#5086: [URGENT] "Control socket is not connected" when starting TOR/Vidalia
------------------------------------------------+---------------------------
Reporter: kalender | Owner: chiiph
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: critical | Milestone:
Component: Vidalia | Version: Tor: 0.2.3.10-alpha
Keywords: control socket, port, vidalia, tor | Parent:
Points: | Actualpoints:
------------------------------------------------+---------------------------
I don't know why. But TOR/Vidalia just stopped working for me. I've never
had any problem with it. Just installed and launched without any error
messages.
Still, this message pops up:

"Vidalia was unable to authenticate to the Tor software. (Control socket
is not connected).
Please check your control port authentication settings"
'''?!?!?!?! '''
Googled for it without any success. Reinstalled Vidalia/TOR '''x''' times,
installed the latest version (Alpha), etc etc. Why won't it work anymore?
I havent change any setting at all. Anywhere.
Version: vidalia-bundle-'''0.2.3.10-alpha-0.2.15-1'''.exe
Windows XP
Please, help.
Thanks in advance,
/K
