taiko-client /status endpoint runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer deference

[wolfderechter]

Describe the bug

The /status endpoint of provers isn't working anymore this testnet. I tried with multiple prover IP addresses, see image for logs of the error

Steps to reproduce

1. visit <prover IP address>:9876/status
2. error appears

Which way are you running taiko-node? stn or simple-taiko-node?

[YoGhurt111]

You can run a prover with simple-taiko-node.

I haven't been able to run a prover myself, but I think most of the provers are using simple-taiko-node. I need this /status endpoint to setup my prover marketplace.

Try for yourself with any prover IP address or one of the following from the discord:
http://kenz-prover.hekla.kzvn.xyz:9876/status
http://hekla.stonemac65.xyz:9876/status
http://taiko.web3crypt.net:9876/status
http://198.244.201.79:9876/status

Normally you should see a simple json with status values (

taiko-client/prover/server/api.go

Lines 44 to 69 in c421f0f

	// Status represents the current prover server status.
	type Status struct {
	MinOptimisticTierFee uint64 `json:"minOptimisticTierFee"`
	MinSgxTierFee uint64 `json:"minSgxTierFee"`
	MinSgxAndZkVMTierFee uint64 `json:"minSgxAndZkVMTierFee"`
	MaxExpiry uint64 `json:"maxExpiry"`
	Prover string `json:"prover"`
	}
	// GetStatus handles a query to the current prover server status.
	//
	// @Summary Get current prover server status
	// @ID get-status
	// @Accept json
	// @Produce json
	// @Success 200 {object} Status
	// @Router /status [get]
	func (s *ProverServer) GetStatus(c echo.Context) error {
	return c.JSON(http.StatusOK, &Status{
	MinOptimisticTierFee: s.minOptimisticTierFee.Uint64(),
	MinSgxTierFee: s.minSgxTierFee.Uint64(),
	MinSgxAndZkVMTierFee: s.minSgxAndZkVMTierFee.Uint64(),
	MaxExpiry: uint64(s.maxExpiry.Seconds()),
	Prover: s.proverAddress.Hex(),
	})
	}

) but something goes wrong and it errors runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer deference (see image)

So this issue should remain open
