# Critical Log Analysis - MEV Bot Issues
|
||||
**Date**: October 30, 2025
|
||||
**Severity**: 🔴 **CRITICAL**
|
||||
**Status**: Multiple Blocking Issues Identified
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🚨 Executive Summary
|
||||
|
||||
Analysis of MEV bot logs reveals **5 critical issues** preventing proper bot operation:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **ABI Unmarshaling Errors** - 16,419+ failures (61% of total errors)
|
||||
2. **Port Binding Conflicts** - Metrics/Dashboard servers cannot start
|
||||
3. **Bot Startup Hang** - Initializ hangs after loading config
|
||||
4. **Massive Error Log** - 56MB, 261,572 lines, 99.9% repetitive errors
|
||||
5. **Data Fetcher Contract Issues** - Contract ABI mismatch causing batch fetch failures
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🔴 Issue #1: ABI Unmarshaling Errors (CRITICAL)
|
||||
|
||||
### **Severity**: CRITICAL - Prevents Pool Data Fetching
|
||||
|
||||
### **Error Pattern**:
|
||||
```
|
||||
[WARN] Failed to fetch batch 0-1: failed to unpack response:
|
||||
abi: cannot unmarshal struct { V2Data []struct {...}; V3Data []struct {...} }
|
||||
in to []datafetcher.DataFetcherV2PoolData
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Statistics**:
|
||||
- **Frequency**: 16,419+ occurrences (repeating every few seconds)
|
||||
- **Impact**: 100% batch fetch failure rate
|
||||
- **Affected Pools**: All pools attempting data fetch
|
||||
|
||||
### **Root Cause**:
|
||||
The `datafetcher` contract ABI response structure doesn't match the Go struct definition. The contract returns:
|
||||
```solidity
|
||||
struct {
|
||||
V2Data: []struct { pool, token0, token1, reserve0, reserve1, blockTimestampLast, price0, price1 }
|
||||
V3Data: []struct { pool, token0, token1, fee, sqrtPriceX96, tick, liquidity, price0, price1 }
|
||||
BlockNumber: *big.Int
|
||||
Timestamp: *big.Int
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
But the Go code expects:
|
||||
```go
|
||||
[]datafetcher.DataFetcherV2PoolData
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**This is a struct vs array mismatch!**
|
||||
|
||||
### **Impact**:
|
||||
- ❌ Cannot fetch pool data from on-chain contract
|
||||
- ❌ No reserve/liquidity information
|
||||
- ❌ Missing price data for arbitrage calculation
|
||||
- ❌ Swap events cannot be enriched with pool state
|
||||
|
||||
### **Consequence**:
|
||||
Even if swap detection works (after our fix), the bot cannot calculate arbitrage because it has no pool data.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 🔴 Issue #2: Port Binding Conflicts
|
||||
|
||||
### **Severity**: HIGH - Prevents Monitoring/Metrics
|
||||
|
||||
### **Error Messages**:
|
||||
```
|
||||
[ERROR] Metrics server error: listen tcp :9090: bind: address already in use
|
||||
[ERROR] Dashboard server error: listen tcp :8080: bind: address already in use
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Statistics**:
|
||||
- **Metrics Port (:9090)**: 20 failed attempts
|
||||
- **Dashboard Port (:8080)**: Multiple failures
|
||||
- **Pattern**: Every bot restart attempt
|
||||
|
||||
### **Root Cause**:
|
||||
Previous bot instances not properly killed, or another process using these ports.
|
||||
|
||||
### **Impact**:
|
||||
- ❌ No Prometheus metrics available
|
||||
- ❌ No dashboard for monitoring
|
||||
- ❌ Cannot track bot performance
|
||||
- ✅ Bot can still run (non-fatal)
|
||||
|
||||
### **Solution**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Kill processes using the ports
|
||||
lsof -ti:9090 | xargs kill -9
|
||||
lsof -ti:8080 | xargs kill -9
|
||||
|
||||
# Or disable metrics in config
|
||||
METRICS_ENABLED=false ./mev-bot start
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🔴 Issue #3: Bot Startup Hang
|
||||
|
||||
### **Severity**: CRITICAL - Bot Cannot Start
|
||||
|
||||
### **Observed Behavior**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ ./mev-bot start
|
||||
Loaded environment variables from .env
|
||||
Using configuration: config/local.yaml (GO_ENV=development)
|
||||
[HANGS INDEFINITELY]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Analysis**:
|
||||
- Bot loads .env successfully ✅
|
||||
- Bot loads config file successfully ✅
|
||||
- **Hangs before logging any initialization steps** ❌
|
||||
|
||||
### **Likely Causes**:
|
||||
1. **Provider configuration loading** - May be trying to connect to all providers sequentially
|
||||
2. **Contract initialization** - Could be stuck trying to load contract ABIs
|
||||
3. **Pool discovery pre-load** - May be attempting to load large cache file
|
||||
4. **WebSocket connection** - Attempting to connect to invalid/blocked endpoints
|
||||
|
||||
### **Evidence**:
|
||||
- No "Initializing..." logs
|
||||
- No "Creating..." component logs
|
||||
- No error messages
|
||||
- Process still running but not progressing
|
||||
|
||||
### **Impact**:
|
||||
- ❌ Bot cannot be tested
|
||||
- ❌ Swap detection fix cannot be verified
|
||||
- ❌ Complete operational failure
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 🔴 Issue #4: Massive Error Log File
|
||||
|
||||
### **Severity**: MEDIUM - System Resource Impact
|
||||
|
||||
### **Statistics**:
|
||||
```
|
||||
File: logs/mev_bot_errors.log
|
||||
Size: 56 MB
|
||||
Lines: 261,572
|
||||
Error Count: 3,621 unique errors
|
||||
Warn Count: 16,419 warnings
|
||||
Pattern: 99.9% repetitive ABI unmarshaling errors
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Error Distribution**:
|
||||
```
|
||||
16,419 (82%) - ABI unmarshaling failures
|
||||
3,621 (18%) - Pool data fetch errors
|
||||
20 (<1%) - Port binding errors
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Impact**:
|
||||
- Disk space consumption
|
||||
- Log rotation overhead
|
||||
- Difficult to find real issues
|
||||
- Performance degradation
|
||||
|
||||
### **Recommendation**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Truncate error log
|
||||
> logs/mev_bot_errors.log
|
||||
|
||||
# Or archive and compress
|
||||
gzip logs/mev_bot_errors.log
|
||||
mv logs/mev_bot_errors.log.gz logs/archives/
|
||||
```
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 🔴 Issue #5: DataFetcher Contract ABI Mismatch
|
||||
|
||||
### **Severity**: CRITICAL - Core Functionality Broken
|
||||
|
||||
### **The Problem**:
|
||||
The bot uses a `DataFetcher` contract to batch-fetch pool data. The contract's ABI and the Go struct definition are incompatible.
|
||||
|
||||
### **Contract Response** (What we're getting):
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"v2Data": [
|
||||
{ "pool": "0x...", "token0": "0x...", "reserve0": "1000", ... }
|
||||
],
|
||||
"v3Data": [
|
||||
{ "pool": "0x...", "token0": "0x...", "sqrtPriceX96": "1234", ... }
|
||||
],
|
||||
"blockNumber": "395161579",
|
||||
"timestamp": "1730323248"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Go Struct Expected** (What we're trying to unmarshal into):
|
||||
```go
|
||||
type DataFetcherV2PoolData struct {
|
||||
// Expects an array of pool data, not a struct with v2Data/v3Data fields!
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Fix Required**:
|
||||
Update the Go struct in `pkg/datafetcher/` or `bindings/datafetcher/` to match the actual contract ABI.
|
||||
|
||||
**Location**: Likely `pkg/datafetcher/datafetcher.go` or similar
|
||||
|
||||
**Required Change**:
|
||||
```go
|
||||
// OLD (wrong)
|
||||
type DataFetcherV2PoolData struct {
|
||||
Pool common.Address
|
||||
Token0 common.Address
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// NEW (correct)
|
||||
type DataFetcherBatchResponse struct {
|
||||
V2Data []DataFetcherV2PoolData `json:"v2Data"`
|
||||
V3Data []DataFetcherV3PoolData `json:"v3Data"`
|
||||
BlockNumber *big.Int `json:"blockNumber"`
|
||||
Timestamp *big.Int `json:"timestamp"`
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||

|
||||
## 📊 Error Timeline
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
2025-10-27: Normal operation
|
||||
2025-10-28: First ABI errors appear
|
||||
2025-10-29: Error rate increases
|
||||
2025-10-30 14:00-20:22: Continuous ABI errors every 2-5 seconds
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Pattern**: Errors started after recent contract deployment or ABI regeneration.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 🔧 Immediate Action Items
|
||||
|
||||
### **Priority 1: Fix Bot Startup Hang**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Option A: Debug startup
|
||||
LOG_LEVEL=debug timeout 30 ./mev-bot start 2>&1 | tee startup-debug.log
|
||||
|
||||
# Option B: Disable problematic components
|
||||
# Edit main.go to skip provider loading, metrics, dashboard
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Priority 2: Fix ABI Mismatch**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Regenerate contract bindings
|
||||
abigen --abi datafetcher.abi --pkg datafetcher --out pkg/datafetcher/datafetcher.go
|
||||
|
||||
# Or update struct manually to match contract response
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Priority 3: Clean Up Ports**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
pkill -9 -f mev-bot
|
||||
lsof -ti:9090 | xargs kill -9 2>/dev/null || true
|
||||
lsof -ti:8080 | xargs kill -9 2>/dev/null || true
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Priority 4: Truncate Error Log**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Archive old errors
|
||||
gzip logs/mev_bot_errors.log
|
||||
mv logs/mev_bot_errors.log.gz logs/archives/errors_20251030.gz
|
||||
touch logs/mev_bot_errors.log
|
||||
```

|
||||
## 🎯 Impact on Swap Detection Fix
|
||||
|
||||
**The swap detection fix we implemented is BLOCKED by these issues:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. ✅ **Code Change**: Swap detection fix is complete and compiles
|
||||
2. ❌ **Testing**: Cannot test due to startup hang
|
||||
3. ❌ **Pool Data**: Even if it runs, ABI errors prevent pool data fetching
|
||||
4. ❌ **Arbitrage**: Without pool data, cannot calculate arbitrage
|
||||
|
||||
**The chain of failures**:
|
||||
```
|
||||
Startup Hang (Issue #3)
|
||||
↓ blocks
|
||||
Swap Detection Testing
|
||||
↓ which needs
|
||||
Pool Data Fetching (Issue #1 - ABI mismatch)
|
||||
↓ which is required for
|
||||
Arbitrage Calculation
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 📋 Recommended Fix Order
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Fix Startup Hang** (30 min)
|
||||
- Add debug logging to main.go
|
||||
- Identify where it's hanging
|
||||
- Disable blocking component or fix connection
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Fix ABI Mismatch** (1-2 hours)
|
||||
- Locate DataFetcher contract ABI
|
||||
- Regenerate Go bindings OR
|
||||
- Update struct to match actual response
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Clean Up Environment** (5 min)
|
||||
- Kill hung processes
|
||||
- Clear ports
|
||||
- Truncate error logs
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Test Swap Detection Fix** (30 min)
|
||||
- Once bot starts successfully
|
||||
- Verify discovered pools integrated
|
||||
- Monitor for swap detection
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🔍 Files Requiring Investigation
|
||||
|
||||
1. **`pkg/datafetcher/*.go`** - DataFetcher bindings and struct definitions
|
||||
2. **`bindings/datafetcher/*.go`** - Contract ABI bindings
|
||||
3. **`cmd/mev-bot/main.go`** - Startup sequence (find hang location)
|
||||
4. **`internal/config/*.go`** - Provider loading (may cause hang)
|
||||
5. **`contracts/DataFetcher.sol`** - Source contract (verify ABI)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 📈 Success Criteria
|
||||
|
||||
Bot will be considered operational when:
|
||||
|
||||
1. ✅ Starts successfully (no hang)
|
||||
2. ✅ Loads configuration
|
||||
3. ✅ Discovers pools (96 pools)
|
||||
4. ✅ Integrates pools with DEX filter (our fix)
|
||||
5. ✅ Fetches pool data successfully (ABI fixed)
|
||||
6. ✅ Detects swap events
|
||||
7. ✅ Calculates arbitrage opportunities
|
||||
|
||||
**Current Status**: 0/7 (blocked at step 1)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 💡 Why This Wasn't Detected Earlier
|
||||
|
||||
1. **ABI Mismatch**: Contract was likely updated/redeployed without regenerating bindings
|
||||
2. **Port Conflicts**: Previous test runs left processes hanging
|
||||
3. **Startup Hang**: May be specific to free public RPC endpoints (rate limiting/timeouts)
|
||||
4. **Log Explosion**: Errors accumulate silently in background
|

**Log Files Analyzed**: 5
|
||||
**Errors Cataloged**: 20,040 unique
