Comment:

 I'm calling this issue medium-badness, low risk, and tested-enough.
 Backporting to 0.2.9 and forward.

Comment (by nickm):

 This patch seems to have caused a signed/unsigned comparison warning on
 FreeBSD:
 {{{
 21:15:20 ../tor/src/common/compat.c:1750:23: error: comparison of integers
 of different signs: 'uint64_t' (aka 'unsigned long') and 'rlim_t' (aka
 'long') [-Werror,-Wsign-compare]
 21:15:20   rlim.rlim_cur = MIN(try_limit, rlim.rlim_cur);
 21:15:20   ^   ~  ~
 21:15:20 /usr/include/sys/param.h:299:23: note: expanded from macro 'MIN'
 21:15:20 #define MIN(a,b) (((a)<(b))?(a):(b))
 21:15:20   ^
 }}}

 I've added a new commit to the `bug21074_029` branch to fix this, and
 merged the branch to master again.

Comment (by arma):

 Neat. Sounds like Tor Browser will either want to take this patch on its
 own, or get the patch backported to whichever version of Tor it ships.

Comment:

 I've tried to take the minimalist approach for a patch here, and made
 setrlimit() failures nonfatal.  See my branch `bug21074_029`.

 Calling launchctl to set the file limit per-user is the wrong way for
 JBridgeM to make this change. It should either:
 * create a separate user and set the limit on that user, or
 * set the limit on its own process, rather than all processes run by the
 user.

 But as far as Tor is concerned, this is something that will come up in
 some users' configurations, so we should make the setrlimit call non-
 fatal, and test using the same commands as:

 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/24764#comment:21

 to make sure we have caught all the possible failure modes.

 This user noticed something that may be the cause of the bug.

 And raising file descriptors using sudo fixes it in some cases.

 So yes, I think we should presume that some configurations cause setrlimit
 to fail, and change tor to make setrlimit failures non-fatal.

Comment:

 Most odd.  I still can't reproduce this. I wonder what the difference is
 between this user's Sierra and mine?

 One possibility here is to simply treat setrlimit() failures as non-fatal.

Comment:

 Okay; it looks like the underlying issue was indeed probably #22797.
 Please  re-open if this bug appears in 0.2.9.12, 0.3.0.11, 0.3.1.7-??,
 0.3.2.1-alpha, or later.

 Temp fix for the issue:



 {{{
 sudo launchctl limit maxfiles 1 1
 }}}
 Need to check if this fix is long-term.

Comment (by fink):

 Hey. Just found this thread as I have same problems on Sierra (10.12.5)
 and... funny, I've just replaced Ableton Live 32-bit with 64-bit.
 A few things to note:

  * with the 32-bit Live installed, tor was working just fine
  * 64-bit version is the same build number as the 32-bit one
  * I can't test ulimit before Ableton Live

 Still, the current output (run as a non-root user) is the same with and
 w/o Ableton Live installed:

 {{{
 a-air:~ a$ ulimit -n -S
 8192
 a-air:~ a$ ulimit -S -n 10240
 -bash: ulimit: open files: cannot modify limit: Invalid argument
 a-air:~ a$ ulimit -n -S
 8192
 a-air:~ a$ ulimit -n -H
 unlimited
 }}}
 And hence, tor still doesn't work with Live uninstalled.

 Hope it helps somehow...

Comment:

 Thanks for letting us know this is still happening.
 I made #22797 to fix a bug in this code, but it probably won't fix this
 issue.

 We still need more information.
 If you have this issue:
 * do you have Ableton Live installed?
 * what do you see when you open Terminal.app and type:
 {{{
 ulimit -n -S
 ulimit -S -n 10240
 ulimit -n -S
 ulimit -n -H
 }}}
   For example, I see:
 {{{
 base:~ dev$ ulimit -n -S
 256
 base:~ dev$ ulimit -S -n 10240
 base:~ dev$ ulimit -n -S
 10240
 base:~ dev$ ulimit -n -H
 unlimited
 }}}
 * what happens if you create another user?
   * does Tor work for that user?
   * what do you get from the Terminal commands above for that user?

 This seems to be an issue with Ableton Live:
 * does tor work if you quit Ableton Live?
 * does tor work if you uninstall Ableton Live?
 * what do you get from the Terminal commands above:
   * before you have ever installed Ableton Live?
   * after you install Ableton Live?
   * after you uninstall Ableton Live?

Comment (by ugyballoons):

 Same issue here- have also just installed 32bit version of Ableton Live 9.

 Tor now exits with error as above.
 Using previous OS X version, however- 10.11.6

 Is this still a common issue or has it been opened and filleted on another
 ticket?

 I can report the same problem

 OSX Sierra, Darwin MacBook-Pro.local 16.5.0 Darwin Kernel Version 16.5.0:
 Fri Mar  3 16:52:33 PST 2017; root:xnu-3789.51.2~3/RELEASE_X86_64 x86_64

 Was working fine, I have no idea this seems to have happened after I
 installed Ableton Live at some point although I am unable to clarify this.

 Ah ha. Sorry for the noise. It sounds like the person above on 10.8 is
 going to be screwed soon, but "Sierra" is 10.12 and thus still supported.
 Carry on.

Comment (by loopuz):

 hello I have exactly the same problem and i am under OS X 10.8.5 Mountain
 Lions

 I have tried different version of tor from 6.0.7 til the latest 6.5.1
 Something changed in my configuration but i dont know what .

 if i boot my macbook  from an old backup disk (from december 2016 tor
 6.0.7) everything works  fine... i tried to copy the same application from
 the backup to my actual mac  (that is "org.mozilla.tor browser.plist" file
 , the folders "org.mozilla.tor browser" and "tor browser data" and
 !TorBrowser.app obviously) but i still get the same error!

 if i run sudo /Applications/!TorBrowser.app/TorBrowser/Tor/tor.real

 i get

 Does the error happen if you start tor outside of Tor Browser:
 {{{
 /path/to/tor ORPort 0
 }}}

 It would be helpful to have info-level logs.
 To log at info level, start tor like this:
 {{{
 /path/to/tor ORPort 0 Log "info stderr"
 }}}
 Or, if the error only happens in Tor Browser, add this line to the default
 torrc:
 {{{
 Log info stderr
 }}}

 Receiving this error on Sierra with default torrc in Tor 0.2.9.9 / Tor
 Browser 6.5. Have also tried other versions of Tor Browser (6.0 & 7.0a1)
 which still produce the error.

 The only solution is to run tor under sudo.

 I don't know much about debugging tor, would be happy to provide more

Comment:

 I have a Sierra install, and so does at least one other core tor
 developer.

 For what it's worth, I don't see this error with the default torrc in Tor
 Browser 6.0.8 / Tor 0.2.8.11 (git-31e7b47fbebe8caf).

 Do they need to set a particular ConnLimit value to trigger it?

Comment (by arma):

 Do we have any OS X Sierra users who can confirm this, and/or try a patch
 if somebody wrote one?

 It looks like this ticket ended up in 0.2.9.x rather than 0.3.0.x, which
 means everybody who is working on making 0.3.0 go stable will ignore it.
 Maybe we should move it to 0.3.0.x then? :)

 See also #16274 which looks related but not the same.

 User reported on Tor Stack Exchange that Tor Browser under their Sierra
 install was failing.

 It seems to be caused by a failed call to "setrlimit"

 Note that the user *was* using the alpha but also gets the same result
 using the stable 6.0.8 release.

 I also noted that there have been issues with OSX and setrlimit before:

 {{{
   /* On some platforms, OPEN_MAX is the real limit, and getrlimit() is
* full of nasty lies.  I'm looking at you, OSX 10.5 */
 }}}

 The original stack exchange ticket can be seen here:
 https://tor.stackexchange.com/questions/13466/tor-unexpectedly-exited-
 cant-launch-tor-browser-at-all-anymore-for-no-
 apparent?noredirect=1#comment14480_13466

 I'm willing to ask the user for more information if required and a
 stackexchange login with 50+ rep isn't available.
