Basicstation gateway connection issue

[qmichl]

Since about 4 hours I’m facing an issue with my gateway that has been working over weeks now. I run basicstation 2.0.6 on RAK831 hardware, and there is now a permanent ssl issue visible when it tried to reconnect:

Feb 15 12:13:38 lora station[2428]: 2023-02-15 12:13:38.619 [AIO:ERRO] Recv failed: SSL - The peer notified us that the connection is going to be closed
Feb 15 12:13:39 lora station[2428]: 2023-02-15 12:13:38.960 [RAL:ERRO] Concentrator start failed: lgw_start
Feb 15 12:13:39 lora station[2428]: 2023-02-15 12:13:38.960 [RAL:ERRO] ral_config failed with status 0x08
Feb 15 12:13:39 lora station[2428]: 2023-02-15 12:13:38.960 [any:ERRO] Closing connection to muxs - error in s2e_onMsg

I tried also a spare gateway that I have configured two weeks ago. It shows the same issue. Both have been working recently and I assume that this is maybe not a issue of the gateway then, not sure.

The status page shows no issues: https://status.thethings.network/

Does anybody else see that as well?

Metrics for LoRa Basics Station gateways looks fine in the clusters. Also the certs are still valid.

I don’t see this in the logs. Can you enable debug and look for the cause?

I found the problem.

after raising the debug level and further repower the gateway the ssl issue was gone, and also the concentrator board was not reachable anymore via SPI. The reason was a hardware issue, a broken solder joint on the SPI connector that caused one of the data lines beeing not connected well. @KrishnaIyerEaswaran2 thank you for looking into that.
