confirming onionoo/CollecTor issues vs. Happy Family relay misconfiguration
Hi, I've been contacting relay operators to verify suspected CollecTor/onionoo issues that appear since CollecTor got replaced in early April. To scale a bit better I'm sending this email to the tor-relays list + BCC instead. In most cases so far it turned out to be an onionoo issue but I see some slow improvements. If you are one of the operators listed below it would be great if you could help verifying your config and confirm if - this is indeed an onionoo issue (all your relays found by the onionoo URL below should have the same Happy Family configuration but according to onionoo do not) - or an inconsistent Happy Family configuration on your side: not all your relays have Happy Family configured (not an onionoo issue) - they are not actually your relays - in this case you can report them for removal to the bad-relays team if they use your contact information With your help we can get a better overview of the current onionoo / CollecTor situation. I noticed unexpected (missing) family_ids on relays using this CIISS url value: alxu.ca doedelkiste.de germancraft.net torix-relays.org tuxli.org for-privacy.net emeraldonion.org www.1aeo.com example onionoo URL for doedelkiste.de: https://onionoo.torproject.org/details?contact=doedelkiste.de&fields=family_... You can simply replace the contact parameter value with your domain. You should be able to spot suspicious lines in the output because these lines are shorter (no family_ids string included). thanks for your help! nusenu -- https://nusenu.github.io
Hi nusenu Thanks for digging into family_ids. I confirm all active relays are listed correctly. The two relays Ichotolot60/61 are shut down since April 4th and before that day never received the Family-ID line. Maybe they bounce in some history stage in the consensus.

Hi Felix,
Thanks for digging into family_ids.

thanks for pointing that out, I filed an onionoo issue for that, as relays not running for over 7 days should not be included in the details document. https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/network-health/metrics/onionoo/-/work_item... kind regards, nusenu -- https://nusenu.github.io
