That returns "reading config failed" so no luck. Thanks anyway though! --Keifer

Hi all,

So my relay at

https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#details/79E3B585803DE805CCBC00C1EF36B...

...

Says it is running two different versions, on metrics it is showing it is running tor 0.4.3.5 but when I log into the VPS via SSH it says it is running tor 0.4.3.6. It has been like this for a few days now. Something is also not allowing me to check tors data logs, when I check my torrc it says the log file is /var/log/tor/notices.log, it either just loads a

blank

file or says the file is unwrite able. This is odd I don’t believe I did add any special configuration for this.

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!
