“Tried to establish rendezvous on non-OR or non-edge circuit.”

Seen by an operator of a fairly large relay. The relay was also dropping CREATE cells due to CPU overload.

This message means that there is a bug somewhere. I don't know where.

changed milestone to %Tor: 0.2.3.x-final

added component::core tor/tor milestone::Tor: 0.2.3.x-final owner::rransom priority::medium resolution::fixed status::closed tor-hs type::defect labels

The relay's operator was not using the relay as a client or hidden service.

I've seeing this too on 2 relays, one an exit node and the other a middle node.

In both cases the message started on Sept 15th. - the day after I upgraded from 0.2.2.32 to 0.2.2.33.

On the busier node (the exit node) the message has been logged 39 times in the last 19 days.

Clarification:

I meant that I have seen the message in the title of this bug. If I've been dropping CREATE cells I am unaware of it.

fluxe3 has three to 30 of these in its logs per day. I think we tracked it down and concluded this should be a protocol warning before but then forgot to do anything about it.

It looks like "non-edge" in that message means that the OR at which the client is trying to ESTABLISH_RENDEZVOUS isn't the last (farthest-from-client) OR on the circuit. At the very least, that part of the message needs to be reworded.

This should become a protocol warning, but we do need to figure out what is going on here if possible.

This is caused by #4641 (moved).

#4641 (moved) is now fixed in master. Leaving this one open in case we want to downgrade it to protocol_warn.

Any support for downgrading this message? If not, I suggest we close.

Nobody thinks we should downgrade to protocol_warn. Closing.
