Hello,

So i updated LND & RTL and now my channel’s don’t come online.  
I already deleted the peers.dat & settings.json file but that doesn’t fix it. Bitcoind is working only the lightning channels don’t come online.

Umbrel Troubleshoot logs:

I’m not sure what’s causing the problem, hopefully someone can help me.

Seems like LND may have had a bad start-up, could you please try restarting your Umbrel and see if that resolves the issue.

If that doesn’t work and you are concerned about the funds, you can delete the lightning app, redownload it and then after selecting a back-up these channels should close sending you funds to your onchain address.

So i restarted Umbrel and still see the same error:

Force closing my channels doesn’t seem as a solution to me, since i’m having those issues regulary with Umbrel. Otherwise i have to open channels again and when there is a new LND update i can force close again when i’m getting those issues.  
I’m trying to understand what is causing this i2pd\_daemon\_1 error and what could be a possible fix?
