Re: [tor-relays] Why is my Tor bridge relay not getting any traffic?



You don't connect to your bridge, you connect to the tor network if you use the socks5. So yes, the check passes, because it's being sent over the tor network, not using your bridge but using tor's socks5 proxy.

Also in your config you have set the socks port to 9031, but in this line of code you connect to port 90. Probably a typo but just FYI.

Thanks a lot.

So is it normal to have little traffic when in bridge mode? But why is reported speed so slow?

And why is it reporting 0 unique clients even though my monitor connects to it? I forgot to add the monitor code, here it is:

#!/bin/bash

if [[ $(curl --socks5 localhost:90 --socks5-hostname localhost:90 -s https://check.torproject.org/ | cat | grep -m 1 Congratulations | xargs) ]]; then
    curl -s https://hc-ping.com/abcdefgh &> /dev/null
 fi

It connects to Tor's SOCKS and goes to check.torproject.org, if it receives a text back and this text has congratulations message it calls hc-ping.com. So, wasn't my monitor meant to be counted?

This is my torrc removing identifiable data.
There may be nothing wrong at all.  See the following page for more
context: <https://community.torproject.org/relay/setup/bridge/post-install/>

Feel free to email me your bridge's fingerprint and I will look up what
bucket your bridge is in.  For what it's worth, bridge operators are
hopefully soon able to do this themselves once we are done with this
ticket: <https://bugs.torproject.org/29480>
