# Comprehensive Error Report and Fixes

**Generated**: $(date)  
**Status**: 🔴 **CRITICAL ISSUES FOUND**

---

## Executive Summary

The log analysis revealed **10 errors** and **2 warnings**. The primary issue is that **the backend API server is not running**, which causes all API endpoints to fail.

### Critical Issues

1. ❌ **Backend API server is not running** - All API endpoints return HTTP 000 (connection refused)
2. ❌ **Local API endpoints inaccessible** - `/api/v2/stats`, `/api/v1/blocks`, `/api/v1/transactions` all failing
3. ⚠️ **DNS resolution issue** for explorer.d-bis.org (but HTTPS works, so likely tool issue)

### Working Components

1. ✅ **RPC connectivity** - ChainID 138 RPC is accessible (block 148937)
2. ✅ **Blockscout API** - Both blocks and transactions endpoints working
3. ✅ **Frontend files** - All configuration correct (ethers, Blockscout API, ChainID 138)
4. ✅ **HTTPS connectivity** - explorer.d-bis.org is accessible

## Detailed Error Analysis

### 1. Backend API Server Not Running ❌

**Error**: All API endpoints return HTTP 000 (connection refused)

**Affected Endpoints**:
- `/api/v2/stats` - Stats endpoint
- `/api/v1/blocks` - Blocks listing
- `/api/v1/transactions` - Transactions listing  
- `/api?module=block&action=eth_block_number` - Etherscan-compatible API

**Root Cause**: The backend Go server (`backend/api/rest/main.go`) is not running on port 8080.

**Impact**: 
- Frontend cannot load stats, blocks, or transactions from local API
- Explorer shows "Loading..." indefinitely
- Users see errors when trying to use the explorer

**Solution**:

#### Option 1: Run Backend Server Directly

```bash
cd /home/intlc/projects/proxmox/explorer-monorepo/backend/api/rest

# Set environment variables
export CHAIN_ID=138
export PORT=8080
export DB_HOST=localhost
export DB_PORT=5432
export DB_USER=explorer
export DB_PASSWORD=your_password
export DB_NAME=explorer

# Run the server
go run main.go
```

#### Option 2: Build and Run

```bash
cd /home/intlc/projects/proxmox/explorer-monorepo/backend/api/rest

# Build
go build -o api-server main.go

# Run
./api-server
```

#### Option 3: Create Systemd Service

Create `/etc/systemd/system/explorer-api.service`:

```ini
[Unit]
Description=Explorer API Server
After=network.target postgresql.service

[Service]
Type=simple
User=explorer
WorkingDirectory=/home/intlc/projects/proxmox/explorer-monorepo/backend/api/rest
Environment="CHAIN_ID=138"
Environment="PORT=8080"
Environment="DB_HOST=localhost"
Environment="DB_PORT=5432"
Environment="DB_USER=explorer"
Environment="DB_PASSWORD=your_password"
Environment="DB_NAME=explorer"
ExecStart=/usr/bin/go run main.go
Restart=always
RestartSec=10

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
```

Then:
```bash
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable explorer-api
sudo systemctl start explorer-api
sudo systemctl status explorer-api
```

### 2. Database Configuration Required ⚠️

**Issue**: Backend requires database connection but configuration may be missing.

**Check Database Config**:

The backend uses `github.com/explorer/backend/database/config`. Check:
- `backend/database/config/config.go` - Database configuration loader
- Environment variables or config file for database credentials

**Required Environment Variables**:
```bash
DB_HOST=localhost          # Database host
DB_PORT=5432              # Database port
DB_USER=explorer          # Database user
DB_PASSWORD=your_password # Database password
DB_NAME=explorer          # Database name
```

**Verify Database Connection**:

```bash
# Test PostgreSQL connection
psql -h localhost -U explorer -d explorer -c "SELECT 1;"

# Or using connection string
psql "postgresql://explorer:password@localhost:5432/explorer" -c "SELECT 1;"
```

### 3. DNS Resolution Issue (Non-Critical) ⚠️

**Error**: DNS resolution failed for explorer.d-bis.org

**Status**: HTTPS connectivity works, so this is likely a tool issue (host command may not be available or configured).

**Impact**: None - the explorer is accessible via HTTPS.

**Solution**: No action needed. The `host` command may not be installed or DNS may be configured differently.

## Frontend Status ✅

### Configuration Check

All frontend configurations are correct:

1. ✅ **Ethers Library**: Properly referenced with CDN fallbacks
2. ✅ **Blockscout API**: Configured for ChainID 138 (`https://explorer.d-bis.org/api`)
3. ✅ **ChainID 138**: Correctly set in frontend code
4. ✅ **Error Handling**: 16 console.error calls and 26 try-catch blocks found

### Frontend API Configuration

The frontend is configured to use:
- **API_BASE**: `/api` (relative path, expects backend on same domain)
- **Blockscout API**: `https://explorer.d-bis.org/api` (for ChainID 138)
- **CHAIN_ID**: `138` (Hyperledger Besu)

**Note**: Since the backend is not running, the frontend will fall back to Blockscout API for ChainID 138, which is working correctly.

---

## Blockscout API Status ✅

Blockscout API is fully operational:

1. ✅ **Blocks Endpoint**: `/api/v2/blocks` - Working
2. ✅ **Transactions Endpoint**: `/api/v2/transactions` - Working

**Sample Response** (Blocks):
```json
{
  "hash": "0x8009c73dca6df6f8238f312d1620135a2828af0035ab42d00c1d4388752c980e",
  "height": 149477,
  "gas_used": "0",
  "gas_limit": "30000000",
  ...
}
```

**Sample Response** (Transactions):
```json
{
  "hash": "0xf63943dda9803d0afdd8c4c9bea990054cd8cf16482da7a4265e0a700828888b",
  "result": "success",
  "type": 2,
  ...
}
```

## Network Status ✅

### RPC Connectivity

- **Status**: ✅ Accessible
- **Current Block**: 148937
- **RPC URL**: `http://192.168.11.250:8545`
- **Chain ID**: 138

### HTTPS Connectivity

- **Status**: ✅ Accessible
- **URL**: `https://explorer.d-bis.org`
- **Blockscout API**: Working correctly

## Immediate Action Items

### Priority 1: Start Backend Server

1. **Check database configuration**:
   ```bash
   cd /home/intlc/projects/proxmox/explorer-monorepo/backend
   cat database/config/config.go  # Review config
   ```

2. **Set environment variables**:
   ```bash
   export CHAIN_ID=138
   export PORT=8080
   export DB_HOST=localhost
   export DB_PORT=5432
   export DB_USER=explorer
   export DB_PASSWORD=your_password
   export DB_NAME=explorer
   ```

3. **Start the server**:
   ```bash
   cd backend/api/rest
   go run main.go
   ```

4. **Verify it's running**:
   ```bash
   curl http://localhost:8080/health
   curl http://localhost:8080/api/v2/stats
   ```

### Priority 2: Verify Database

1. **Check if database exists**:
   ```bash
   psql -h localhost -U explorer -l | grep explorer
   ```

2. **Check database schema**:
   ```bash
   psql -h localhost -U explorer -d explorer -c "\dt"
   ```

3. **Verify tables exist**:
   - `blocks`
   - `transactions`
   - `addresses`

### Priority 3: Test All Endpoints

After starting the backend, run the diagnostic script again:

```bash
cd /home/intlc/projects/proxmox/explorer-monorepo
./scripts/check-logs-and-errors.sh
```

---

## Expected Behavior After Fixes

Once the backend is running:

1. ✅ `/api/v2/stats` should return statistics
2. ✅ `/api/v1/blocks` should return block list
3. ✅ `/api/v1/transactions` should return transaction list
4. ✅ `/api?module=block&action=eth_block_number` should return latest block number
5. ✅ Frontend should load data from both local API and Blockscout
6. ✅ Health endpoint `/health` should return service status

---

## Monitoring and Logging

### Backend Logs

The backend uses Go's standard `log` package. Logs will show:
- Server startup: `Starting SolaceScanScout REST API server on :8080`
- Request logs: `GET /api/v2/stats 200 2.5ms`
- Errors: Database connection errors, query failures, etc.

### Frontend Console

Check browser console (F12) for:
- Ethers library loading status
- API call errors
- Network request failures

### Health Check Endpoint

Once backend is running, check health:

```bash
curl http://localhost:8080/health
```

Expected response:
```json
{
  "status": "healthy",
  "timestamp": "2025-12-24T08:55:07Z",
  "services": {
    "database": "ok",
    "api": "ok"
  },
  "chain_id": 138,
  "explorer": {
    "name": "SolaceScanScout",
    "version": "1.0.0"
  }
}
```

## Summary

### ✅ What's Working
- RPC connectivity (ChainID 138)
- Blockscout API (all endpoints)
- Frontend configuration
- HTTPS connectivity

### ❌ What's Broken
- Backend API server (not running)
- All local API endpoints
- Database connectivity check (can't verify without backend)

### 🔧 What Needs Fixing
1. **Start backend server** (Priority 1)
2. **Verify database configuration** (Priority 2)
3. **Test all endpoints** (Priority 3)

---

**Next Steps**: Start the backend server and re-run the diagnostic script to verify all issues are resolved.
