Hi,
I’m a bit confused right now. I’ve upgraded my relay to Debian Jessie yesterday and since then, arm keeps telling me
[ARM_WARN] The torrc differs from what tor's using. You can issue a sighup to reload the torrc values by pressing x.
- configuration value is missing from the torrc: RunAsDaemon
I’m running the same configuration as before (running Debian Wheezy), where it worked without any warning. RunAsDaemon is set to 1 in tor-service-defaults-torrc, still arm is showing me on the Tor configuration page “RunAsDaemon False”. Putting RunAsDaemon into torrc as well triggers this:
[ARM_WARN] The torrc differs from what tor's using. You can issue a sighup to reload the torrc values by pressing x.
- torrc value differs on line: 17
The problem here: There is no line 17 in my torrc…
I’ve already read tickets like #16459[1] and #2501[2] but it didn’t help much. Damian says in Ticket #16459
[…] This message is meant to help people who edit their torrc, forget to restart tor, and are then confused why the settings didn't take effect. [...]
I did restart tor (a couple times) and apparently it is running as a Daemon (service --status-all). So I hope this is “just” an issue with arm… Maybe someone of you has an idea?
I’m running arm 1.4.5.0 and tor 0.2.7.5 (from deb.torproject.org http://deb.torproject.org/)
Cheers, Jannis
