One thought. Try making sure you are running the newest version of the tor software. I say this because I know directory authorities recently started rejecting relays running older versions of tor. Another thing I might check if possible is if your router has a limit for how many simultaneous connections it can handle as if your router has a limit in this, this can cause issues with running a tor server as tor can require hundreds of connections at once.

See if you can route to all the authorities. Tor requires that all relays are able to contact all directory authorities.
In my case tcptraceroute would not get to all the authorities. For some authorities my ISP was not routing to them.

First, did your relay find itself reachable (both ORPort and DirPort) at startup? Look for lines like
Jun 05 12:47:50.013 [notice] Self-testing indicates your ORPort is reachable from the outside. Excellent.
and
Jun 05 12:48:43.824 [notice] Self-testing indicates your DirPort is reachable from the outside. Excellent. Publishing server descriptor.
Jun 06 15:36:26.000 [notice] Self-testing indicates your DirPort is reachable from the outside. Excellent. Jun 06 15:36:27.000 [notice] Self-testing indicates your ORPort is reachable from the outside. Excellent. Publishing server descriptor.
So, yes :)
Second, assuming yes for the first question, I wonder if the directory authorities are (still) finding it reachable. You can check the recent votes at https://collector.torproject.org/recent/relay-descriptors/votes/ or try the (easier to use if it works for you) interface at the bottom of https://consensus-health.torproject.org/#relayinfo
Maybe your port forwarding is expiring after a little while?
My fingerprint is C0417071C3754885296F4A5935AC1BC1CABDBC31. I see all authorities give me "V2Dir" and "Valid", but only three (longc, bastet, moria1) give "Running".
I use my ISP-provided fiber modem. Maybe it is expiring the connections when idle. Is there a way to request a heartbeat to be sent? _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
