torbrowser  is already installed, and tor is running per ps -efwwll output:

__OwningControllerProcess 17511 DisableNetwork 1

but I am still getting:

Could not connect to Tor control port.

and then it aborts because it cannot connect to the tor port.

And there is a "tor network settings" banner which says:

Waiting for tor to start, but as you an see from the ps output, it is 
running.

So..... what's up with all this?
