Comment (by gk):

 Hm, we could use more log output I guess. We fail somewhere here
 {{{
             LOG.info("Waiting for control port");
             boolean isCreated = controlPortFile.exists() ||
 controlPortFile.createNewFile();
             WriteObserver controlPortFileObserver =
 onionProxyContext.createControlPortFileObserver();
             if (!isCreated || (controlPortFile.length() == 0 &&
 !controlPortFileObserver.poll(config.getFileCreationTimeout(), SECONDS)))
 {
                 LOG.warn("Control port file not created");
 }}}
 sisbell: any ideas apart from creating a debug build with more logging
 enabled? (if not, could you create that build and make it available for
 echaskaris?)
