Hello,
So I am trying to view the tor log file (for how much traffic was sent, etc) on my relay since start? I am trying using the “less /var/log/tor/torrc.txt” command but this only shows a blank screen with the word END and nothing else on Debian Linux.
Besides the tips others have shared with you, which are all very much to the point and correct, I also suggest you to try using nyx, a terminal-based status monitor for Tor relays. It has a very easy, informative user interface that shows you, over the time, the usage details of your relay -- Incoming/outgoing bandwidth (instantaneous and over a lapse of time), flags your relay has got, system health data, inbound/outbound connections, etc.
