I’m trying to start new storagenode.

Followed guide,  
but getting this error in the log:

2019-08-28T03:30:19.997Z WARN kademlia kademlia/kademlia.go:156 No bootsrap address specified {“STORAGE”: “12T3ZXA96tu6C3JG7tVsZ5S8kEcR95ynwk1QoQDQ4jXJokJ7jAU”}

and here is dashboard output:

Any idea why my storagenode may not have bootstrap URL defined?

Your storage node is offline, according to the dashboard.

Can you do the checks mentioned on [Node stopped responding overnight. Still shows OFFLINE after restart](https://forum.storj.io/t/node-stopped-responding-overnight-still-shows-offline-after-restart/1268/6)

Please, post your docker run command too.

</div>

my docker command:

```auto
docker run -d --restart unless-stopped \
    -p 28967:28967 \
    -p 14002:14002 \
    -e WALLET="0x277b6D64AF9a1D0BA1E8Be24Bb657409B0de8363" \

    -e STORAGE="1400GB" \
    --mount type=bind,source="/home/slavik/.local/share/storj/identity/storagenode",destination=/app/identity \
    --mount type=bind,source="/var/storj",destination=/app/config \
    --name storagenode \
    storjlabs/storagenode

```

There is no firewall.  
I can SSH and ping using it’s hostname `deb10b.slavikf.com`  
Identity looks ok.

not sure, what else can go wrong…

By the way, there is one more error present, every time I’m starting node:

WARN storagenode/main.go:164 Failed to initialize telemetry batcher: process error: telemetry disabled

[storj.io/storj/pkg/process.cleanup.func1.2](http://storj.io/storj/pkg/process.cleanup.func1.2)

And my storagenode has internet connection, as far as I can see:

```auto
slavik@deb10b:~$ sudo docker exec storagenode wget -q -O - ifconfig.co

</div>

I’m a bit curious why you have 2 different port paramaters:

```
docker run -d --restart unless-stopped \
-p 28967:28967 \
-p 14002:14002 \

```

Is there a reason for this?

Can you try removing the second  
`-p 14002:14002`

port 14002 is for dashboard.

It doesn’t look like it’s directly compatible with prometheus as is. It would be really nice if it was.

Tried without it: no difference.

Try to remove the `config.yaml` and restart the node `docker restart -t 300 storagenode`

Hi  
As I was going through the same error, after reading and implementing this thread I solved my issues with Prometheus (-ad removed-). I was curious about different port parameters but the solved the problem.  
Thank you all.
