Unable to confirm my ORPort is reachable
Hi all, I have set up a tor relay on my Ubuntu machine by following the instructions given in the link <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TorRelayGuide>. To confirm whether the setup was done properly, I checked the status using the command: $ sudo service tor status and was getting status as "Active". Further, I looked into the log file /var/log/tor/notices.log using the command: $ tail -f /var/log/tor/notices.log and following was the output: May 24 18:24:54.000 [notice] Starting with guard context "default" May 24 18:24:54.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 80%: Connecting to the Tor network May 24 18:24:54.000 [notice] Signaled readiness to systemd May 24 18:24:55.000 [notice] Guessed our IP address as x.x.x.x (source: 204.13.164.118).

(this may take up to 20 minutes -- look for log messages indicating success) May 24 18:44:55.000 [warn] Your server (x.x.x.x:9001) has not managed to confirm that its ORPort is reachable. Relays do not publish descriptors until their ORPort and DirPort are reachable. Please check your firewalls, ports, address, /etc/hosts file, etc. Can anyone please help me with this issue? I am not able to figure out the reason behind this error message "Your server (x.x.x.x:9001) has not managed to confirm that its ORPort is reachable". Please also let me know if you feel there is any issue with the tor configuration. Thank you, Yash Kumar
what about port forwarding on the router / modem adsl ? Il giorno gio 24 mag 2018 alle ore 16:54 Yash Kumar <yashkr.99@gmail.com> ha scritto:

Based on the information provided, most likely port 9001 is not forwarded correctly at your router. Matt
Perhaps you can have the following problem if you use Linux: On some Linux system the iptable firewall block incoming connections by default. If I remember correctly, CentOS is a candidate for this behavior. After a general reset and configuring open ports I had success with my relay. An easy way to do this is the software "ufw", which is an overlay to iptables. Olaf Am 24.05.2018 um 16:56 schrieb Matt Traudt:
