Title: Vidalia issue
Post by: dr octagon on July 02, 2012, 03:41 am
Any ideas?

Over the last few months I find that seemingly randomly  tor hangs at "Establishing an encrypted directory" Bootstrapped 15%.

If I delete and re-install vidalia,  the problem goes away for a while.  I am running XP.

Don't know if I have really included enough info, please let me know.

I've seen this, too, in Linux. The problem is that some state is kept in the TBB directory (in my case, "tor-browser_en-US"). When it jams up, I usually rm the directory and untar the archive again.
