https://pastebin.com/ZsQArYRyI am a noob trying to get into blockchain development. I have been running my own node for a few weeks with no problem. I shut down bitcoind at the end of each day, I only use it to practice. I have a SSD boot and a HDD storage drive with 750GB.
Yesterday I started to have problems with starting bitcoind and had to -reindex. I stopped bitcoind and got home today to restart it once again and yet again had to -reindex. I have NO idea why and quite frankly there have been absolutly no helpful tips on the internet regarding this. i hope someone here can help me. I have the entire blockchain on my HDD but I cannot even start bitcoind anymore. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
