Hi Keifer,

on Debian you can check: tor -v; dpkg -l|grep "ii ?tor"
For me it shows:
  Tor 0.4.3.6 running on Linux
  ii  tor                            0.4.3.6-1~d10.buster+1
  ii  tor-geoipdb                    0.4.3.6-1~d10.buster+1

Next - check: ls -lA /var/log/tor
An my server it shows:
  -rw-r----- 1 debian-tor adm 0 Jul 13 21:03 log

The owner should be "debian-tor" or whatever your tor is running.
use: chown to change file owner and group
and: chmod to change file mod bits

Good luck!
