I am having the same difficulty since that time frame as well. Still
can't connect as server.

It will build endlessly like this and periodically I get a
"not managed to confirm its ORPort/DirPort reachable".

I've tried the obvious stuff such as bypassing firewalls but its not
it. Tried 0.1.0.14 and 0.1.1.5-alpha, changing ports, restarting,
nothing works. Mysteriously, there were brief times when everything
went alright but it's been a couple of days that I simply can not
connect as server. I've never had an outage like this for so long.

I can't make anything useful from the debug log, would it help if I
posted it here?

.. If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.
