How can I know why I've been discualified? Just to lern on what to do

Node Operators troubleshooting

Hi, yesterday my node stopeed working after a few months working with not much info in the logs (that I could understand). I decided to restart the docker and then I saw an error that Notifications.db was not availvable. I Checked on the disk and it was there, it has a size (there was binary data in it) and it was readble by the user running the docker.

I did a google search and in someone thread some suggested to delete the file and it will be re-created at startup. I did that, and the node started working again and become online. A few hours later, I got a message that my node was discualified…

I Know that now I have to reastart my node from scratch and create a new seed, but I will like to learn why this was wrong (just for next time it happens)

Thx in advance for your help

Hello @Chano,
Welcome to the forum!

You may use this guide to figure out the reason:

However, usually it may happen if the data is lost or corrupted or the node was not able to access it (it could be a permissions or hardware issue).

Another reason is if you run the SETUP step for the second time with the wrong path, and then run the container with that wrong path, it will fail to find the previous data. So please check the data path as well.
