 If `Sandbox 1` is set in `torrc`, Nyx (both stable 2.0.4 and
 [[https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/28332#comment:7|git
 version]]) makes Tor write the error in log file:

 {{{
 [err] sandbox_getaddrinfo(): Bug: (Sandbox) failed to get address
 [hostname redacted]! (on Tor 0.3.4.9 )
 }}}

 This is always written only once, during startup of Nyx.

 me to file this ticket. He assumes that the bug is on Tor's side:

 > It sounds like simply calling `GETINFO address` causes its sandboxing
 code to issue a bug warning. This is either uncovering a bug on their side
 or this log message should be downgraded (i.e., not err runlevel or say
 it's a Tor bug).
