Without seeing the actual error messages, my guess would
be that your config file references action files without
the extension and your action files use the filter-client-headers
or filter-server-headers actions which have been removed
as Privoxy now supports real header filters.

Check your configuration file for lines like:

   actionsfile default

and change them to:

   actionsfile default.action

In your configuration file remove the obsoleted actions
mentioned above. Note that this will probably take more
time than simply following the steps in:

If you never actually changed Privoxy's action files
you might as well completely deinstall Privoxy 3.0.6,
install 3.0.8 and enable Tor again:
