* owner: catalyst => teor * version: => Tor: 0.3.0.1-alpha * milestone: Tor: unspecified => Tor: 0.3.6.x-final Comment: I have a draft branch for this bug. I still need to fix the entry nodes unit tests. There also seem to be other parts of tor's codebase that require a recent consensus: {{{ Nov 05 15:29:04.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 25%: Loading networkstatus consensus Nov 05 15:29:51.000 [notice] I learned some more directory information, but not enough to build a circuit: We have no usable consensus. Nov 05 15:29:52.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 40%: Loading authority key certs Nov 05 15:29:55.000 [warn] Our clock is 30 minutes, 6 seconds behind the time published in the consensus network status document (2018-11-05 06:00:00 UTC). Tor needs an accurate clock to work correctly. Please check your time and date settings! Nov 05 15:29:55.000 [warn] Received microdesc flavor consensus with skewed time (CONSENSUS): It seems that our clock is behind by 30 minutes, 6 seconds, or that theirs is ahead. Tor requires an accurate clock to work: please check your time, timezone, and date settings. Nov 05 15:29:55.000 [warn] Problem bootstrapping. Stuck at 40%: Loading authority key certs. (Clock skew -1806 in microdesc flavor consensus from CONSENSUS; CLOCK_SKEW; count 1; recommendation warn; host ? at ?) Nov 05 15:29:55.000 [notice] I learned some more directory information, but not enough to build a circuit: We have no recent usable consensus. Nov 05 15:29:55.000 [notice] I learned some more directory information, but not enough to build a circuit: We have no recent usable consensus. Nov 05 17:27:43.000 [notice] Your system clock just jumped 7056 seconds forward; assuming established circuits no longer work. }}} -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/24661#comment:13> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
