Failing to setup the beacon-kit and reth

[maheshtechpartner]

Hello,

I have setup the beacon-kit and reth.

Beacond version: v0.7.0

Reth version: 1.0.3

When I start the beacon service, I get the log 'execution client is not running.' When I start the execution client (Reth), I get an error on the beacon service, as shown below:

I’m also getting an error with the Reth client:

Can anyone help me resolve this issue with a solution or suggestion that I can apply to my node?

I have the same problem. How do I solve this?

Hello @maheshtechpartner,
lately we did add some checks around the genesis state to make sure that the Deposit contract is duly initiated with the deposits in genesis.
I can run make start and make start-reth without issue in the current main (commit 2afec05).

Is there any reason why you need to run 0.7.0?
