Having a similar issue with Bisq 0.9.3 on Tails 3.10.1.
To enable Bisq to use the platform native Tor 0.3.4.8, I have inserted an iptables rule allowing localhost access to port 9052, copied the Tor authcookie to a readable location and finally, started Bisq with --torControlPort=9052
and --torControlCookie=control.authcookie
Everything appears to start up OK initially, but does not progress past step 3/4, specifically:
- bitcoin peers get connected and wallet gets synchronized with mainnet
- hidden service gets published
- I get a healthy amount of outbound P2P peers, with roundtrips under 5000ms
- I get 1-2 inbound connections to the onion service as well, with traffic flowing in both directions
- can see the orderbook and past trades
- can see the exchange rate
However, some things don’t work as intended, ultimately resulting in complete unusability:
- “create new offer” fails with “no arbitrators available”
- in one singular case when I was allowed to create an offer, publishing the offer failed with “You need to wait until you are fully connected to the network. That might take up to about 2 minutes at startup” (not the case, it was more than 6 hours from Bisq startup)
Can anyone please help?
Happy to answer any questions or requests for diagnostic information.
