Channel not auto closing (other node SCB'ed)

[svewa]

running v22.11rc3, ~230 channels

So this other node broke, and the owner used the SCB to recover his funds. My node noticed this, but didn't close the channel. Closing it manually seems to have worked now.

Partial listnodes output:

"state_changes": [
                  {
                     "timestamp": "2022-02-18T12:37:04.689Z",
                     "old_state": "CHANNELD_AWAITING_LOCKIN",
                     "new_state": "CHANNELD_NORMAL",
                     "cause": "user",
                     "message": "Lockin complete"
                  }
               ],
               "status": [
                  "CHANNELD_NORMAL:bad reestablish revocation_number: 0 vs 41393",
                  "CHANNELD_NORMAL:Sent reestablish, waiting for theirs"
               ],

Same issue here with v22.11.

This is the correct behavior. Your node should not force-close merely because of receiving an outdated channel_reestablish. It is the responsibility of the other node (the one that restored the SCB) to send an error message if it wants your node to force-close.

Um, sure. Meanwhile, he should be able to force it!

Try lightning-cli close <channelid> 1 to give them one second before closing. The default is 48 hours!
