Infura eth_call header not found bug in archive node

Bugs

It seems that some of the blocks in infura archive node are missing.
when i call this

{“jsonrpc”:“2.0”,“method”:“eth_call”,“params”: [{“to”: “0xd46e8dd67c5d32be8058bb8eb970870f07244567”,“data”: “0xd46e8dd67c5d32be8d46e8dd67c5d32be8058bb8eb970870f072445675058bb8eb970870f072445675”}, “0x7F1202”],“id”:2}

it returns

{
“jsonrpc”: “2.0”,
“id”: 2,
“error”: {
“code”: -32000,
“message”: “header not found”
}
}

0x7F1202 is 8000000 in decimal

The above error occurs in a specific block ranges such as (8000000 ~ 8500000).
It works well in other range of blocks.
Please check this. Thank you

Hi!
We experiencing exactly the same issue.
And we also see these errors for some blocks below 8000000

I’m getting the same error “Returned error: header not found” for any .call() with a blockNumber over websockets (archive add-on is on). If it helps, I’m calling with a n - 1 block number
