Connecting the Torbrowser

[Watts 0]

Hi!

 

After connecting to AirVPN on Linux, I started Torbrowser as instructed at https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser.html.en under "Linux Instructions" and regardless of the AirVPN server I was connected to, inside the terminal I see a message:

 

Jan 11 *:*:*.* [notice] DisableNetwork is set. Tor will not make or accept non-control network connections. Shutting down all existing connections.

 

With this message, the Torbrowser wouldn't directly connect. After closing and restarting the Torbrowser and then selecting a pluggable transport prior to actually connecting to Tor, the Torbrowser worked OK.

 

Will someone discuss/explain this?

 

Thanks

Looks like it was fixed in later TBB releases.

I just now saw this post. I have a little trouble now and then but not all the time. Will check into it.
