Bug Details & Steps to Reproduce
For unkown reasons LND sometimes does not have the channel policies for local channels available. It is very rare but it happens and the latest user running into this problem was on postgres sql.
The result is, that these channels cannot be used for sending or forwarding payments because we always evaluate the graph and the policy data whether we allow forwarding/sending this HTLC.
The current workaround for fixing such behavior is to recreate the edge via by creating a new channelUpdate:
lncli updatechanpolicy --create_missing_edge
