Good afternoon,

I’m trying to open a channel with the Lightning.Watch node, using the Lightning Terminal app, and I’m getting the following error:

‘‘ **rpc error. code = Unknown desc = invalid vertex string length of 134, want 66** ’’

I changed some options and got the following error.

**‘‘rpc error. code = Unknown desc = tor general error’’**

I used troubleshoting and got the following result:
