Hello,
I have a start9 where I am running a btc core node pruned, and I would like to use LND with it as well. The btc node is fully synced, but after about a day the LND node is not synced, and I keep seeing this error message in the logs over and over:
[ERR] SRVR: Unable to retrieve initial bootstrap peers: no addresses found
Any tips to get this to work ? I know LND instructions say archival is better but for this particular start9 server I am running, I do not want to devote disk space to the entire block chain. So any tips from anyone in the community to get this to work with a pruned node would be greatly appreciated.
Hi there. You can run a LND node as well as CLN node on a pruned Bitcoin Node without a problem, depending on your hardware. It might just be that you are seeing that you are not able to bootstrap a connection to any peers for LND to synch to the graph.
To fix this there are a couple of things you can try. First, I’d try just. Opening the LND Config on the Services page and simply clicking Save without changing anything from the default settings.
If that still dowsn’t work then I’d manually Restart the Service, followed by Restarting the Server to see if any of those steps help jumpstart the synching to graph for LND.
