Title: LND force closed channel stuck on "waiting_close_channels" Post by: peterpeterpeterschwarz on August 26, 2020, 07:27:57 PM I forced closed a channel awhile ago, but now it has been stuck in "waiting_close_channels" forever. It is not shown in "pending_force_closing_channels".
"waiting_close_channels": [ { "channel": { "remote_node_pub": "03037dc08e9ac63b82581f79b662a4d0ceca8a8ca162b1af3551595b8f2d97b70a", "channel_point": "76e9771241b8c2c39a2e465adf3826b3850d3fb6b1ed947d12beb983ab9a5d4b:1", "capacity": "7900000", "local_balance": "7872973", "remote_balance": "0", "local_chan_reserve_sat": "79000", "remote_chan_reserve_sat": "79000", "initiator": "INITIATOR_LOCAL", "commitment_type": "STATIC_REMOTE_KEY" }, "limbo_balance": "7872973", "commitments": { "local_txid": "b64f7d9a4b4eea9bd4952931aed15f2dfc149e9513974f136eda14455de463ad", "remote_txid": "a8d4ceef7a6091b67ab8e3fca17bdcdd1cdf8fe165ca2738e65dd53ee8e284ee", "remote_pending_txid": "", "local_commit_fee_sat": "27027", "remote_commit_fee_sat": "27027", "remote_pending_commit_fee_sat": "0" When I try to close it again I get: [lncli] rpc error: code = Unknown desc = channel is already in the process of being force closed I am running LND 0.10.4-beta and bitcoind 0.20.1 Any Idea what I could do?

Maybe this can help you: https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/issues/2636 https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/issues/4337 From the posts it seems the reasons they didn't close were low fees and unconfirmed on-chain transaction that closes the payment channel.

It is not shown in "pending_force_closing_channels". What was "a while ago" hours / days / week? Could be what Pmalek said and you have too low a fee. Do you know what the fee was? Why did you force close instead of regular close? How much was in the channel? You will might get a better response posting the question / issue in the LND github. -Dave |
