Hi all,
I have recently installed a new tor relay (non-exit) in a new vsp. For several days now its bandwidth, according to ARM, is in the bits/second and there seems to be some problem reading its own torrc file. Also, while it had four connections for a while, there are none now.
Part of ARM quote: [ARM NOTICE] Read last day of bandwidth history from state file (-7502 seconds is missing) [ARM WARN] The torrc differs frm what tor's using. You an issue a sighup to reload the torrc values by pressing x. .....
and for good measure [ARM NOTICE] Tor is preventing system utiliites like netstat and lsof from working. This means arm can't provide you with connection information.......
Sometimes I also get that the data directory is not configured but I have left this commented out in the torrc file, being satisfied to use the default.
I do get a "normal running" flag on tor stats and a bandwidth of zero.
While I am very familiar with Linux in general this install is on debian which is new for me.
Any ideas on where I might start to sort this out would be appreciated.
