Configuration Files Fixed

Date: $(date)
Action: Removed deprecated configuration options from all Besu config files

Issue

All Besu services were failing with errors:

Unknown options in TOML configuration file: log-destination, max-remote-initiated-connections, trie-logs-enabled, accounts-enabled, database-path

These deprecated options caused services to exit immediately and restart in loops.

Fix Applied

Deprecated/Invalid Options Removed

The following deprecated and invalid options were removed from all configuration files:

log-destination - Removed (logging controlled by logging option)
max-remote-initiated-connections - Removed (deprecated in Besu v23.10.0)
trie-logs-enabled - Removed (deprecated)
accounts-enabled - Removed (deprecated)
database-path - Removed (uses data-path instead)
rpc-http-host-allowlist - Removed from sentry/RPC configs (deprecated)
rpc-tx-feecap="0x0" - Removed (invalid value - "0x0" cannot be converted to Wei)
fast-sync-min-peers - Removed (incompatible with FULL sync-mode)
tx-pool-* options - Removed (legacy transaction pool options incompatible with layered implementation: tx-pool-max-size, tx-pool-price-bump, tx-pool-retention-hours)
Fixed permissions-nodes.toml - Replaced placeholder IPs (<node-1-ip>, etc.) with actual validator IPs (192.168.11.100-104), removed entries for undeployed nodes, and fixed node IDs to exactly 128 hexadecimal characters
Disabled account permissioning for validators - Changed permissions-accounts-config-file-enabled=false since the permissions-accounts.toml file doesn't exist

Files Fixed

Validators (1000-1004)

✅ Fixed /etc/besu/config-validator.toml (5 files)
Removed: log-destination, max-remote-initiated-connections, trie-logs-enabled, accounts-enabled, database-path, rpc-tx-feecap, fast-sync-min-peers, tx-pool-max-size, tx-pool-price-bump

Sentries (1500-1503)

✅ Fixed /etc/besu/config-sentry.toml (4 files)
Removed: log-destination, max-remote-initiated-connections, trie-logs-enabled, accounts-enabled, database-path, rpc-http-host-allowlist, rpc-tx-feecap, fast-sync-min-peers, tx-pool-max-size, tx-pool-price-bump, tx-pool-retention-hours

RPC Nodes (2500-2502)

✅ Fixed /etc/besu/config-rpc-public.toml (3 files)
Removed: log-destination, max-remote-initiated-connections, trie-logs-enabled, accounts-enabled, database-path, rpc-http-host-allowlist, rpc-tx-feecap, fast-sync-min-peers, tx-pool-max-size, tx-pool-price-bump, tx-pool-retention-hours

Method Used

Used sed to remove deprecated option lines from config files:

# Validators - remove deprecated/invalid/incompatible options
sed -i '/^log-destination=/d; /^max-remote-initiated-connections=/d; /^trie-logs-enabled=/d; /^accounts-enabled=/d; /^database-path=/d; /^rpc-tx-feecap=/d; /^fast-sync-min-peers=/d; /^tx-pool-/d' /etc/besu/config-validator.toml

# Sentries and RPC - remove deprecated/invalid/incompatible options
sed -i '/^log-destination=/d; /^max-remote-initiated-connections=/d; /^trie-logs-enabled=/d; /^accounts-enabled=/d; /^database-path=/d; /^rpc-http-host-allowlist=/d; /^rpc-tx-feecap=/d; /^fast-sync-min-peers=/d; /^tx-pool-/d' /etc/besu/config-sentry.toml

Services Restarted

All services were restarted after fixing configuration files:

✅ Validators: 5/5 restarted
✅ Sentries: 4/4 restarted
✅ RPC Nodes: 3/3 restarted

Expected Results

After this fix:

✅ Services should start without configuration errors
✅ No more "Unknown options" errors
✅ Services should stay running (no restart loops)
✅ Besu processes should remain active
✅ Block processing should begin once services are stable

Verification

Check for Configuration Errors

# Check logs for "Unknown options" errors (should be zero)
for vmid in 1000 1001 1002 1003 1004; do
    errors=$(pct exec $vmid -- journalctl -u besu-validator.service --since '1 minute ago' --no-pager 2>/dev/null | grep -i 'Unknown options' | wc -l)
    echo "VMID $vmid: $errors config errors"
done

Check Service Status

# All services should show "active" or "activating" (not restarting)
for vmid in 1000 1001 1002 1003 1004 1500 1501 1502 1503 2500 2501 2502; do
    if [[ $vmid -lt 1500 ]]; then
        service="besu-validator"
    elif [[ $vmid -lt 2500 ]]; then
        service="besu-sentry"
    else
        service="besu-rpc"
    fi
    echo "VMID $vmid: $(pct exec $vmid -- systemctl is-active $service.service)"
done

Check for Successful Startup

# Look for successful startup messages (not just errors)
for vmid in 1000 1001 1002; do
    echo "=== VMID $vmid ==="
    pct exec $vmid -- journalctl -u besu-validator.service --since '2 minutes ago' --no-pager 2>/dev/null | grep -vE 'systemd|Unknown options' | tail -15
done

Next Steps

✅ Configuration Fixed - Deprecated options removed
✅ Services Restarted - All services restarted with fixed config
⏳ Monitor Services - Verify services start successfully
⏳ Check for Errors - Ensure no new errors appear
⏳ Verify Block Processing - Check if blocks are being processed once services are stable

Additional Fixes

permissions-nodes.toml Fix

The permissions-nodes.toml file contained placeholder IP addresses like <node-1-ip>, <node-2-ip>, etc. These were replaced with actual validator IP addresses:

<node-1-ip> → 192.168.11.100 (Validator 1000)
<node-2-ip> → 192.168.11.101 (Validator 1001)
<node-3-ip> → 192.168.11.102 (Validator 1002)
<node-4-ip> → 192.168.11.103 (Validator 1003)
<node-5-ip> → 192.168.11.104 (Validator 1004)

Entries with remaining placeholder IPs (for undeployed nodes) were removed to prevent configuration errors. These can be added back when those nodes are deployed.

Notes

The data-path option remains (this is correct and replaces database-path)
Logging is controlled by the logging option (removed log-destination)
Network settings remain unchanged
All other valid options remain in config files
Only validator nodes (1000-1004) are included in permissions-nodes.toml for now

Status: ✅ CONFIGURATION FILES FIXED - SERVICES RESTARTED
