Can't tell. I switched to 0.1.1.x long ago...

IMO every version i tried so far has this problem (dirport or orport
not reachable until restarted) and 1.1.20 is no exception.  Sometimes it
works, sometimes not, even after a restart. I mean it may need several
restarts.  Other times, it handles this just right.  It's no big deal, as
eventually I'll notice it.

It happened for the last time may 27th.  So I don't have the logs anymore.

Should you need further info, I'll be happy to help.
