I am attempting to set up a TOR relay on my raspberry pi on my home network (nickname: relaydetour). I had it set up and running, but now it seems to be offline. I hadn't changed any settings, and it's still flagged as "running" and "valid". Is it functional? And is it more likely a problem with my configuration or something more problematic? Please let me know. Thank you.
Thanks for running a relay.
If you are referring to the flags on Tor Metrics' Relay Search, these are the flags that the relay had the last time it was seen in a consensus.
As relays that are not running do not appear in the consensus anymore, you will pretty much always see a "Running" flag there.
This will just be from the last time it was running and doesn't necessarily mean that it is running now.
The green/red online/offline indicator will tell you the *actual* state of the relay (although this is also up to 2 hours behind).
Thanks, Iain.
