Ok. It could be possible your tor installation was somehow corrupted. Try completely uninstalling tor with this command
As root: apt-get remove tor This should completely uninstall tor I am saying this as it could be that somehow one of your tor files was accidentally deted or moved. Doing this will unfortunately mean that you will have to go through these steps again 1. In the terminal root window type “apt install tor”. This will tell Linux to install the tor relay packages. 2. In the root terminal window, type “gedit /etc/tor/torrc” This sould open the file so you can add the bridge configuration. 3. If Linux yells at you for trying to install unrecognized packages in installing tor, do the following things listed here: https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en Please, I would ask, run pluggable transport bridge as opposed to a vanilla bridge (which is what your setting up), as pluggable transport bridges are more difficult to detect for network censors. Find how to do that here: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/PluggableTransports/obfs4prox Let me know how it goes. Cheers.

That is what is odd as I only install things from root and use them as a user. Rob
