The gateway I’ve been using won’t connect to Tor. I decided to import the ova all over again and start from scratch (and use a brand new gateway), and the brand new gateway has the same error message as the old gateway. This is the error message I keep getting:
[ERROR] [whonixcheck] check network interfaces Result: network interface eth0 not up!
Recommendation:
Try to manually start Whonix networking
sudo systemctl restart networking
Or reboot.
Debugging information:
Command cat /sys/class/net/eth0/carrier failed
I don’t know what any of this means, and I don’t know why it keeps appearing, even when I use a brand new (newly-imported) gateway that has never been used before. I can’t figure out how to connect to Tor on any gateway. I’ve tried for hours to connect and I always get this error message.
In addition, I have been getting the following error message:
[ERROR] [whonixcheck] Tor Connection Result:
Tor’s Control Port could not be reached!
Please report this Whonix bug!
(Technical information:)
(tor_circuit-established_check_exit_code: 277)
(tor_bootstrap_timeout_type: none)
(tor_bootstrap_status: NOTICE BOOTSTRAP PROGRESS=100 TAG=done SUMMARY=“Done”)
(check_socks_port_open_test: 22)
(Tor Circuit: not established)
I checked my Internet connection, and it is working (i.e. I can access the Internet on a regular non-Whonix browser).
Rebooting the gateway doesn’t seem to work – I turn it off and then on, it loads, runs whonixcheck, then gives the above two error messages.
