I ran tor.exe via CMD (Windows version of terminal). I wrote this to the torrc: SOCKSPort 0 # no local SOCKS proxy ORPort 80 # public bridge must have an open ORPort ExtORPort auto # configure ExtORPort for obfs4proxy ExitPolicy reject *:* # no exits allowed BridgeRelay 1 # relay won't show up in the public consensus PublishServerDescriptor 1 # publish to the bridge authority # use obfs4proxy to provide obfs4 on port 9003, 443 ServerTransportPlugin obfs4 exec C:\Users\keife\Desktop\TotBrowser\Browser\TorBrowser\Tor\PluggableTransports\obfs4proxy.exe ServerTransportListenAddr obfs4 127.0.0.1:8080 ContactInfo [email protected] Then did tor.exe -f torrc.txt (including the file directories and all) and it worked, tor launched and red the configuration file, but when using the built in torrc file, this in turn caused tor browser to crash on start, see the screenshot: However, when I created my own torrc.txt file then started from there, it worked, and tor browser also did not crash on start: Though it did get stuck on loading (probably due to the tor process already being in use in all). This is problem attic is what I am trying to do is have tor browser start, automatically installing updates (thus automatically updating tor and obfs4 as a result) then start the bridge). I guess I would want to have a torrc that could not be overwritten anyway, but having tor browser and tor running via terminal seemed to cause issues. Is there a way to configure tor browser to automatically install updates on start? If so, I could write a script to start tor browser, close it after a few minutes then start the relay when windows loads possibly. Sending screenshots so you can see when tor browser crashes and does not crash. Thank you. --Keifer On Mon, Mar 30, 2020 at 2:24 AM teor <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > On 30 Mar 2020, at 18:11, Keifer Bly <[email protected]> wrote: > > The file directoy is named “totbrowser” where tor browser is installed. > Thank you. > > > > Sent from Mail <https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986> for > Windows 10 > > > > *From: *Keifer Bly <[email protected]> > *Sent: *Monday, March 30, 2020 1:10 AM > *To: *[email protected] <[email protected]> > *Subject: *RE: Re: [tor-relays] Possible to run a tor bridge/relay via > tor browser? > > > > So, I edited the tor install directory so there are no spaces in it, then > tried no quotes, single quotes, and double quotes, and it still crashers on > start.
