How to set up tor proxy

Questions
1

I tried to set tor proxy on ob2 but didn’t work for some reason.

here is how i do it…

service tor start.
add (socks5)127.0.0.1:9050 to the proxy db.

and check if it’s working.
https://api.ipify.org?format=json | ip

if I’m doing something wrong please tell me

You need to add it as socks5, by default if you don’t specify it the proxy is added as http

3

of course, I did just forget to mention it.

Which site did you check it against? Was the success key appropriate? Can you try it in the debugger and let me know the error it prints?

I tried it on all of them ifconfig.me, google, ipify.org…

here is the error.

is it because I use it in a docker container ?.

Ah yes most likely! You cannot access ports of the host from a docker container. If you want you can set up a docker compose with a container that acts as a tor proxy and route the traffic through there. Otherwise you should see if it’s possible to share a network with the host using docker compose. I suggest you Google a bit and find the best option to solve this.
