Another symptom is that  in  anon-whonix  NOR whonix-ws-14   , there is
no  whonixcheck  available

strange

sys-whonix-14   has whonixcheck  which seems to complete fine,  maybe
thing to do is reinstall   whonix-ws-14   at this stage ??

Just to be absolutely clear, I meant that commenting out the onion server in 
whonix.list fixed the updating problem, not any of the other ones.

Thanks for the link! I did what they advised and the Workstation-14 TemplateVM 
seems to have updated fine.

However, the most serious issues remain.

I am still unable to access the internet from any of my Workstation-based 
AppVMs. Here’s what happens:

When I first open the Tor Browser, I receive a warning that my activities may 
be linked if the Tor Browser is already running. I have gotten this sort of 
warning in the past when I already have an instance of the TB running, but 
that’s not the case here.

I click “yes” to get rid of the warning box and the Tor Browser proceeds to 
open. The first sign that something is (still) not right is that it’s unable to 
find the local Whonix splash page file that always pops up when the browser 
first starts. Weird, but certainly not a huge issue.

Then, when I try to do a random search (I use DDG’s Onion service to conduct 
searches), I’m told that the server has reloaded while the request was being 
made (or something to that effect; it’s a super-common error message). Whatever 
the cause may be, the result is that I’m unable to visit any website; Google, 
DDG Onion, DDG Clearnet, and so on all give me the same error.

It occurred to me that this might be a Tor Browser problem, so I opened up the 
Electrum bitcoin client in the same AppVM to see if that works. Unfortunately, 
Electrum doesn’t connect either.

Then—again in the same AppVM—I open up konsole and ping google (both google.com 
and 8.8.8.8): Interestingly, when I ping google.com the terminal shows me the 
site’s corresponding numerical IPv4 address, so there must be some sort of DNS 
access, right? Anyway, aside from seeing the IPv4 address I get no feedback 
whatsoever for the next 20-30 seconds, so I finally Ctrl-C the process and see 
a packet loss of 100%.

Finally, I open Firefox in my “Untrusted” AppVM, which uses Fedora 28 as its 
template and sys-whonix as its NetVM. It takes me to Google without a hitch.

Any ideas? Is this just a bad update I’m going to have to wait out, or are 
there steps I can take to remedy the situation in the meantime?

You might have caught a bad update last week, and it sounds like one of

[qubes-users] Whonix-Workstation VM and associate AppVMs not connecting in Qubes 3.2

2018-09-29 Thread 'Setherson' via qubes-users
I am using Qubes 3.2. All TemplateVMs and dom0 have been updated sometime 
within the past week.

Since about the same time, my Workstation TemplateVM and every AppVM based on 
it has been unable to connect to the internet.

The Whonix Gateway TemplateVM works fine, as does the sys-whonix NetVM. 
Furthermore, all the AppVMs based on the Fedora and Debian templates work even 
when routed through sys-whonix. I also have all the TemplateVMs set to update 
through sys-whonix, and every one of them is able to do this with the sole 
exception of whonix-ws-14. So if I had to guess, I’d say the problem lies with
