Hi, whenever I run the tor addon, I get

The following components and platforms could not be set up:

homekit
zeroconf
default-config
ios
Please check your config.

with the following error in the logs OSError: [Errno 105] No buffer space available.

I guess it’s not directly linked to the tor addon (I run 20 containers + 7 networks including Swarm overlays) an I must have hit a limit somewhere. The tor addon seems to be the straw that broke the camel’s back :slight_smile:

Has someone encountered the same problem ? Any clue ?

103

Oups, found a fix in here: Zeroconf error

I don’t know if these are the most optimal values, but it works :smiley:

Thanks for maintaining the add-on!
Any hope of fixing stealth mode?

106

Stealth mode works for me.

107

mine works just fine unless I set stealth: true
probably if I’m the only lucky one that doesn’t count…

108

Just setting stealth mode is not enough, you have to configure you clients and make sure to use the v2, not the v3 versions.

109

But what’s the point of configuring my clients if the add-on fails to start when I change stealth to true?
Or I’m missing something else?

Hi, since the TOR developers announced support for V2 will end soon, will the add-on support v3 (with authentication)?

112

Hi, I’ve just tried setting this up. I get no errors and a valid .onion address. I’ve got the browser and it prompts with user and password. When I enter valid credentials it appears to login and then comes up with the HA logo and “retry” underneath.

I noticed I had a notification of a failed login from a 172.x.x.x address so I added trusted networks into my config.yaml. This changes it so I can select a user, but still gets the same results.

Any ideas?

Hello,

I have installed Tor add-on with this configuration:

log_level: info
socks: false
hidden_services: true
stealth: true
client_names:
  - haremote1
  - haremote2
ports:
  - 8123
My logs are:

The add-on doesn’t give me the authentication cookie. Could it be because I have AdGuard and Wireguard installed?

114

Can someone tell me why the addon stops at the last line of my last post (starting tor temporarily…) ?
I have trusted networks on. Could be because of this?
I am stuck

Hi!

I’m having an issue when entering more than one client in the config when enabling stealth mode.

My config looks like this:

socks: false
hidden_services: true
stealth: true
client_names:
  - test1
  - test2
ports:
  - '1111'
  - '1111:443'

The log outputs the following:

[s6-init] ensuring user provided files have correct perms...exited 0.
[fix-attrs.d] applying ownership & permissions fixes...

Thanks for the addon!

Hi,

Trying to set up tor but getting the following:

Jun 30 22:16:15.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 100% (done): Done
Jun 30 22:16:51.000 [warn] http status 400 (“Nonauthoritative directory does not accept posted server descriptors”) response from dirserver ‘46.38.253.161:443’. Malformed rendezvous descriptor?

Im using below configuration:

hidden_services: true
stealth: false
client_names: []
ports:
  -  '8123:80'
log_level: info

Please assist!
Thanks!

Good morning all,

Just configured for a remote install, and it works flawlessly.

When connecting via Onion Browser though, it warns me that V2 of the protocol is deprecated and we should use V3… not sure if it was already discussed and planned?

Otherwise I’m open to solutions to upgrade DYI.

118

Hello,

I think that Tor is not working anymore, support for V2 addresses has been stopped!
A few minutes ago my Tor browser is auto updated and I’m trying to reach my remote home assistant which has V2 address and it is not working anymore.

Nov 15 19:13:15.874 [warn] DEPRECATED: Onion service version 2 are deprecated. Please use version 3 which is the default now. Currently, version 2 is planned to be obsolete in the Tor version 0.4.6 stable series.

thx for any info!

119

…same for me. Updated to the latest Tor browser automatically and the onion access is now failing.
Is there any plans to move the Tor addon to onion Lvl 3?

Many thanks

120

Me too…

Server is responding err 400

[warn] http status 400 ("Nonauthoritative directory does not accept posted server descriptors") response from dirserver '51.15.51.15:443'. Malformed rendezvous descriptor?

And client issues this:

Details: 0xF6 — The provided .onion address is invalid. This error is returned due to one of the following reasons: the address checksum doesn't match, the ed25519 public key is invalid, or the encoding is invalid.

121

Some more info:

It works if your client has the old stack (aka version 10.5)

I was able to use it from a Tor Browser version 11.0.1 when a 10.5 tor browser has been previusly inititaded and connected to tor network.

So, it seems some little tickle in the tor server running inside the tor add-on.
