It seems that tor is running with default values and is not reading /etc/tor/torrc as there is no ... -f /etc/tor/torrc option being used by the running tor when it is displayed with 'ps'.
The 'ps' output for the tor instance is
/usr/bin/tor --defaults-torrc /usr/share/tor/tor-service-defaults-torrc --hush
I had asumed that because I have set DirPort to 80 and ORPort to 443 in /etc/tor/torrc and can see in the tor log files that those two ports are reachable from outside, that the running tor was reading /etc/tot/torrc.
Something is amiss with my tor configuration but I don't know what.
Any hints as to where to look would be welcome while I try to RTFM again!

This isn't really a Tor issue, it's an Ubuntu one. But you need to figure out how "service" is launching Tor and change it to point to your /etc torrc.

Hi Christian I think you lost that cup of coffee! I did a bit more research since my posting and found the info I needed by doing 'man tor' on my Ubuntu 14.04.3 system. The tor man page says that tor looks for /etc/tor/torrc by default, or $HOME/.torrc if that file is not found. I only have an /etc/tor/torrc file and I am satisfied that it is being read correctly by tor. The ARM_WARN message of which I originally complained is an arm problem, not a tor one, it seems. Thanks to all those who replied. Cheers Q On Mon, Sep 21, 2015 at 6:52 PM, Christian <brightsidedarkside@t-online.de> wrote:
