Re: [tor-relays] nyx question on info on top right side, present on CentOS, missing on Debian.

[Damian Johnson <atagar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Stijn, my first thought is that this might be tor's
DisableDebuggerAttachment feature. It causes proc contents to only be
readable by root. Usually this breaks Nyx's connection resolution but
it can prevent resource usage lookups too. Does setting
'DisableDebuggerAttachment 0' in your torrc cause the data to appear?

If not then the next step is to take a peek at the debug logs. If you
send me the logs on both platforms with any data you feel is sensitive
redacted I'd be happy to take a peek. I only need the first five
seconds or so of logs (just need to see the first resource resolution
attempt).

Cheers! -Damian
