Migrating from Umbrel to Start9 (LND) - Weird onchain transaction
291 sats \ 8 comments \ @Wumbo 19 Nov 2023 bitcoin
I decided it was time to upgrade some hardware for my lightning node. While upgrading the hardware I decided to switch to Start9 OS from Umbrel.
Migration seem to have gone ok but with one exception: a decent chuck of On Chain BTC is showing up as Pending instead of Available.
There is an onchain transaction listed in the "chain" section of ThunderHub for a couple hundred sats.
The Output Addresses is in my list of chain UTXOs in thunderhub. The UTXO has zero confirmations and the transaction ID is not showing up (not found) in my mempool or mempool .space
Any help and insight would be helpful.

Ensure that your new node setup with Start9 OS is fully synced with the Bitcoin network. If it’s not fully synced, it might not show the correct transaction status.
Ensure that no double-spend attempt has been made from your wallet. This could complicate the confirmation of your transaction.
If the transaction was initially sent with the RBF flag enabled, you might be able to increase the fee to expedite confirmation.

Node is fully synced.
The BTC address shows a zero amount and no transactions history when I check with https://mempool.space/ Complete virgin address.
The transaction does not show up at all in https://mempool.space/ (not found).
I thought about doing RBF, I don't know if the flag is set because or what the orignal fee amount is, I can not see details of transaction.
I also thought I might try to find the private key for that address in Thunderhub and go sweep it to a different wallet.

Is the original UTXO back in your wallet? Maybe it got purged from the mempool

No, I don't see the original UTXO (or what I think the original is)
I just see the new address in the Pending section.
You might be on to something about it getting purged. Because I can't see the details of the transactions it is possible the fee is low enough not to get include in mempool.

I see a "Reset Wallet Transactions" option under actions for LND.
At quick glance it sounds like a possible option to try.
Any one have personal experience with this option?

The Reset Wallet Transactions in LND seems to have solved the problem.
Here is a similar write up that helped me: https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/issues/7507
Having a pending channel close appears to be what caused the issue.
For anyone who finds this in the future. Wait to do migration till force closed has been resolved.
The Reset Wallet Transactions took several hours to run and complete.
