tor seems to ignore "DirServer" option
I've got the following 3 directives in my torrc:
DirServer 95.223.60.130:443 23155386E3B4B93B0294DB3A6263A8FAFE273255 DirServer 89.245.227.226:9001 6CB447C4CBCC4F5BDB4BA096902C2956CB534999 DirServer 109.228.139.83:9001 9DD97868543CB3CF432B96C082DFAC1FD16F6768
but none of the above statements seem to have been honoured by tor as I get this in my logs (debug-level):
[notice] {GENERAL} 0 entries in guards [info] {CIRC} compute_weighted_bandwidths(): Empty routerlist passed in to consensus weight node selection for rule weight as guard [info] {CIRC} smartlist_choose_node_by_bandwidth(): Empty routerlist passed in to old node selection for rule weight as guard [info] {DIR} directory_pick_generic_dirserver(): No router found for consensus network-status fetch; falling back to dirserver list. [info] {DIR} router_pick_dirserver_generic(): No dirservers are reachable. Trying them all again. [notice] {DIR} While fetching directory info, no running dirservers known. Will try again later. (purpose 14) [info] {GENERAL} or_state_save(): Saved state to "/var/lib/tor/tor/state"
Why?
I don't usually set the DirServer options, but, as of yesterday, my tor gets stuck at 5% when I shutdown tor after getting the following log:
{PROTOCOL} Received a bad CERTS cell from [scrubbed]:9001: The link certificate didn't match the TLS public key
I then wiped out the entire /var/lib/tor directory (to force fresh consensus download) and then got this when I tried to start tor (again, debug-level):

Repeat ad-nauseum! The above log seems to stem from the fact that it looks as though dannenberg ($7BE683E65D48141321C5ED92F075C55364AC7123/193.23.244.244) doesn't accept connections on ports 443 or 80 anymore (is it down?), grinding my tor bootup to a screeching halt - something I tried to offset by explicitly setting 3 "DirServer" options, but to no avail.
Secondly, why is tor insisting on downloading its descriptors/data from that directory and not trying some other - is dannenberg the only one? I seriously doubt it!
