Bitcoin Node does not start

I have this same issue and the above did not fix the issue. When I entered the above commands it said that these files did not exist. I navigated to the file location and found that I had all the directories in the path ./umbrel/app-data/bitcoin/data/ from there I was missing bitcoin/settings and bitcoin/peers and any other files.

Additional background is I had some malware that was detected from malicious domains my Umbrel was trying to reach (not sure if these were just tor domains). so I formatted the SD and did a fresh install of the Umbrel app. Then rebooted the raspberry pi. Since then I’ve been able to access the menus, settings install and delete apps, but when I ssh into the Umbrel to get logs it says error no bitcoin service is running.

ERROR: No such service: bitcoin

I’ve rebooted and tried a number of different things from the troubleshooting guide. I’ve also checked the RAM in the settings gui and can see the bitcoin “app”/service is running and using about 243mb of memory.
