Node starts cleanly but never connects to bootstrap peers (peer count stays at 0) #2

Description

Spun up a node on a public VPS — starts cleanly, HTTP /health is reachable from the internet, all good there. But the libp2p side seems quiet:

  • GET /api/v1/peers returns {"count":0,"peers":[]} indefinitely
  • At startup I get one kademlia put_record failed (QuorumFailed) warning, then no peer / DHT / gossipsub activity in the logs at all

Configured the three official nodes as bootstrap peers:
GITLAWB_BOOTSTRAP_PEERS=https://node.gitlawb.com,https://node2.gitlawb.com,https://node3.gitlawb.com

Wondering if this is the right format — are those https:// HTTP URLs supposed to bootstrap libp2p too, or is there a separate env for libp2p multiaddrs? Also curious whether port 7546 on the official nodes is exposed publicly.

Running v0.3.8, federation-only (no PoS env set). Happy to share more logs if helpful.
