Along with my recent OS upgrade I have also updated my tor relay from0.2.4.3-alpha to 0.2.4.20. The latter version write two identical copies of every message to the log file. I have only one uncommented "Log " line in my torrc, which is
Log notice file /var/log/tor/notices.log
but every single message is getting written to the file twice.
Which package did you install? If it was the deb, look at /usr/share/tor/tor-service-defaults-torrc (these are the default defaults, if you will).
I'm guessing FreeBSD in which case the culprit is probably the rc script which enables notice logging by default:
fk@r500 ~ $grep Log /usr/jails/tor-jail/usr/local/etc/rc.d/tor command_args="-f ${tor_conf} --PidFile ${tor_pidfile} --RunAsDaemon 1 --DataDirectory ${tor_datadir} --+Log ${tor_loglevel}\ file\ ${tor_logfile}"
