#23347: Switching from direct connection to a pluggable transport is not working anymore with tor on master ------------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: gk | Owner: (none) Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Medium | Milestone: Tor: 0.3.2.x-final Component: Core Tor/Tor | Version: Severity: Normal | Keywords: Actual Points: | Parent ID: Points: | Reviewer: Sponsor: | ------------------------------+-------------------------------- Trying to switch from a direct connection to using a bridge is not working anymore with tor on `master` (found while using commit f2f1cab2b3c6a56f93862c424663f083b79c7bc3) on my Linux box.
Steps to reproduce: 1) Take a recent Tor Browser (e.g. an alpha version) 2) Make sure you replace `tor` shipped in your Tor Browser instance with one compiled from a recent master commit 3) Start Tor Browser and choose direct connection 4) Shut Tor Browser down after you got greeted with the `about:tor` page 5) Restart Tor Browser and press the "Open Settings" button before the bootstrapping is finished 6) Select e.g. the recommended `obfs4` default bridge option 7) The start-up stalls (I quit Tor Browser after 5 minutes waiting) The first bad commit is c21cfd28f43a969229ede02e20c6b554c1b88aae which fixed #17750. Without that one Tor Browser resumes bootstrapping after a couple of seconds and is using an `obfs4` bridge. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/23347> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
