Hi,

It's me again. I've finally gotten our server working and host it via Tor hidden service. In order to enable tor, I add the hidden service name *****.onion to the server_name in the nginx configuration file.

Everything else works fine except I cannot send out the connect request. I get an error saying "Unable to resolve your name at the provided location." The identity address is something like: nickname@**.onion It seems the server cannot resolve *****.onion. Is there a way around this?

Thanks!

You're trying to do a dns resolution of a .onion TLD which doesn't exist. I'm not a tor expert, try something like this https://medium.com/p/436bece8602f

Thank you for pointing out what causes the problem.
