What do you mean by "fails to start"? What are the log messages?
if i increase AccountingMax in torrc, then it restarts just fine.
normal?
It's hard to say, without any log messages.
Teor,
the logs look normal. maybe I've misinterpreted not opening the listening ports as not starting. I didn't check the actual systemd service status (silly me, I know). it's running now so next time I encounter this, I'll double check.
It is normal for Tor to close its listening ports when hibernating. It is normal for hibernation to persist across a restart.
If you check the logs, it probably says something about this on startup, and when it starts hibernating.
(When Tor doesn't have the right permissions to re-open these ports, the process will exit when it resumes from hibernation. That's a config issue, not a bug.)
I also noticed in journalctl that it (Tor) wanted me to add 'ExitRelay 1' in my torrc to disable the exit relay warning and for future config requirements (it said). so i did that as well. all seems well as of now.
