ERROR: 2021/07/17 13:27:01 Could not find Channel of Channel Creation wuQmvp

[lschmierer]

I tried creating a channel using boltzcli create channel 1000000 25 and subsequently transacted the specified amount (1005340 sats) to 3J7yf1k5JmgAs83ArzRrLcaacSHBp2ktpj.
https://mempool.space/tx/2ef8bc6939fac6ec283e0c7f42117b1d9d82196c63c6bdb9b115c9722f539286

Although the transaction is confirmed, no channel is opened to my node.

Why is no channel created?
How can I recover my funds using boltz-lnd?

Boltz tried paying the invoice on an preexisting channel with another node instead of creating a new channel.

I cancelled the invoice. How can I get the refund with boltz-lnd?

boltzcli swapinfo wuQmvp now gives a server error.

Why is no channel created?

Good question. I will look into what happened from our point of view and get back to you.

How can I recover my funds using boltz-lnd?

Just keep the application running. boltz-lnd will automatically refund to the onchain wallet of LND after timeoutBlockHeight passed. Block number 691580 in your case.

I removed some of the values in your first message. Those are the ones needed to refund and could have been used to steal your funds. The swapinfo command gives you all information about the swap in the database, including the keys and other sensitive information.

Thank you very much, I am feeling quiet embarrassed for pasting my secrets 🙈

Any idea why the channel was not created? Is that an issue on Boltz server-side?

One question: Was I supposed to manually send BTC to the lockupAddress or should boltz-lnd have taken care of this?

[michael1011]

Is that an issue on Boltz server-side?

Yes, it was a server-side issue. I am still trying to fully understand what went wrong. Once I fix the issue, I'll get back to you.

One question: Was I supposed to manually send BTC to the lockupAddress or should boltz-lnd have taken care of this?

You were supposed to send the onchain BTC yourself. boltz-lnd does not send any onchain funds from your LND wallet.
