Simply issuing service tor restart will restart the tor process entirely. Often for simply configuration changes you can just do service tor reload though. A DirPort serves HTTP directory requests (e.g. information about relays on the network) and an ORPort is what serves Tor users traffic and connections.

| Aug 14, 2017 at 2:26 | comment | added | cacahuatl | It does look like that port isn't available, you don't need to expose a dirport (infact in future I think its going to be more or less deprecated) but it's possible that there's some port forwarding that hasn't been setup or a firewall or packet filter in the way on your network? | |
| Aug 13, 2017 at 23:51 | comment | added | Ysblik | I can see the log, thanks, this used to be in /var/log/tor which is now blank, i now have a notices.log which is what used to be in the blank log file? i have been trying to understand what i should be running. I have viewed a youtube video "how to create and run a Tor middle relay on Ubuntu" I had done most of what is described but he stated that by allowing in the Torrc file under mirror directory DirPort 9030 it would help.......so that is what I did. I am now looking at the Notices.log its saying [warn] your server (82.3.6.169:9030) has not managed to confirm its DirPort is reachable. | |

I believe that on Ubuntu tor now logs to syslog (systemd journal) by default, to view the logs run the command sudo journalctl -u tor@default
