another log I have |
Thanks. unfortunately this log starts after the relevant time. |
Unfortunately these are all the log files I see in the directory. I will re-open a new payment channel and will post here the logs when I make payments which fail. |
My channel was also force closed out of the blue. Electrum has been idling in background for months, I did not touch it and all of a sudden I got a transaction notification from OS, and saw my channel is being force closed. This cost me a significant amount of money for no reason. I don't think I'll be using Electrum for Lightning anymore - too many problems. It's not acceptable to suddenly have Bitcoin eaten by transaction fees caused by what appears to be a software bug. And no, I do not have logs. Why on earth are logs not enabled by default??? |
Ok this happened again. Obviously as @khell said, this makes lightning wallet effectively unusable as this results in losing lots of money all the time. electrum_log_20240612T154524Z_7568.log |
Another log file |
Over the last month I opened 2 trampoline channels. Initially, the channel seemed to be working fine, i.e. a payment was processed almost immediately. However, when I came back after a few days to make another payment using the same channel, the payment was not going through and I was getting some error I could not explain. After retrying many many times to get the payment through, the channel got force closed with very high fee (more than 0.002 BTC) and I had to wait 720 blocks to get a portion of that fee back (seeing a transaction with a "computer" icon like it is unbroadcasted, with the description "their_ctx_htlc_0 ....".
Initially I thought this was some random thing but this was the second time in a row it happened. I am attacking logs from both cases. Can you please look into this, because it makes lightning network very unreliable and practically unusable.
