im havin a Wickr in Whonix nightmare - any help appreciated

i had a load of people ask me if i was on wickr so decided to get it set up.

i am not prepared to install it on my phone and i will only use it if i can get it routed through tor.

i must have spent at least 18 hours tryin to get it to work in whonix over the last week and im pretty much on the brink of givin up

i must be missin somethin fuckin obvious somehwere but i cant for the life of me work out what im doin wrong

ive followed the instsructions here ( thanks u/lovelylittlegangster ):

https://www.reddit.com/r/DNMUK/comments/6ssjdg/wickr/dlfqrer/

ive got wickr to install and open but hit a problem when i run it

"network connectivity error: please check your internet access"

konsole says

qcoreapplication: : postevent: unexpected null receiver

could not initialize opengl for rasterglsurface, reverting to rastersurface

ive tried using

windows 7 / virtualbox / whonix

ubuntu / virtualbox / whonix

xubuntu / virtualbox / whonix

qubes / whonix

in each set up ive got the whonix gateway running, i have downlaoded the tor browswer and can access tor via that everything has been updated using sudo apt-get

ive even had OB2 runnign in the same vm and connecting via tor succesfulluy but wickr just wont fuckin co-operate.

is there somethign really obvious that i just cant see

can anyone out there help?

In Qubes download the debian template, set it to only use sys-whonix for networking, update it to debian 9 and then clone a VM to use for wickr only. Set that to only use sys-whonix as well and it should work fine. The best part about Qubes is that you aren't just stuck with the tools included with TAILS or whonix workstation.
