after upgrading to tor browser 9 , my TB failed to start properly just black screen and nothing else
Welcome to Whonix forums and thank you for your question!
Not clear if this can be debugged / fixed.

Use Tor Browser Downloader (by Whonix Developers) as per:

Using AppArmor?
Whonix version?
Tor Browser version?
If using AppArmor:
sudo journalctl | grep -i denied
It’s probably an issue with apparmor or firejail if you’re using those.

logs edited for making thread better look !
It says it’s being denied access to /dev/dri/ and /dev/shm/org.mozilla.ipc.* but the Tor Browser apparmor profile grants access to both of those.
Did you make any modifications to the profile?
What does running sudo aa-logprof
give you?
Output of
dpkg -l | grep torbrowser
?
I am extremly sorry i have to make another login , first one not allow to reply or post and now second one is giving error on posting that new user can only post 3 times in a topic … appology

and it start working
and
user@host:~$ sudo aa-logprof
ERROR: Values added to a non-existing variable @{HOMEDIRS}: /rw/home/ in tunables/home.d/live-mode
But things working
ii apparmor-profile-torbrowser 3:4.8-1 all AppArmor profile for The Tor Browser Bundle (TBB)
ii tb-default-browser 3:2.2-1 all Configures system to use /usr/bin/torbrowser as default browser
You probably didn’t update the apparmor profile in a while then.
This issue was fixed a while ago. You need to update.
Thanks you so much for kind help , should i update apparmor from tester repo ? or manually update all profiles
You shouldn’t use the testing repos unless you want to test new Whonix features.
Just update everything by running
sudo apt-get-update-plus dist-upgrade
wonderful support is enough reason to support and donate whonix
Thanks you brothers
It would be better to use
owner /run/user/[0-9]*/dconf/ rw,
owner /run/user/[0-9]*/dconf/** rw,
instead. It’s much more strict.
I see some denied messages too but none that prevent Tor Browser from
starting.
Did you upgrade?
I remember some listed there which should be fixed already.
