Since some months I monitored my tor instance via this one liner: echo "/info" | /usr/bin/arm -p | /bin/grep flags but it seems after updating to 0.2.7.6 it only gives my unknown as result. Has something changed the communication between tor and arm? Even manually I can only get this answer:

The command you've given still works properly on a couple of my relays which I've just tested. I've you've only *just* done the upgrade to 0.2.7.6, then remember that it can take a little bit of time for your relay to re-establish the appropriate flags again. What's the actual uptime on your relay at the moment? On 20 January 2016 at 22:09, Dr. Who <drwho@posteo.is> wrote:

That should not be the reason. Arm displays the flags right in the text gui when used without parameters. Only when called via "-p" for command line processing it seems to fail.

That does seem a tad odd though. For what it's worth though the interpreter's been moved out of nyx (aka arm) and into stem. Stem's interpreter got quite a few improvements... https://stem.torproject.org/tutorials/down_the_rabbit_hole.html Cheers! -Damian

Maybe something changed in 0.2.7.x and you should look for the successor of "arm" called "nyx" - ask "atagar" in #tor about that. FWIW I wrote a little python script using the stem libs of "atagar" to get a Tor status : [1] so I do not use arm any longer for simple /info commands [1] http://www.zwiebeltoralf.de/torserver/index.html - -- Toralf, pgp: C4EACDDE 0076E94E -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iF4EAREIAAYFAlafrpEACgkQxOrN3gB26U54TwD/Zj9uwvQSpr3JevtxeEWWe/qh b5wK/eohwGGz2GkqMOgA/ROtSJ4t6+65cY+JshDFtpHtyHC7EDBaeEDPr4t7krQ1 =2Ziz -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
