[Sks-devel] [OT] Any Tor experts here?

[Danny Horne]

Hi all,

I've just spent several hours trying to get Tor running as a service
(under systemd) for sks.

Here's some relevant logs (the directories exist under toranon user /
group) -

Aug 29 18:46:16 marconi tor: Aug 29 18:46:16.566 [warn] Directory
/var/lib/tor/hidden_service/sks/ cannot be read: Permission denied
Aug 29 18:46:16 marconi tor: Aug 29 18:46:16.566 [warn] Failed to
parse/validate config: Failed to configure rendezvous options. See logs
for details.

Here's the relevant bit of /etc/tor/torrc

HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/hidden_service/sks/
HiddenServicePort 80 164.132.220.24:80
HiddenServicePort 11371 164.132.220.24:11371

When using this command (as root) it creates the necessary files and
runs, but won't run under systemd

/usr/bin/tor --runasdaemon 0 --defaults-torrc
/usr/share/tor/defaults-torrc -f /etc/tor/torrc

Here's a few links whose solutions I tried (without success)

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1279222

Anyone any clues?

Thanks for looking
