Cannot bake any block anymore. Endorsing is fine

Question

My baker suddenly started to fail injecting every block I bake. I have now missed all the baking slots for a few cycles. It does not seem to be related to the node, since I can endorse blocks perfectly. I have rebuilt the whole node and database. I have restarted everything. Reinstalled the ledger baking app, which I am using, just in case, but the problem persists.

The baker log on failing blocks shows:

which seems pretty much opaque and useless.

Can you try to remove the file block located in the .tezos-client folder ? The logs seems to say that the file is corrupted. — vect0r, Dec 21 '19 at 12:12

Opaque yes but useless no: could not read the block alias file tells you that the problem is with your file ~/.tezos-client/blocks (this is the file were is stored the level of the last block baked. It is used as a hight watermark to limit the risk of double baking.)

Deleting it should solve your problem.
