I wouldn't expect the log file to show anything until it actually encounters the error, and given the log file is overwritten each time you start EPS, then if there were any logs in there from before they won't be there anymore.
You'll need to start EPS with the config.ini file set up for broadcast_method = tor and actually try to broadcast a transaction and have it fail, then examine the .log file to see why.

Thanks o_e_l_e_o I was looking in the wrong folder in AppData\Roaming. I should've checked their GitHub before posting but it's there in AppData\Local\Temp/ like you say.
I've searched for tor in the electrumpersonalserver.log file. I'm hitting history and monitor but there isn't an output for tor errors. It's logged connection errors like Error with bitcoin json-rpc: JsonRpcError({'code': -28, 'message': 'Loading wallet '}) while Bitcoin Core's loading but nothing specifically about tor.
I've said before the broadcast_method = tor-or-own-node or broadcast_method = tor issue isn't critical to running EPS on Win 11 over tor but I'd like to know why it doesn't work the way it's supposed to. I'll take a detailed look at the electrumpersonalserver.log when I'm ready to test EPS over tor again. I'll set configs to tor_port=9050 & 9150 with tor browser open-closed. Thanks for helping try to pinpoint what's going on.

There definitely will be a log file. I don't run Windows so I can't say for sure, but at the top of the EPS window when you launch it it should tell you where it is logging to.
Edit: Here's an issue from their GitHub from someone running Windows 10, which says it is logging to "C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Local\Temp/electrumpersonalserver.log". Check there.

I've checked but it's like EPS on Windows doesn't have a log file. The bitcoin core log doesn't output EPS tor_port errors.

Note that port 9050 is for the Tor daemon, and 9150 is for the Tor browser.
I assume when you try using tor you are commenting out tor-or-own-node and not leaving a conflict?
There shouldn't be a conflict because of the lines I've uncommented it looks like it should work. I've used tor browser for broadcast_method = tor-or-own-node which works on config tor_port 9150. It doesn't broadcast on broadcast_method = tor so I've implemented combos which didn't work. It's annoying but isn't critical.I assume when you try using tor you are commenting out tor-or-own-node and not leaving a conflict?
Code:
# Parameter for broadcasting unconfirmed transactions
# Options are:
# * tor-or-own-node (use tor if tor is running locally, otherwise own-node)
# * own-node (broadcast using the connected full node)
# * tor (broadcast to random nodes over tor)
# * system %s (save transaction to file, and invoke system command
# with file path as parameter %s)
#broadcast_method = tor-or-own-node
#broadcast_method = own-node
broadcast_method = tor
# For tor broadcasting (broadcast_method = tor) configure
# the tor proxy host and port below
tor_host = localhost
# tor_host = 127.0.0.1
tor_port = 9150
# Options are:
# * tor-or-own-node (use tor if tor is running locally, otherwise own-node)
# * own-node (broadcast using the connected full node)
# * tor (broadcast to random nodes over tor)
# * system
# with file path as parameter %s)
#broadcast_method = tor-or-own-node
#broadcast_method = own-node
broadcast_method = tor
# For tor broadcasting (broadcast_method = tor) configure
# the tor proxy host and port below
tor_host = localhost
# tor_host = 127.0.0.1
tor_port = 9150
Can you check the logs when you try to broadcast over tor only and see what they say?
I've checked but it's like EPS on Windows doesn't have a log file. The bitcoin core log doesn't output EPS tor_port errors. October 30, 2023, 02:14:08 AM

Thanks. I've tried making it work by uncommenting & modifying the tor lines but it doesn't solve it. I've got the EPS code working with configs on using tor-or-own-network. The internet's connected over tor so it's secure but it doesn't work in the way it's supposed to because tor only works on tor-or-own-network setting. If it's a Windows issue it doesn't matter I won't investigate it longer.
I was talking about: config.ini_sample which is copied to config.ini as per the instructions.
My reply is just based off the notes in the commented lines; if it doesn't work then you may have to stick with the working config.

The lines were commented out by default in the EPS I've downloaded. When I've used tor instead of tor-or-own-node for broadcast_method it doesn't broadcast or process transactions. I've altered settings for tor host & tor post with 9150, localhost & 127.0.0.1 but those settings don't work.

The EPS only works over tor when I'm using broadcast_method = tor-or-own-node that's when the output's

For recap it's working over tor only when broadcast_method = tor-or-own-node gets used. If you're using EPS on Win11 is that how you're using it?
Code:

Those "tor_host" and "tor_port" options aren't commented-out by default, is there a reason why you disabled them?
If so, it could be the reason since it explicitly noted that those are required for broadcast_method = tor.
Also, 127.0.0.1 IP already reserved for localhost, although putting duplicate wont cause harm, setting both at the same time is still unnecessary.

It's a question that's been answered by another amazing helper so thanks for the info. I couldn't understand how Bitcoin Core showed watch-only addresses if EPS wasn't open. It's understood now.
It isn't easy running nodes because of SSD GB occupied by Bitcoin's blockchain. If you're using a node on Windows trying EPS & Electrum Wallet for a new experience's advisable.

It's imported to a "watching-only" wallet in Bitcoin Core.
Reference: github.com/chris-belcher/electrum-personal-server#how-to
It's a way for Electrum Personal Server to fetch your transactions from Bitcoin Core without requiring a full UTXO set index.
Since it's a wallet, it's saved in Bitcoin Core's data directory and will load whether EPS is running or not.
It works like a normal wallet but doesn't contain any private keys.

I've compiled MPK's in EPS config.ini but if my EPS isn't running where's Bitcoin Core's getting the addresses from. Bitcoin Core's listing watch-only addresses in real time. It's confusing.

I've unlocked to ask a question bugging me.
I haven't encountered problems I'm pleased it's working but I don't understand how Bitcoin Core displays watch-only address balances if EPS isn't running.
In my EPS config.ini I've added multiple MPK so how's Bitcoin Core showing accumulative balances if I didn't open EPS or Electrum wallet? Bitcoin Core alerted when a watch-only address received payment while EPS wasn't running. My RPC setting's active in Bitcoin Core so where's it receiving my MPK list from?

I've tried sending another transaction unsuccessfully. Examining files I noticed server=1 was missing in my bitcoin.conf file I don't know how it was removed. What confused me was EPS broadcasts it but Electrum Wallet doesn't send funds. It's working after server=1 was inserted.
I've locked the thread.

July 07, 2023, 06:04:27 PM
I'm glad I didn't lock up the thread. I've missed reporting a very important function if you've configured Electrum EPS, Electrum wallet & Bitcoin Core QT together. You'll enjoy a watch-only tool in Bitcoin Core wallet showing combined balances of MPKs you've inserted to config.ini in EPS. Don't forget to select settings>>options>>enable rpc server.
You've got your Bitcoin Core balance next to watch-only balances. Recent transactions list includes Electrum watch-only incoming transactions. You'll be able to manage finances with comfort. If you're running your own Bitcoin Core node you can't gain more for privacy if you use localhost, EPS, Electrum Wallet and Tor.
July 06, 2023, 02:06:20 PM
Thanks o_e_l_e_o for amazing free advice. It's running now without complaints.
I don't have Tor connectivity problems. My Electrum wallet's loaded on Tor over Electrum Personal Server. My Bitcore Core's running on my localhost set. Bitcoin Core doesn't broadcast transactions with walletbroadcast=0 inserted so it's functioning as I wanted on my Windows without drawbacks.
It's another fun & learning completed. I'm keeping the thread open to answer questions but I'll lock soon.

I've added walletbroadcast=0 to .conf but Bitcoin Core's generated a notification in the corner of my screen.
The usual notification about a transaction affecting one of your addresses? This shows up regardless of where the transaction came from.How can I check 100% it didn't broadcast to other btc nodes?
I suppose the easiest way to do this would be before you make your next transaction, click the network activity icon at the bottom right of the Bitcoin Core GUI and select "Disable network activity". Once Core has disconnected, broadcast your transaction via Electrum, EPS should broadcast it via Tor, and then check that it can be viewed on a block explorer. July 03, 2023, 04:17:41 AM

When EPS displays 127.0.0.1 it doesn't mean it's broadcasted localhost it's going to broadcast your ip address that's important for learning about broadcasts. Thanks I've changed tor-or-own-node to tor so EPS should've been configured in secure levels.

That transaction broadcast through Tor as it says, so whichever nodes it connected to will have seen your Tor IP address.
However, it still says it is using tor-or-own-node, so if Tor fails it will fall back on broadcasting via your node. If you don't want this, you'll need to check the config.ini file again to see why it isn't using Tor only as described above.

When I'm using my Electrum Wallet, EPS & Bitcoin Core is my privacy less secure if I didn't use vpn or tor for broadcasts ?
Yes. An attacker could potentially link your transactions to your IP address. See here for more info: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Privacy#Tor_and_tor_broadcastingI've used these configs
Bitcoin Core .conf
Code:
rpcuser=username
rpcpassword=password
walletbroadcast=0
rpcpassword=password
walletbroadcast=0
EPS config.ini
Code:
broadcast_method = tor
To avoid this, you can either run your node via Tor, or you can choose to run your node via clearnet but broadcast your transactions via Tor. For this second option, you need to do two things:
1 - Add walletbroadcast=0 to your bitcoin.conf file. This will stop your node from broadcasting your own transactions.
2 - In your EPS config.ini file, navigate to where it says broadcast_method = tor-or-own-node and change it to broadcast_method = tor.
Any transactions you make via Electrum via EPS will now be broadcast to random nodes over Tor only.
So Bitcoin Core broadcasts jointly with Electrum. I've understood walletbroadcast=0 stops my node from broadcasting my own transactions so Electrum's going to do it with 127.0.0.1, 50002 or 127.0.0.1, 9150 on tor. That's helpful advice. 1 - Add walletbroadcast=0 to your bitcoin.conf file. This will stop your node from broadcasting your own transactions.
2 - In your EPS config.ini file, navigate to where it says broadcast_method = tor-or-own-node and change it to broadcast_method = tor.
Any transactions you make via Electrum via EPS will now be broadcast to random nodes over Tor only.
I'm firm my IP address wasn't leaked in Electrum it's localhost so stopping Bitcore Core from broadcasting transactions stops leaks. I'll post after it's been tested.

I've read you don't have to run Electrum over tor in localhost because it doesn't increase privacy. I've opened my tor browser before starting Electrum so the connection indicator's turned blue.

It wasn't working before because they'd expired. I've downloaded OpenSSL binaries to generate new cert & key so it's running satisfactorily. I'm using Bitcoin Core, Electrum EPS & Electrum 4.4.4 on the same SSD. My Electrum wallet network connects singularly on 1 node to localhost so it doesn't connect with available electrum servers online.
Thanks for replies I've had fun learning new thingsso locking the thread keeping thread open to answer questions if you're trying the same.

I didn't have time to try that solution because I don't use OpenSSL. It'll be fun solving it this weekend days. Official Electrum doc guides the client only connects to servers over SSL so to continue with EPS experiments on Win 11 I'll generate self-signed certs & keys. Thanks
Have you tried if this can solve it?

Are you running Electrum Personal Server inside the virtual machine? Or something else (or both)? If the answer to any of these questions is "yes", you ought to set up bridged networking and have the server listen on an interface like 192.168.*.* instead so you can connect through that.
I've uninstalled Virtualbox so running Electrum and Bitcoin on Windows 11. I suggest enable the debug log in your Electrum wallet to troubleshoot the issue you can enable it under tools> preferences> Misc then click write logs to file. Restart Electrum and try to connect again on that IP:Port.
If the above suggestion does not work maybe you are using an old version of the EPS I heard someone fix their issue by upgrading it to the latest version according to this link below or switch to ElectrumX.

I'm using their latest Release v0.2.4. Thanks I'll check the Electrum wallet log because there's a reason why it isn't connected.

I've tested Virtualbox with Linux Mint & Bitcoin on Windows 11 but didn't want to connect SSD in external USB so uninstalled it.
I love learning about bitcoin so in my next fun & learning I've ran Bitcoin Core 25.0 QT with Electrum Personal Server on Windows 11. I'm using full blockchain on Bitcoin QT wallet with Electrum Personal Server faultlessly. The command prompt shows it's connected it shows the first addresses from the MPK. I had to make changes so it's functioning now.
I've unchecked the Select server automatically box & added localhost in different configs. The network alert in Electrum desktop wallet isn't green it resides red meaning it isn't connected to Electrum Personal Server.
localhost:50002
localhost
127.0.0.1:50002
127.0.0.1
I'm stuck because I can't make Electrum desktop wallet work on localhost it doesn't connect. Bitcoin Core is working & Electrum Personal Server is connected to Bitcoin I don't know what I'm doing wrong. If you've worked Electrum EPS, Electrum wallet & Bitcoin Core QT on Windows flawlessly please tell me how your configurations are set.
