Hi,

What is the command to launch an Linux Appimage of Electrum 4 to connect directly to my our node (on Tor) ? 
Here's what I've tried which used to work but not anymore (i.e.: the network connection remains "red" and doesnt turn "blue):     
"./electrum-4.0.0b0-x86_64.AppImage -1 -s mynodeaddress.onion:50001:t -p socks5:localhost:9050"   

Thanks

Do you have access to your tor node, can you try running netstat - rn to check the port's open (the one you're trying to make the first hop to).

You could also try proxying to 9150 instead of 9050 (port wise) mine switched - probably due to another process or that port being closed - but as a 2 second task it might be worth a try...

Thanks all, found the issue and posting it here in case someone else have the same problem.
I just needed to remove that portion "-p socks5:localhost:9050"
So  the correct command line is simply:
"./electrum-4.0.0b1-x86_64.AppImage -1 -s mynodeaddress.onion:50001:t"
