Help with Node "Staking Rewards Not Eligible"

Hello,

I used apt package manager to install the Algorand Node on an Ubuntu Server. I set it up with A Wallet and added 30k Algorand to the wallet.
I set up the participation key and registered it.

$ goal account listpartkeys -d /var/lib/algorand
Registered Account ParticipationID Last Used First round Last round
yes TX42…P3U YVSMLR62… 46825869 45345165 48345165
I have a balance in the wallet
$ goal account balance -a TX42 -d /var/lib/algorand
30018576012 microAlgos
I did the goal clerk sign

but I still show
“Staking Rewards Not Eligible” on Allo Explorer

What am I missing?

Allo Explorer shows
Total Balance over 30k
28 Blocks created
6961 Blocks cleared
Status Online
Eligible Stake Account Yes
Incentive Fees Paid No
“Staking Rewards Not Eligible”

Do I need to pay the fees? How do I pay them?

Thank you

When you prepare the key registration transaction, it needs a 2 Algo fee on it to set your account as eligible for staking rewards.

I did that initially, do I have to do it again now that I updated to v4?
Is there a command to do that from the command line?
Thank you

you have to do it again if you did it before the staking came in place i believe
