After thinking about it I found an easy workaround. Just create the (empty) file: $ touch /etc/sysconfig/tor Still waiting for this to be fixed though. Confirmed, systemd refuses to start tor if /etc/sysconfig/tor doesn't exist. And the file is not created by any of the tor packages. This also occurs on x86_64 (and presumably all platforms). tor-0.2.1.30-1501.fc15 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 15. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/tor-0.2.1.30-1501.fc15 tor-0.2.1.30-1501.fc15 has been pushed to the Fedora 15 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. Tor definitely still doesn't start, with version tor-0.2.1.30-1501. I tried touching the sysconfig file and even commenting it out of the systemd service file, but I still can't get the service to start with systemd. Also, it starts perfectly fine copy and pasting the execstart command from the tor.service file so I don't know why it won't work normally. see bug 744005 for a new one :) |
Created attachment 483636 [details] Relevant part from /var/log/messages Description of problem: TOR service fails to start, automatically or manually. When started manually using 'service tor start' command, the system reports:" Job failed. See system logs and 'systemctl status' for details." Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): tor-0.2.1.29 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enable TOR service (e.g. 'chkconfig tor on') 2. Start TOR 3. systemd fails to start TOR Actual results: TOR fails to start. Expected results: TOR starts. Additional info: After looking at /lib/systemd/system/tor.service file, I found that it refers to /etc/sysconfig/tor file, which doesn't exist. Perhaps this is the cause?
