I am getting this message beginning "Tor exited during startup.":
Attachment 42628 Someone having the same problem in Windows on StackExchange: https://tor.stackexchange.com/questions/23826/tor-exited-during-startup-on-fresh-install I use another distro family using the Ubuntu repositories where Tor Browser runs easily. Why is Ubuntu fussy? |
it is not ubuntu, but your setup. It is written: until you fix that issue it won't work
|
where did you get tor browser?
from the tor web site ? --- RECOMENDED or from the repos ? |

I probably tried two. The 1st was a standalone version. The second was from the repositories. tor dependencies:
tor browser dependencies:
The Ubuntu process is radically different than a Tor site version that runs in a distro out-of-the-box. I do not know why they do this. The browser window opens irregularly, wider than screen length before the error. Thus far I have not gotten Tor to run in Ubuntu. |
Tor is running. I suspect a Tor network error or configuration glitch on my system.
|
what i have to do is open a terminal in the tor folder/directory then run ./start-tor-browser.desktop to run tor. it does updates and such before actually going into tor.
|
why type in " ./start-tor-browser.desktop "
just double click it . |
for me clicking/double-clicking does nothing, i have to run it from the command line, idky.
