Today I missed the block. I checked the producer and relays (peer connections, uptime, disk, memory, certificates, uptime) and all looks fine. In the logs I found the following. Can someone explain to me what happened? "kind": "TraceMempoolRejectedTx", "err": { "produced": { "po…

Can you check the hash of your VRF verification key: cardano-cli node key-hash-VRF --verification-key-file vrf.vkey and compare it to the one displayed on cardanoscan.io for your stake pool (“Vrf Hash” field)? Are they the same?

Yes. It is the same [image] ZORBA The Greek Pool - Cardanoscan ZORBA The Greek Pool page shows the pool history, cost, margin, epoch history and more. $ cardano-cli node key-hash-VRF --verification-key-file vrf.vkey e52cd41c94e36f6e4bfce6cdff08dd83cacfd123c4…

When I missed block in testnet, for me was very usefull to search for that time in logs on both relays and producer. Something like this: more ./cardano.log | grep "2021-12-31 08:32" In my case I had a problem with connectivity from relay to BP, so BP minted block correctly, but it wasn’t pulled. …

Are you running chrony on all the nodes (block producer and relay(s))?

This is the relevant part from the logs: {“thread”:“208”,“sev”:“Info”,“data”:{“val”:{“kind”:“TraceNodeNotLeader”,“slot”:49778704},“credentials”:“Cardano”},“loc”:null,“env”:“1.32.1:4f65f”,“msg”:"",“app”:,“host”:“producer”,“at”:“2022-01-05T01:09:55.00Z”,“ns”:[“cardano.node.Forge”],“pid”:“12314”} You…

I don’t see any messages that block was minted, so this is something not ok, I would assume. Are you sure that times are correct? What you have in logs when you do mint log successfully? Can you post your logs from relay at that time? Can you run this on your BP? curl -s localhost:12798/metrics …

I don’t think the key is the problem $ cardano-cli key verification-key --signing-key-file vrf.skey --verification-key-file /tmp/vrf.vkey $ cardano-cli node key-hash-VRF --verification-key-file /tmp/vrf.vkey e52cd41c94e36f6e4bfce6cdff08dd83cacfd123c44dc323d97a67ba9829fd89
