There is no need to manually read Tor authentication cookie file. with open(global_args.control_cookie_path, "rb") as f: cookie = f.read() python-stem can do that for us. Line ``` controller.authenticate(cookie) ``` was wrong. `controller.authenticate` does not take Syntax from manual: https://stem.torproject.org/api/connection.html#stem.connection.authenticate ``` stem.connection.authenticate(controller, password=None, chroot_path=None, protocolinfo_response=None) ```fdd71c2d
