Newb question. I have just started running btcsuite/btcd. After spending a couple days initializing the blockchain it no longer appears to be writing new blocks. btcctl getblockcount reports 828835 which today (2024-02-05) is about 36 hours behind.
The logs seem to show valid activity

Checking the database file directory reveals the issue as well:

Anyone know what might be causing this? Is my server off on some dead-end fork? Can I roll the chain back to the “last good block?”
