Hi noticed my Umbrel wasn’t running today, wiped the SD card and am now at this screen, tried a few things on this forum but still won’t boot, been fine for months!!! ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/getumbrel/original/2X/d/d1cfb1b9fa3e465d99c77a29bc71ad461eb02c5d.png) ---

Check the troubleshooting manual in the Guides section and through SSH run the debug logs. Look into the logs and see where is the error, it’s easy to read them, if not, paste them into [0bin.net](http://0bin.net) and post the link here so others can help you to read it. ---

big. You ignored a simple advice. That shows from the start that you do not pay attention to details. Running a node is PAYING ATTENTION TO DETAILS. ---

Man, is not about any stupid etiquette, is about being practical and provide the right info in order to be helped. If you think that was just a stupid recommendation, please go on, post here pages of logs, nobody will read that in that format and you will get no help. Don’t try to be smart just because you are lazy to paste a stupid log in a dedicated page… I am trying to help you but not without minimal effort from you… ---

Can you please explain to me why you cannot read the text in the above post but if it’s copy-pasted via a link then you can? it makes zero difference… I’ve been on the forum since near inception and I’ve never seen anyone request this before. ---

With the time you wasted to argue this, you could have posted it on [0bin.net](http://0bin.net) [https://0bin.net/paste/QLd5LRkl#MWuK49LLLDVaNwDbM1KjQ9YQbxxy0mEYXEFGG4anAm4](https://0bin.net/paste/QLd5LRkl#MWuK49LLLDVaNwDbM1KjQ9YQbxxy0mEYXEFGG4anAm4) ---

I just want to understand why I see no reason… ---

Much Easier to read, because you can colorized it If you look for the error part and google it , you would have found the solution already ---

“much easier to read”…nope its exactly the same dam thing! I’ve had a look can find no real solution, I don’t think I’ll bother anymore, I’ve had to download the blockchain 3 times now, this junk sw doesn’t work reliably enough. ---

Like you said “It worked for months” So something must have changed. Clone an extra drive as backup next time or just quit Up to you ---

I think at this point quitting is easier, I’ve been with Umbrel from the first week and its always been unstable, the devs seem so keen to add more features and complexity and the basic OS and update process is still so flakey, I know why, because they are on the desperate hunt to monetize it, which I get, but if the core product sucks then how will that happen?? So far I’ve invested too much money and time into this.
