Thanks again for all the support everyone has bee extremely helpful. So, I reinstalled the OS on the VPS: lsb_release -d Description: Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS uname -r 2.6.32-042stab102.9
Finally solved all the permissions problems, paths are correct, tor and arm open properly. The problem now boils down to this: The VPS isn't allowing Ports 9001 and 9030 Should I investigate further getting my iptables up and running or just contact the admin and have them allow the ports? As I mentioned previously even after saving the tables upon reboot iptables -L shows no rules, the file is empty.
:~$ iptables -L Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Any further suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Try other ports or ask the hoster, if he blocks ports?! Or try 80 and 443, if there are free at your server.

David, low ports numbers are not good idea, he can have same issues. For my firewall i need to use something more then 9000 to make my exit/relay to work with my ISP.

The issue with the iptables rules not being loaded has to do with a script not being installed. On Debian it is iptables-persistent, and seems to be the same for Ubuntu. Once that is installed, you can save the rules you want reloaded by running:
iptables-save > /etc/iptables/rules.v4 ip6tables-save > /etc/iptables/rules.v6
That is the default location for the files that the init.d script will load at startup.
Hope this helps and let me know if you have any more questions or I got anything wrong.

Hi Kurt,
You need to know the public IPv4 address of your relay. Until you have the address correct, it's hard to tell whether you need to open any ports or not.
Dec 05 21:17:46.000 [notice] Your IP address seems to have changed to 167.114.35.28 (METHOD=INTERFACE). Updating. Dec 05 21:17:46.000 [notice] Our IP Address has changed from 142.4.217.95 to 167.114.35.28; rebuilding descriptor (source: METHOD=INTERFACE). Dec 05 21:18:42.000 [notice] Your IP address seems to have changed to 142.4.217.95 (METHOD=GETHOSTNAME HOSTNAME=ca3.pulseservers.com http://ca3.pulseservers.com/). Updating.

Dec 05 21:18:43.000 [notice] Self-testing indicates your ORPort is reachable from the outside. Excellent. Publishing server descriptor. Dec 05 21:38:37.000 [warn] Your server (142.4.217.95:9030) has not managed to confirm that its DirPort is reachable. Please check your firewalls, ports, address, /etc/hosts file, etc. Dec 05 21:58:37.000 [warn] Your server (142.4.217.95:9030) has not managed to confirm that its DirPort is reachable. Please check your firewalls, ports, address, /etc/hosts file, etc. I've gotten this far, not being much good at networking I can't tell where the problem lies.. do I need to forward something?
Tor is receiving two different IP addresses using two different methods of working out your VPS IP address: * gethostname() on ca3.pulseservers.com http://ca3.pulseservers.com/ returns 142.4.217.95 * an OS-specific interface address system call returns 167.114.35.28
Please find out from your admin which IPv4 address you should use, and specify it using the "Address" option in your torrc. (Or, alternately, make a connection to http://www.myipaddress.com/show-my-ip-address/ http://www.myipaddress.com/show-my-ip-address/ or similar from the VPS, and look at the address it returns.)

Once you know the correct IPv4 address, try launching Tor again, and give it 20 minutes to check reachability. If it still complains that it can't reach your ORPort or DirPort, then ask your admin if they need to open ports to a VPS. (From your previous posts, it looks like the ports are not being blocked on the VPS OS itself.)
