Bug#350192: tor installation does not create toruser on system
I am also finding that tor does not seem to be creating a pid file. Perhaps this is due to the --chuid?

So all your changes (including removing) are preserved over upgrades and remove/install cycles. If you want to remove all traces of Tor from your system you need to purge it (which will also remove your /var/lib/tor and all). Then installing it again will create the conffiles again. > Have you tried installing the package personally and trying to run tor as a > daemon. Yes. More than once.

Bug#350192: tor installation does not create toruser on system
Sorry, i cannot copy and paste the results. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling tor and now it appears to create the user but I cannot confirm the /etc/init.d/tor file since it uses the old one. I tried to delete the old one and then reinstall but then I did not have any /etc/init.d/tor script at all. Have you tried installing the package personally and trying to run tor as a daemon.

The package installs fine. It gives no output about creating the toruser UID when it installs. The problem occurs when trying to start Tot as a daemon On line 75 in /etc/init.d/tor --chuid toruser:toruser \ this user does not exist and tor will not run until either this user is created or the username on this line is changed to a valid one.

What does it say, exactly. Please paste the entire output of a dpkg -i tor...deb.

Package: tor Version: 0.1.0.16-1 when tor is installed the installation does not create the toruser on the system. This causes tor to fail to run until the start script in /etc/init.d has been edited or the toruser has been created. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
