System version: amd64/linux
Golang version: go1.22.5

Details

• Running a rollup node with rollkit utilising local light node and local/public RPC
• Due to some reason the blob submission fails with context deadline exceeded: DA layer submission failed error="failed to submit blocks: RPC client error: sendRequest failed: Post \"http://localhost:56658/\": context deadline exceeded" attempt=0 module=BlockManager
• On the next try, the rollup node increments the sequence without verifying if the previous blob tx was submitted or not Account sequence increments even when the blob is not submitted successfully rollkit/rollkit#1787
• If there are retries, the gap between actual and expected account sequence starts increasing (Sometimes the gap becomes as high as 30 sequences)

Troubleshooting

• Restarting rollup node daemon
• Restarting light node
• Restarting/Changing local/public RPC
• Resyncing light node
• Resyncing RPC

... doesn't fix it

Resolution

To resolve the issue, the account sequence has to be manually adjusted to cover the gap between actual and expected values. For that, we have to use celeastia-appd for posting blobs with manual account sequence as it's not possible with celestia-node. Also, to do it through celestia-appd, one has to either sync and run an RPC node or cycle over public RPC nodes and be lucky enough to land on one with a clean mempool.

In such a case, it'd be really helpful to have a feature thats allows the user to set the account sequence while posting blobs through a light node.
