[tor-relays] Problem with relay and ovh??

[Keifer Bly]

Hi,

So my relay at

https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#details/79E3B585803DE805CCBC00C1EF36B1E74372861D


Goes offline at sporadic times. Upon checking the tor log file, there does not appear to be anything written causing tor to crash:

Unless the old file is being overwritten when tor restarts. But is there a known problem with OVH that causes this?

Thanks.

Oddly there is no definite time when this happens, sometimes the relay operates no problem for weeks on end and then it happens, other times it only makes it a day or two.
