#3320: Can't apply changes to torrc when Tor is not connected
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Reporter: agnieszkaMD | Owner: chiiph
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone:
Component: Vidalia | Version: Vidalia: 0.2.12
Keywords: | Parent:
Points: | Actualpoints:
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Defect reproduction steps:
1. In torrc file add two lines - !ExitNodes 1.1.1.1 and !StrictNodes 1, or
whatever will make connection to Tor network impossible.
2. Restart Tor.
3. Now Tor will constantly try to make a valid circuit and if you try to
remove those 2 lines (using Vidalia GUI) it won't affect.
Possible solutions:
In TorrcDialog.cpp there's plenty of tc->isConnected(). Maybe it isn't
necessary to be connected to save a torrc file? Also, isConnected() method
seems to be indicating a fully established circuit, not only control
socket connected to Tor.
