Elements Core Error code: ECONNRESET

Support and Troubleshooting
1

I installed elements core which synced after a day, however after a reboot, when launching I get:

There was an error connecting to Elements Core. Error code: ECONNRESET

I don’t run elementsd on umbrel, but based on this guide, I’d advise to look into the logs to provide further details here.
sudo docker logs -f -n 200 elements

Reading your logs, I can’t see a configuration error. Perhaps it’s running out of RAM. Are you running it on a 4GB Pi or 8GB? Worth checking whether you have this config entry.

So perhaps you just need to restart elements as it’s written there until the IBD is complete. Because it looks like it losing the connection at some point, which could hint towards running out of memory.

Same issue here. Upgraded to Raspi 5 for 8gb just to overcome RAM issues. Worked for a while after initial verification, now stuck on ECONNRESET. Want to use it with Peerswap.

Restarting it didn’t work. Anyone have a fix?

I had this same issue, this worked for me.

I uninstalled Elements and stopped all apps (except Bitcoin Core) before reinstalling it. During IBD, when the memory usage of Elements would get really high I’d restart it periodically.

Seems to be working normally now, with ~3GB of memory usage (still quite high :man_shrugging:).
