Nick and I were just looking over this thread, and he noticed your quotes
above. You're attempting to use the file ""/var/Process/tor.pid"". This
will not work. :)

We're going to fix the code to put quotes around file names when it's
logging problems, so hopefully the next guy will see two double-quotes
next to each other and start wondering.

Thanks,
