Thanks for your reply now looks like it’s working. I had whonix Gateway on an external drive, I moved it in the internal drive and now I don’t get that error anymore.
However I get another error, I don’t know if it’s related. And this was happening before, always after the latest updates of whonix gateway. Basically it happens that often (definitely too often! Pretty much every 10 minutes) that clearnet websites are impossible to reach: “Server Not Found” error in firefox. It was happening in the past but rarely and usually using “sudo service tor restart” fixed that issue back then. Now even if I use that command several times the problem stays for like 10 to 20 minutes. Hidden service are all working up gr8, other clearnet websites sometimes work sometimes not, but the original issue stays for 10 to 20 minutes.
After this time when I press F5 again finally it starts loading the website again.
Now I wrote this just to ask: do you think it’s a whonix problem or my workstation problem (currently a windows VM machine?).
Like I said I use since forever Whonix Gateway + windows without issues so these are new problems with latest updates… what can I do? Of course it happens even after downloading/re-install whonix gateway
