Whonix->Tor->Proxy->internetoftubes help

So I’ve tried following the guide Connecting to Tor before a Proxy but I haven’t managed to tunnel the proxy it seems that I’m always using tor to connect, for now I’ve tried the easy FoxyProxy method and the proxychains method keep getting random ip’s and not the socks 5 proxy I wanted,what could be the issue?

Will edit and improve tomorrow morning, thank you for now.

proxychains, see this thread please:

Testing out everything from the link and all possibilities will come back afterwards thank you angel Patrick!

While testing i found that this command isn’t working
whonix.org/wiki/Tunnels/Connecting_to_Tor_before_a_proxy#Tor_Browser_Example

uwt -t 5 -i 10.152.152.10 -p 9153 ~/tor-browser_en-US/App/Firefox/firefox --profile ~/tor-browser_en-US/Data/profile
UWT ERROR: command is missing.

another, why did i got this on su mode

kdesudo kwrite /etc/uwt.d/50_user.conf
No protocol specified
kdesudo: cannot connect to X server :0

Would these instructions still work if one removed Tor Browser proxy settings first
( Tor Browser Essentials )
and then combined these instructions with the Tor Browser change proxy settings instructions
( Tor Browser Essentials )
?

Technically when you install foxyproxy you “patch” the original default proxy and its settings and apply a new advanced configuration instead.

Yes, but would it be wrong to apply Tor Browser Essentials first before that?

I just remembered from reading over the local connection section.

Web HTTP(S)/SOCKS proxies have different instructions and will not work with these steps, see Tor Browser Proxy Configuration.

FoxyProxy is the only way to use external proxies in TBB.
