Dec 23, 2021 at 18:58 comment added Matt Groff @GerryMyerson: I'm really interested in the generalized problem, not specific to any base. Thanks for pointing that out!

Added that we're interested in the general case.
Dec 23, 2021 at 18:52 comment added Gerry Myerson "Discrete log" is relative to a base, but I don't see any mention of a base in your question.
Dec 23, 2021 at 15:28 comment added Matt Groff @Wojowu: Edited this, too. Thank you for your help!

Edited that we have the prime factorization of Euler's totient of $n$.
Dec 23, 2021 at 15:17 comment added Wojowu The order of an element of $\mathbb Z_n^\times$ is a divisior not of $n$, but of $|\mathbb Z_n^\times|=\varphi(n)$. So usually there won't be elements of order $p_x^{k_x}$.
Dec 23, 2021 at 15:11 comment added Matt Groff @Wojowu: Sorry, I edited the question to say that we have values of order $(p_x)^{k_x}$, etc.

Edited the values that we have.
Dec 23, 2021 at 15:07 comment added Wojowu What do you mean with $e^{2\pi i/p}\pmod n$? $e^{2\pi i/p}$ is a complex number, usually modulo is only considered with integers.
