Hey everyone
I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.04 that is unable to start Tor.
Some useful output:

<and then nothing else as it hangs>
Tor fails to get beyond this message for any config I have tried (including the default). I tried replacing the systemd unit file with one of my own and was able to start Tor, however it would crash every 5 minutes (though the logs. The commands used in the systemd file and the command init.d script are both able to start Tor correctly if I run them in a TTY as I can see from a second terminal.
Is anyone else running Tor on Xenial, and if so, have they run into this problem?
Do you have apparmor installed? If so, what are the logs?
In any case, what does Tor try to do every 5 minutes? (Look at the info or debug logs.)
