Rebalance continually fails with: "Temporary Channel Failure"
Two channels open. Both have roughly 600k sats in outbound, and trying to rebalance 300k sats from A to B.
I've tried numerous times, both leaving fee undefined, and by putting in various small numbers for fee.
It always finds a route, but the rebalance fails with the error "Temporary Channel Failure"
One of the channels in the route seems to not have enough capacity. Have you tried the advanced rebalancing? It tends to work better
I have the same problem and just can't get any further.
Getting this error a lot, even in cases like these:
2021-07-12 19:49:59 info [THUB]: {
"evaluating": [
"\u001b[90m69x1x1\u001b[39m ★ ★ ★ ★",
"\u001b[92mFOO\u001b[39m 112233. Fee rate: 0.00% (3)",
"\u001b[90m64x3x0\u001b[39m",
"\u001b[92mGOO\u001b[39m 445566. Fee rate: 0.00% (3)",
"\u001b[90m69x1x0\u001b[39m"
]
}
2021-07-12 19:50:04 info [THUB]: {
"failure": "TemporaryChannelFailure at 644x3x0 from FOO"
}
where FOO
and GOO
are two well connected nodes (both with each other as well as with my node), with a decent rebalance target and fees much higher than the fee rates described, and yet TemporaryChannelFailure
comes up repeatedly.
What exactly does this error mean? Is this a temporary network failure due to downtime, or not enough liquidity? How can I use this information to attempt a successful rebalance?
