[tor-bugs] #6655 [Vidalia]: Sometimes stalled at "Authenticating to Tor" stage
#6655: Sometimes stalled at "Authenticating to Tor" stage
-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
Reporter: intrigeri | Owner: chiiph
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone: Vidalia: 0.3.x
Component: Vidalia | Version: Vidalia: 0.3.2-alpha
Keywords: | Parent:
Points: | Actualpoints:
-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
I'm running 0.3.3~alpha-1 from Debian experimental to control a system-
wide instance of Tor 0.2.3.20-rc-1. I'm using ControlSocket
authentication.
Sometimes, when my NetworkManager post-up hook restarts Tor and then
Vidalia, Vidalia status window is stalled at "Authenticated to Tor".
Often, I kill the stalled Vidalia, wait a bit, start a new one that works
fine.
I initially thought it was because the hook was starting Vidalia too
early, at a time when the Tor control socket was not ready yet.
However, I managed to reproduce this issue once _without_ restarting Tor,
merely by killing my Vidalia and starting it soon after a dozen times. I
have no clue what made the failing test special compared to the other ten
or so successful tests.
I have seen a few similar tickets open, but most happen on Windows and/or
TBB, or lacking enough information for me to decide if my problem is the
same one, so I'll let you decide if it's a duplicate.
Thank you for working on Vidalia.
