ldk-node Error

[thisispav]

Setup a new RN wallet, did a CJIT (Phoenix to Bitkit) then updated to native v169 successfully.

Went to check the LN connections and I've been stuck on this window for the past 5 min. Tried closing and re-opening the app multiple times to no avail.

Test if it is the same case of #652

[jvsena42]

Yes, the PR #657 should fix issue #676. The logs confirm it's the same root cause.

Evidence from the logs

Bitkit logs show:
ERROR [LightningRepo.kt:158] Error executing 'sync' [AppError='Syncing transactions timed out.']
WARN [LightningRepo.kt:258] Start error, retrying after 2s...
ERROR [WalletViewModel.kt:256] Node startup error [AppError='LDK Node error: The node is already running.']

LDK logs show the infinite loop (repeated 20+ times):
Inconsistency: Tx 2fdeb00bd9ce3cd58455fe8cc8c8209edb864e51b3b9df316eb862b7f57e65af was unconfirmed during syncing: Electrum server error: {"code":1,"message":"No confirmed transaction matching the
requested hash was found"}
Encountered inconsistency during transaction sync, restarting.

Root Cause

The user's zero-conf channel funding transaction (2fdeb00b...) isn't confirmed yet on Electrum. LDK tries to sync it, gets an inconsistency error, and restarts sync. This creates an infinite loop that:

1. Times out the sync operation
2. Incorrectly resets node state while the service is running
3. Causes "node is already running" errors when it tries to restart
4. Makes the app unresponsive
