This was bug 691; it should be fixed in 0.2.1.9-alpha when it comes
out.

  https://bugs.torproject.org/flyspray/index.php?id=691&do=details

This is probably a good time for me to encourage people to use the
bugtracker at bugs.torproject.org to report and track bugs.  It lets
us do a better job of collecting and consolidating information about
each bug, and of making sure that nobody forgets about it until it
gets fixed.

These bugs are now fixed in svn trunk, I think.   The fixes should be
in 0.2.1.9-alpha, assuming that the fix was really a fix.

It's probably worth mentioning that this is a
relay server running on a GNU/Linux system.

Re: [Fwd: (Probably) a known problem?] - cant run a relay node

2008-12-03 Thread Przemyslaw Orzechowski
I was not online for fiew days but i think i might have a solution for
Your problem (worked for me)

1) in torrc add following line
ServerDNSResolvConfFile c:\resolv.conf

and inside of resolv.conf put following 3 lines

nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
nameserver yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy
search your.primary.domain

where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx and yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy are ip adresses of Your DNS servers
the third line is optional and is used to instruct linux computers for
what domain above DNS servers are authoritative (not sure if its
needed but i added it)

after those changes everything started to work (im not using vidalia
to run Tor i configured it as a service so its running whenewer my
mashine is up

Hope this will be helpfull for You

I erred.  I am no longer using 0.2.1.7.  I had to give up because I could not 
get it working properly.  Doing what I mention below allowed me to run tor via 
Vidalia but not via Tork (my preferred tor manager).  There was an issue with 
the config file that I could never figure out so I went back to a previous 
version of tor that worked (currently that is 0.2.0.31.

Don't think I will mess with 0.2.1.7 again.  Since you use Vidalia, you might 
manage to get it working more than temporarily.

While we're talking about DNS issues, I recently got:

Nov 30 06:25:02.803 [notice] Tor 0.2.1.6-alpha (r17011) opening new log file.
Nov 30 06:25:02.818 [warn] eventdns: Unable to add nameserver 164.148.169.81:

Nov 30 06:25:02.818 [warn] eventdns: Unable to add nameserver 34.148.169.81:

Nov 30 06:25:02.818 [warn] Unable to parse '/etc/resolv.conf', or no 
nameservers in '/etc/resolv.conf' (6)
Nov 30 06:25:02.819 [err] set_options(): Bug: Acting on config options left us 
in a broken state. Dying.

The nameservers were indeed unreachable at that time
(the traffic limit was reached and the system offline),
but earlier Tor versions continued to run and started
working again once the system was back on the net.

I had horrible troubles getting the latest tor 0.2.1.7 working after 
upgrading.  I use Tork, not Vidalia, but I suspect the problem is likely the 
same.

I deleted my existing tor directory (in linux, that is in /home//.tor - I have no idea if there is an equivalent windows setup to 
this - the directory that contains your tor configuration file) and started 
tor up again and it worked fine.  I then had to manually edit the config file 
to add my server name, contact info, etc.  Since then, it has worked.

Re: [Fwd: (Probably) a known problem?] - cant run a relay node

Thanks for the response. I understand. Below, you will find the copy of the
Vidalia generated torrc.

The problem is occurring on a system running MS Windows XP SP2.

Note that prior to the upgrade from 0.2.0.31 to 0.2.1.7 I had no problems. The
problems started occurring as soon as I started Tor again via Vidalia after the
upgrade. Also note that I do not have any problems running the Tor client.

Thanks

A few things,  you probably haven't received a response because no one
has a good idea how to fix it.  You may have 2 issues, one is that
libevent can't find nameservers, and the other is that the config
options are broken.

As for the dns issues:  

https://bugs.torproject.org/flyspray/index.php?do=details&id=813

or

https://bugs.torproject.org/flyspray/index.php?do=details&id=868

Are you running Windows?

For the config issues, which may be related to the dns issues, do you
have a copy of the torrc that's generated by Vidalia?

[Fwd: (Probably) a known problem?] - cant run a relay node

2008-12-03 Thread Alessandro Donnini
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hello,

A few days ago I posted the message below asking for help to resolve a problem
that prevents me from running a Tor relay node. I have not received any 
responses.

I would like to continue to run a Tor relay node but am unable to do so until I
resolve the problem described below, and I need help in order to do that.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks.

Alex Donnini
