Always Backup before Restarting the Steemd

Today, I was told that my RPC node https://api.justyy.com does not enable tags_api:

{"jsonrpc":"2.0","error":{"code":-32003,"message":"Assert Exception:_tags_api: tags_api_plugin not enabled.","data":{"code":10,"name":"assert_exception","message":"Assert Exception","stack":[{"context":{"level":"error","file":"condenser_api.cpp","line":1429,"method":"get_discussions_by_created","hostname":"","timestamp":"2020-06-17T13:42:21"},"format":"_tags_api: tags_api_plugin not enabled.","data":{}}]}},"id":6}

I was trying to enable it in the config.ini and I restart the steemd.

It didn't work...

I had to take it off, and restart the steemd. However, it won't let me start and keep hanging at a block - unable to push to the chain...

I have to restore the snapshot that was taken 2 weeks ago - and replay (should take a good few hours).

Meanwhile - I have to redirect the traffic to https://api.steemit.com to avoid breaking existing applications.

One important advice: always backup the files before trying new things.

Every little helps! I hope this helps!

Steem On!~
