Description:
For a full description and fixes please see https://forum.manjaro.org/t/tor-config-changes-needed-for-control-socket-access-by-external-apps-like-nyx/126435
TLTD;
- Additions needed in
tor.service
:
[Service]
User=tor
Group=tor
RuntimeDirectory=tor
- Changes needed in
/etc/tor/torrc
-
Comment out the line that says
User tor
at top, because Tor will barf otherwise. (or just remove it entirely) (Tor is already started as usertor
by systemd in this case, so Tor can’t change it’s UID/GUID again😉 ) -
To make adjustments by the admin easier: You should un-comment the last line in
/etc/tor/torrc
that says%include /etc/torrc.d/*.conf
so it reads extra config snippets placed by the admin by default.
