   I could not find anything on how to get the hidden services address when running with “listenonion=1”. Can I get it from the logs?

   getnetworkinfo should have it under “localaddresses”

   Most helpful.

   But the localaddresses array is empty… This is what I get

    0{
    1  "version": 120000,
    2  "subversion": "/Classic:0.12.0/",
    3  "protocolversion": 70012,
    4  "localservices": "0000000000000005",
    5  "timeoffset": 0,
    6  "connections": 8,
    7  "networks": [
    8    {
    9      "name": "ipv4",
   10      "limited": false,
   11      "reachable": false,
   12      "proxy": "",
   13      "proxy_randomize_credentials": false
   14    }, 
   15    {
   16      "name": "ipv6",
   17      "limited": false,
   18      "reachable": false,
   19      "proxy": "",
   20      "proxy_randomize_credentials": false
   21    }, 
   22    {
   23      "name": "onion",
   24      "limited": false,
   25      "reachable": false,
   26      "proxy": "",
   27      "proxy_randomize_credentials": false
   28    }
   29  ],
   30  "relayfee": 0.00005000,
   31  "localaddresses": [
   32  ],
   33  "warnings": ""
   34}
   

   When I look into the debug.log I see this:

   02016-03-17 08:09:04 tor: Connected to Tor version 0.2.7.6
   12016-03-17 08:09:04 tor: Supported authentication method: COOKIE
   22016-03-17 08:09:04 tor: Supported authentication method: HASHEDPASSWORD
   32016-03-17 08:09:04 tor: Supported authentication method: SAFECOOKIE
   42016-03-17 08:09:04 tor: Using SAFECOOKIE authentication, reading cookie authentication from /var/run/tor/control.authcookie
   52016-03-17 08:09:04 tor: Authentication cookie /var/run/tor/control.authcookie could not be opened (check permissions)
   

   I put in the password for the control service with “torpassword=password”. I do not want to use cookieauthentication. Is the setup actually failing?

   Sorry, I have to add one thing: I am still reindexing. Maybe that is the issue.

   Yes, the setup is failing. If it’s not actually authenticating to tor it won’t get a hidden service address. Disabling cookie authentication at the Tor side should solve this. Reindexing doesnn’t have to do with it.

   BTW, for issues with classic you should use this issue tracker: https://github.com/bitcoinclassic/bitcoinclassic/issues

   :) I understand your point @laanwj But this is such a basic part of the code that I hope it is okay that I put the issue where I would assume it might have come from.

   Thanks for the feedback.

    @laanwj Verified the fix. For anyone else having issues: I actuallty had to set

    0CookieAuthentication 0
    

    in the /etc/tor/torrc to make it work.

    Principally we can’t support custom changes on top of the code, it’s not our responsibility and also makes it impossible to determine what bug comes from our code or from other’s changes. So - before reporting here at least make sure that you tested that it also happens with the code from here. (in this case that was clear, sure)

    One last thing @laanwj if you dont mind. How can I make the bitcoind accept connections on tor AND ipv4 AND ipv6. I am trying this:

    0# bitcoin.conf configuration file. Lines beginning with # are comments.
    1daemon=1
    2listen=1
    3rpcpassword=bbbbb
    4minrelaytxfee=0.00005
    5torpassword=xxxxx
    6discover=1
    

    but get this:

     0bitcoin-cli getnetworkinfo
     1{
     2  "version": 120000,
     3  "subversion": "/Classic:0.12.0/",
     4  "protocolversion": 70012,
     5  "localservices": "0000000000000005",
     6  "timeoffset": -1,
     7  "connections": 13,
     8  "networks": [
     9    {
    10      "name": "ipv4",
    11      "limited": false,
    12      "reachable": false,
    13      "proxy": "",
    14      "proxy_randomize_credentials": false
    15    }, 
    16    {
    17      "name": "ipv6",
    18      "limited": false,
    19      "reachable": false,
    20      "proxy": "",
    21      "proxy_randomize_credentials": false
    22    }, 
    23    {
    24      "name": "onion",
    25      "limited": false,
    26      "reachable": true,
    27      "proxy": "127.0.0.1:9050",
    28      "proxy_randomize_credentials": true
    29    }
    30  ],
    31  "relayfee": 0.00005000,
    32  "localaddresses": [
    33    {
    34      "address": "kljhw4txgqymrcer.onion",
    35      "port": 8333,
    36      "score": 4
    37    }
    38  ],
    39  "warnings": ""
    40}
    

    Looks to me as if the local ipv4 and ipv6 is not being used / propagated to the network…

    laanwj commented at 1:24 pm on March 17, 2016: member

    Yes, that is supported - if you’re not using either -onlynet or -proxy explicitly, it should use tor/onion as additional network, so that should be ok.

    Should it then not list my ip addresses in the “localaddresses” array?
