Hi all,
I have set up a tor relay on my Ubuntu machine by following the instructions given in the
link. To confirm whether the setup was done properly, I checked the status using the command:
$ sudo service tor status
and was getting status as "Active".
Further, I looked into the log file /var/log/tor/notices.log using the command:
$ tail -f /var/log/tor/notices.log
and following was the output:
May 24 18:24:54.000 [notice] Starting with guard context "default"
May 24 18:24:54.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 80%: Connecting to the Tor network

May 24 18:24:59.000 [notice] Now checking whether ORPort x.x.x.x:9001 is reachable... (this may take up to 20 minutes -- look for log messages indicating success)
May 24 18:44:55.000 [warn] Your server (x.x.x.x:9001) has not managed to confirm that its ORPort is reachable. Relays do not publish descriptors until their ORPort and DirPort are reachable. Please check your firewalls, ports, address, /etc/hosts file, etc.
Can anyone please help me with this issue?
I am not able to figure out the reason behind this error message "Your server (x.x.x.x:9001) has not managed to confirm that its ORPort is reachable".
Please also let me know if you feel there is any issue with the tor configuration.
Thank you,
Yash Kumar
