Federation / Following stuck in Pending after server reinstall

Because my first installation of Peertube had node core dump issues (running on OpenBSD), I decided to reinstall using a (supported) Debian VM. But I forgot to delete the Federation Follows from the first server before starting the second one.

So now, the Federation Follow requests are stucked in « Pending » state.

I have briefly restarted the old instance to delete the subscriptions. It seems the process as completed ok. Now this old instance is down. Only the new is on.

Still, I can’t subscribe to the initial instances I was looking for. I have tested new instances and subscription works ok.

Here’s a example of what the logs say:

Mar 06 20:08:50 peertube peertube[18548]:   ]
Mar 06 20:08:50 peertube peertube[18548]: }

I there a way to solve this?

Thanks.

Hi,

Please retry in 2 days where remote instance may refresh your PeerTube instance public keys (used to check your instance signature)

It worked. I had to delete the subscription, wait a few days and start a new subscription. Thanks!
