bitcoind shouldn't perform network activity if the option networkactive=0, e.g. [addrman] Selected IP:PORT from tried #34190
Description
Is there an existing issue for this?
- I have searched the existing issues
Current behaviour
There are many logs like the examples below despite networkactive=0:
2025-12-31T12:24:47Z [addrman] Selected 34.75.109.94:8333 from tried2025-12-31T12:24:47Z [tor] Error connecting to Tor control socket
2025-12-31T12:24:47Z [tor] Not connected to Tor control port 127.0.0.1:9051, retrying in 25.63 s2025-12-31T12:28:43Z [net:error] Could not get best interface for default route: Element not found. (1168)
2025-12-31T12:28:43Z [net] portmap: Could not determine IPv4 default gateway
Expected behaviour
There isn't any network activity and so no such logs.
