-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Dear Tor Developers,
According to the Tor manual: https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-manual-dev.html.en > DisableNetwork 0|1 When this option is set, we don’t listen for or > accept any connections other than controller connections, and we > close (and don’t reattempt) any outbound connections. Controllers > sometimes use this option to avoid using the network until Tor is > fully configured. (Default: 0) However, it seems when DisableNetwork is set to 1, /var/run/tor/control does not exist anymore making us cannot get a controller from socket file. (stem.control.Controller.from_socket_file() is affected in this case: https://stem.torproject.org/api/control.html#stem.control.Controller.fro m_socket_file) To reproduce this, I tested both Tor 0.3.1.9 and 0.3.2.9 on Debian Stretch: When DisableNetwork 0, run: systemctl --no-pager restart tor@default > user@host:~$ ls -l /var/run/tor/ total 1328 srw-rw---- 1 debian-tor > debian-tor 0 Jan 19 21:14 control -rw-r----- 1 debian-tor > debian-tor 32 Jan 19 21:14 control.authcookie -rw-r----- 1 > debian-tor debian-tor 1350116 Jan 19 21:14 log srw-rw-rw- 1 > debian-tor debian-tor 0 Jan 19 21:14 socks -rw-r--r-- 1 > debian-tor debian-tor 6 Jan 19 21:14 tor.pid When DisableNetwork 1, run: systemctl --no-pager restart tor@default > user@host:~$ ls -l /var/run/tor/ total 1244 -rw-r----- 1 debian-tor > debian-tor 32 Jan 19 21:00 control.authcookie -rw-r----- 1 > debian-tor debian-tor 1269005 Jan 19 21:00 log I searched on Tor-trac but did not find any similar report. Therefore, would you please tell me wether Tor intentionally behaves like this or this is a bug? (If this is a bug, I can definitely help to report it to Tor-trac.) Thank you so much!
