-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hi,
If you installed from deb.torproject.org I assume you are using Tor 0.2.6.10, correct? (run # tor --version to check this). Please explain once again what you did, I don't exactly understand. Have you restored a hidden service for which you had backups of private_key and hostname files? Or did you leave Tor to create a new hidden service? What do you mean by 'set-up a directory in user's Documents folder'? If you have installed via apt, your datadirectory should be /var/lib/tor, unless you didn't change it by modifying torrc. Do you see there files like cached-microdesc-consensus, lock, state, etc.? Also, the username who should run Tor on your system is debian-tor. Please provide more details and torrc entries.
