I am connected to the Ubuntu server and get a meterpreter session
but cant configure MSF’s SOCKS Proxy

Never mind again i fixed it with adding one more port to SOCKs configuration and use it for metasploit socks proxy

you just need to change the SRVPORT 9050 , then do the same in proxychains.conf
