hello, probably too late but these are the necessary changes to be made, to make it run:

import os
import shutil

from stem.control import Controller
from flask import Flask

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/')
def index():
  return "<h1>Hi Grandma!</h1>"

print(' * Connecting to tor')

# if you are on windows use 9151 else 9150
with Controller.from_port(port=9151) as controller:
  controller.authenticate()

  # Create a hidden service where visitors of port 80 get redirected to local
  # port 5000 (this is where Flask runs by default).
  hidden_service_dir = "C:/tmp"
  print(" * Creating our hidden service in %s" % hidden_service_dir)
  result = controller.create_hidden_service(hidden_service_dir, 80, "localhost", target_port = 5000)

  # The hostname is only available when we can read the hidden service
  # directory. This requires us to be running with the same user as tor.

  with open("C:/tmp/hostname", "r") as h:
      print('service established at %s' %h.read())

  try:
    app.run()
  finally:
    # Shut down the hidden service and clean it off disk. Note that you *don't*
    # want to delete the hidden service directory if you'd like to have this
    # same *.onion address in the future.

    print(" * Shutting down our hidden service")
    controller.remove_hidden_service(hidden_service_dir)
    shutil.rmtree(hidden_service_dir)

this is also giving same error. do i need to start tor service ?

[0-harshit-0]

yes, if you have a tor installed on windows, just open it and the code should work perfectly

[jakbin]

i am using linux . i run tor on port 9050 and also change port in code, but it is not working.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/dj/Desktop/test/stem-example.py", line 19, in <module>
    controller.authenticate()
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/stem/control.py", line 1112, in authenticate
    stem.connection.authenticate(self, *args, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/stem/connection.py", line 536, in authenticate
    raise IncorrectSocketType('unable to use the control socket')
stem.connection.IncorrectSocketType: unable to use the control socket

I think it should be 9051* sock5 is on 9051, on windows its 9151 ....

[jakbin]

I think it should be 9051* sock5 is on 9051, on windows its 9151 ....

i got this error. i use port 9051.

[warn] Socks version 80 not recognized. (This port is not an HTTP proxy; did you want to use HTTPTunnelPort?)

that is something IDK... hope your tor is updated and one more thing. go to /etc/tor > vim torrc and make sure the (controlPort 9051) line is not commented and the (sockport 9050) line as well except for these 2 everything should be commented (that is how I have in mine...) you can uncomment them as you learn more and need more control over tor like authentication, etc. but for now, they are not required.

[jakbin]

this is now working. thanks for reply.

[0-harshit-0]

so how exactly did you make it work?.. would like to know haha..

by using this instructions, and chnage permission of hidden_service_dir to 700

@0-harshit-0 any example, how to run tor service with tor without interfere with other tor processes on your compute .

[0-harshit-0]

if I understand correct, you are trying to run 2 tor service on your computer and they are resulting in same address is that it?

[jakbin]

No , I want to run tor with stem . Like : onionshare .

k but you have created a flask application right, just add some good UI and File handling to it ? that should work right?
