Storage-dir-verification file format error on Docker (NAS environment)

Hello @Bossy,
Welcome to the forum!

This file is generated when you use a setup command. This error indicates, that you provided a wrong path to the identity. This node has been using a different identity before.

Please restore this file, if possible and find a correct identity for this data.
You may use this method to check the identity to see does it match the required NodeID (for that you need to know the previous NodeID, not the current one, which doesn’t match):

RaspberryPi crash

./identity certificate-authority id --ca.cert-path /mnt/storagenode2/identity/ca.cert It will print a NodeID. Then you need to search in your logs, what was the NodeID before. Please also SKIP a SETUP step, it must not be executed again for a worked node, otherwise you can destroy it. no, this token is one-time only and can be used only once to sign any identity, after that it has no use. It also doesn’t contain any info related to your node (even to used email address, it’s just used for …

if you have previous logs you can figure out what NodeID was before.

If it’s a new node, then simple generate a new identity and run the setup command, but you need to delete config.yaml to allow the command to finish.
If this node is worked before, but its identity is lost, you can delete it, its data and start from scratch. It will not work with a foreign identity anyway.
