I am trying to use Whonix Gateway 13.0.0.1.1 in an VM, but I couldn’t get it working.
The settings are default. I always get this error after WhonixCheck:
Does anyone know a solution?
This is really frustrating.
Thanks.
Please answer the questions asked in that screenshot as well as try the recommendations listed there.
Hi,
Hosts internet is working.
I live in middle europe, normally there is nothing censored.
I found out that it could be in a relationship with the clock???
Thanks.
( https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Tor_Controller#Arm_FAQ )
Yes. Host clock must be reasonable correct. (Up to +/- inaccuracy is not great but should still work.)
Is your host clock reasonable correct?
The clock of the host and of whonix are now nearly perfect equal.
But it didn’t change anything. I still get the same error.
The hosts (Windows 10) clock is set over Microsoft’s time server.
Does Tor’s log show anything interesting? ( https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Tor#Log_Analysis )
Does user clearnet have working internet connection? You can check that as per:
https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Troubleshooting#As_user_clearnet
If not, can you try please if other non-Whonix VMs (such as Debian jessie) have working internet?
The log since the last boot shows this:
When I tried a connection to check.torproject.org nothing happened (is there even a timeout?).
Removing write protection from /etc/resolv.conf gave the error “Operation not supportet while reading flags on /etc/resolv.conf”.
Restarting networking gave the error “Could not find the database of available in /usr/sbin/service”.
The nameserver of /etc/resolv.conf isn’t 10.0.2.2, it’s 127.0.0.1 for me (localhost).
The dns lookup for google timed out.
So far:
Determine if it’s a Virtualbox-related issue or a Whonix-Gateway issue:
Also, are you sure you didn’t change the VM network settings in Virtualbox? Is Whonix-Gateway set to NAT on eth0?
Actually instructions could not work as they were. Updated now. https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Troubleshooting#As_user_clearnet
(chattr, service requires sudo.) Please try again.
VirtualBox settings are all default. And yes, its NAT on eth0.
Even wih a sudo at the chattr command I get the error:
“chattr: Operation not supported while reading flags on /etc/resolv.conf”
I already imported the .ova file mutiple times, it’s not working on any machine.
These instructions are problematic.
This command doesn’t rely on dns:
UWT_DEV_PASSTHROUGH=1 curl --tlsv1.2 --proto =https -H 'Host: check.torproject.org' -k https://138.201.14.212
If it doesn’t work, then you have no TCP connectivity in your Gateway VM.
You need to install a non-Whonix VM - linux, windows, etc - and see if networking works in virtualbox at all. No point discussing further until you do this.
Right. Removed chattr and resolv.conf editing. Only left the check.torproject.org curl tcp-only connectivity test.
Result:
curl: (7) Failed to connect to 138.201.14.212 port 443: No route to host
I have multiple other VM’s, like Windows 7, Ubuntu and Linux Mint. Every machine has a working internet connection when set to NAT on eth0.
It’s just the Whonix-VM which won’t work.
The network adapters are activated.
You must enter command as user clearnet.
sudo su clearnet
then try curl again.
It should work if your other Virtualbox VMs have connectivity.
If it’s successful, open a terminal and type whonixcheck. If whonixcheck times out after 2 minutes, do it again.
Simplified that a bit more. Actually, there is no need for “sudo su clearnet”. Can be one line.
@Gaghunfv2 please try the following command.
sudo -u clearnet UWT_DEV_PASSTHROUGH=1 curl --tlsv1.2 --proto =https -H 'Host: check.torproject.org' -k https://138.201.14.212Hi,
i tried the command.
After I press Enter, I get the following:
curl: (7) Failed to connect to 138.201.14.212 port 443: Connection timed out
