After full restart of the stack and now I noticed these errors in the log.

I have a system that I only use to check my cold wallet. This is not my normal full node. upnp is turned off and it has worked fine for months. Today, I go to it and it won’t open. The software comes up and shows my key. But when I click on the key, the circle comes up (showing it is thinking) and then goes back to the screen with the key. When I look in the log, The error mentioned above is in the log. I have rebooted twice and tried to click the key countless times. No luck. Any advice?
Ok, here is the oddest thing. I clicked on that key button for almost an hour and a half. Rebooted twice during that time. It would not open (for every attempt, I would get the “Error short batch syncing” message in the log) . I was getting to the point that I was going to uninstall and reinstall. So I wanted to make sure I had my phrase. I clicked on the little eye icon to compare with what I have documented and it all checked out. Closed the window that showed the phrase. But, before I shut it down to reload, I clicked the key one more time. It opened. Immediately. So, if anyone runs into this issue, click the eye, then try again. Stupid software.
