How to connect to Tor from the Xfce terminal?

I made a new appvm connected to sys-whonix and it cant connect to tor from the terminal. I can’t ping anything and I also need to run a docker container through tor but I get this: [warn] Problem bootstrapping. Stuck at 10% (conn_done): Connected to a relay / [warn] 14 connections died in state handshaking (TLS) with SSL state error in HANDSHAKE
Please help me fix this!!

Check your Tor control panel in sys-whonix. It sounds like your connection is stuck at the bootstrapping phase, a common problem in my experience, especially when using Snowflake bridges. Restarting your Tor connection from the control panel should result in success after a few tries.

Narrow down the cause by seeing if sys-whonix works in another qube first.
