[tor-relays] Relay JPsi2 not getting into consensus anymore

Hi all,

some weeks ago, my relay JPsi2
(F6EC46933CE8D4FAD5CCDAA8B1C5A377685FC521) started experiencing moderate
stability problems. It would freeze after a few hours or days. The
provider said it was due to Spectre mitigations and the only way for me
to fix this would be to switch to a newer (more expensive) plan...

Some time later I did so and reinstalled it with Ubuntu 18.04 and placed
the old keys into the new installation. It seems they are now expected
to be in /var/lib/tor/.tor/keys, as opposed to /var/lib/tor/keys as I
was used to in Ubuntu 16.04.

However, it does not seem to be making it into the consensus anymore.
Only the authority nodes moria1, dizum, and longclaw vote for Running.
The others don't.

So far I haven't been able to figure out the reason for that, so any
help is appreciated.

Here is part of the output of journalctl -u tor and the torrc file:
