I'm using Start9. Downloaded core and electrs. I'm trying to connect to it with the Green app and it won't connect.

I'm using the hostname and port from properties. The xxxxxx.onion:50001

Any tips to get it to connect? Everything is running and green.

Electrs is currently only exposed over Tor. Your Tor daemon is up and running, right?

Here's a guide that might also help: https://github.com/Start9Labs/electrs-startos/blob/master/docs/integrations/blockstreamgreen/guide.md

What I noticed with the guide is it left the :t on the end. Does that need to stay? I'm about to try it with that.

Didn't work with the :t or without. I guess I'll try another wallet.

Just went through the process on Desktop, without the :t, and it seems fine. I can connect to my Electrs and view TXs. Obviously the docs are out of date, now that there's a new UI, but you should be able to copy and paste the .onion.

What I can't see on the new interface is anything that shows whether Tor successfully completed bootstrapping. Maybe you're having trouble there.

I assume so, I have the option selected for Green wallet toggled on. I was able to connect to the server with Phoenix wallet just now.
