Repeated warning in an exit relay
The relay repeatedly casts the following message: Sep 18 08:19:58.000 [warn] Tried to establish rendezvous on non-OR circuit with purpose Acting as rendevous (pending) What does it mean ? Livak Sent with [ProtonMail](https://protonmail.com) Secure Email.

What does it mean ?

We know about it for quite some time and investigating. It is safe to ignore it for the moment. No sense to open a ticket about it on trac as it's already there. It occurs on Exit relays. The faster the Exit, the more often you get it. Here is one of mine: ~$ cat /var/log/tor/tor.log | grep rendezvous | wc -l 386 only in the last ~27 hours. For the time being we don't think it's a security risk nor something that can crash relays. But at least we are 100% sure that we are not talking about just one or two misconfigured client implementations out there that sends duplicate ESTABLISH_RENDEZVOUS cells on the same circuit.
That's what I concluded after finding the ticket, but helpful to a new exit relay operator to have this confirmed. --torix Sent with ProtonMail Secure Email. ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ On Tuesday, September 18, 2018 9:10 AM, s7r <s7r@sky-ip.org> wrote:
