Backtrace

There was this warning WARN[09-28|14:23:02.861] TxLookup pruning, empty block body height=14999999, right before starting Waiting for Consensus Layer. Not sure what that is about.

You need install ConsensusLayer

AskAlexSharov avatar Sep 29 '22 10:09 AskAlexSharov

I woke up this morning to the same scenario. It's not clear to me looking at Erigon's README.md what should be done?

In my case I'm using a stock Docker Compose setup to run Erigon - I thought this approach would give me all the required deps to fire up the node.

mjpowersjr avatar Sep 29 '22 12:09 mjpowersjr

After TheMerge - Erigon it's an Execution Layer. Need connect some Consensus Client to Erigon: https://ethereum.org/en/developers/docs/nodes-and-clients/#consensus-clients

PoW chains still can be synced by Erigon-only.

AskAlexSharov avatar Sep 29 '22 14:09 AskAlexSharov

@AskAlexSharov - Thanks for the follow up!

I'm not sure if I have things setup correctly, but it seems like Prysm is processing blocks...

I was not able to get Lighthouse + Erigon to work together, seems to be authentication related. (details below)

FWIW - Some ideas that might make it easier to get started w. Erigon post-merge:

  • Expand on the documentation surrounding CL/EL setup
  • Maybe offer a few additional docker-compose examples. It's possible to create secondary compose files that users could opt into as a quickstart & example of how to wire clients up.

Launch Erigon + Lighthouse

(not working - see notes below)

docker compose -f docker-compose.yaml -f docker-compose.lighthouse.yaml up -d

docker-compose.lighthouse.yaml

version: '2.2'

services:
  lighthouse:
    image: sigp/lighthouse:latest-modern
    ports: [ "5052:5052/tcp", "5052:5052/udp", "9000:9000/tcp", "9000:9000/udp" ]
    command: |
      lighthouse beacon
        --http
        --execution-endpoint http://erigon:8551 
        --execution-jwt /home/erigon/.local/share/erigon/jwt.hex
    volumes:
      - ${XDG_DATA_HOME:-~/.local/share}/lighthouse:/root/.lighthouse:rw
      - ${XDG_DATA_HOME:-~/.local/share}/erigon:/home/erigon/.local/share/erigon:ro

Launch Erigon + Prysm

docker compose -f docker-compose.yaml -f docker-compose.prysm.yaml up -d

docker-compose.prysm.yml

version: '2.2'

services:
  prysm:
    image: gcr.io/prysmaticlabs/prysm/beacon-chain:stable
    command: |
      --accept-terms-of-use
      --datadir=/data
      --jwt-secret=/home/erigon/.local/share/erigon/jwt.hex
      --rpc-host=0.0.0.0
      --grpc-gateway-host=0.0.0.0
      --monitoring-host=0.0.0.0
      --execution-endpoint=http://erigon:8551
    ports:
      - "4000:4000"
      - "1300:1300"
      - "1200:1200/udp"
    volumes:
      - ${XDG_DATA_HOME:-~/.local/share}/prysm:/data:rw
      - ${XDG_DATA_HOME:-~/.local/share}/erigon:/home/erigon/.local/share/erigon:ro

Notes:

  • For the examples above, I modified the default Erigon docker-compose.yaml. Add the following --authrpc.addr=0.0.0.0 to the erigon service.
  • For some reason Lighthouse would refuse to connect to Erigon. This seems to be JWT related, but I could not track down the root cause. It seems like at least some others have hit similar issues in the past.
  • Reddit discussion about Erigon + Lighhouse
  • https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/3528

@mjpowersjr were you able to get this working ? i'm stuck at same point !

chetanbothra avatar Oct 08 '22 19:10 chetanbothra

@mjpowersjr @chetanbothra A common cause for the InvalidToken errors is that the EL isn't configured to accept requests on a domain other than localhost. In your example setting --authrpc.vhosts erigon in Erigon's config should fix it (as described in the README: https://github.com/ledgerwatch/erigon#beacon-chain-consensus-layer).

michaelsproul avatar Oct 11 '22 01:10 michaelsproul

Thank you @michaelsproul , I tried this but still stuck,

These are steps i tried

Docker-compose service for erigon

services:
  erigon:
    image: thorax/erigon:${TAG:-latest}
    build:
      args:
        UID: ${DOCKER_UID:-1000}

chetanbothra avatar Oct 11 '22 04:10 chetanbothra

@chetanbothra are you running a consensus client too? you need a consensus client like Nimbus, Teku, Lodestar, Prysm or Lighthouse.

michaelsproul avatar Oct 11 '22 04:10 michaelsproul

as per readme Erigon can be used as an Execution Layer (EL) for Consensus Layer clients (CL). Default configuration is OK. so i didnt add anything as such .

Since I'm new and learning, Do u have a reference on how to add consensus client to existing erigon

chetanbothra avatar Oct 11 '22 04:10 chetanbothra

@chetanbothra

A lot of the guides are currently geared towards staking, but if you ignore the parts about generating keys and running a validator client they could be good:

  • Lighthouse guide: https://someresat.medium.com/guide-to-staking-on-ethereum-ubuntu-lighthouse-773f5d982e03

The clients also have docs:

  • Prysm: https://docs.prylabs.network/docs/install/install-with-script
  • Teku: https://docs.teku.consensys.net/en/latest/HowTo/Get-Started/Run-Teku/
  • Lighthouse: https://lighthouse-book.sigmaprime.io/merge-migration.html
  • Geth's docs about consensus clients: https://geth.ethereum.org/docs/interface/consensus-clients

Eth-Docker is another option if you want a docker-based set up:

  • https://eth-docker.net/docs/About/Overview/

michaelsproul avatar Oct 11 '22 04:10 michaelsproul

HI @mjpowersjr Were you able to fix this? Erigon + Lighthouse in docker compose.

nftgeek avatar Oct 21 '22 18:10 nftgeek

Having same issue with Prysm. Any updates on this?

mo-husseini-vc avatar Oct 26 '22 15:10 mo-husseini-vc

I'm encountering this issue during the initial sync, which failed halfway through snapshot 7/16 (out of ram). But upon restarting sync (with more ram/swap space), it skips the remaining snapshots and is stuck at the waiting for consensus layer step. Afaik, erigon client should be able to fully sync first?

freelerobot avatar Nov 10 '22 05:11 freelerobot

@0xSage I m not a expert but i would advice two additional flags if not added already in erigon

  1. --batchSize=512M ( to avoid OOM)
  2. --download.verify

This issue is stale because it has been open for 40 days with no activity. Remove stale label or comment, or this will be closed in 7 days.

HI @mjpowersjr Were you able to fix this? Erigon + Lighthouse in docker compose.

Sorry for the late reply. Unfortunately no - I was not able to resolve the issue. I left my server with spin with a high load average for at least a week hoping things would work out. Eventually I shut everything down until I have spare cycles to revisit.

FWIW I don't know if my hardware is under-powered or I'm just not configuring something correctly. I tried a few different consensus layer clients w. different errors.

When I resume, I'm going to take a close look @ the RocketPool tutorials and see if they have any good tips that might help. (They don't seem to have instructions for erigon, but maybe the consensus layer sections will help).

https://docs.rocketpool.net/guides/node/eth-clients.html#nethermind

Good Luck and sorry I couldn't help more!

mjpowersjr avatar Dec 28 '22 04:12 mjpowersjr

@mjpowersjr lifesaver.

I've found the documentation lacking and confusing.

dreadedhamish avatar Feb 26 '23 07:02 dreadedhamish

Just run the erigon node with --internalcl flag; no need for an external consensus layer.

--internalcl

tanuj-deqode avatar Jun 07 '23 06:06 tanuj-deqode

Just run the erigon node with --internalcl flag; no need for an external consensus layer.

--internalcl

Thanks @tanuj-deqode ! - This feature is an exciting addition to Erigon, I suspect this will be a good way to go for many. (This wasn't available when most of the original discussions above took place)

mjpowersjr avatar Jun 08 '23 18:06 mjpowersjr

Unfortunately I'm seeing the same Waiting for Consensus Layer... while using the --internalcl flag...

anthonyra avatar Jun 19 '23 11:06 anthonyra

Experiencing the same with --internalcl flag set.

null-ref-ex avatar Jul 13 '23 13:07 null-ref-ex

Version? Network?

AskAlexSharov avatar Jul 14 '23 11:07 AskAlexSharov

Goerli, erigon version 2.43.0-stable-1106475e

I enabled lighthouse after removing the internalcl flag and everything has moved past block 8499999

I wonder if it's an issue using the internal CL when sync'ing from scratch or something?
