There was no problem with the settings file here before. That was writable by the web UI, but they have just not been written to torrc.
I would question if we need to have write permissions for the tor user to the settings file.
Should it not be the other way around where the file is being owned by nobody, and tor can read it? Why does tor need to modify its own configuration file?
Best,
