Hello,
did anyone else run into a problem when upgrading from 0.2.9.10 to 0.3.0.7 on Ubuntu?
Tor is no longer starting, with these messages in syslog:
[notice] Read configuration file "/usr/share/tor/tor-service-defaults-torrc". [notice] Read configuration file "/etc/tor/torrc". [warn] Directory /var/lib/tor/SERVICE_NAME/ cannot be read: Permission denied [warn] Checking service directory /var/lib/tor/SERVICE_NAME/ failed. [warn] Failed to parse/validate config: Failed to configure rendezvous options. See logs for details. [err] Reading config failed--see warnings above.
The permissions on /var/lib/tor/SERVICE_NAME/ are "rwx--S---" and it's owned by debian-tor, which worked for 0.2.9.10.
What user is your tor process running as?
There should be a log line with the user name in it.
Or you could use something like ps.
Otherwise, you will need to check the command line and both config files for a User option.
