Question

Hi,

Just installed 4.2.0, trying to upgrade WYSIWYG. When I press "Find More Extensions" I see that my machine is trying to reach twiki.org:80, the problem is that I'm behind a proxy so I've configured: root:/home/www/twiki/data/TWiki# grep PROXY TWikiPreferences.txt

  • Set PROXYHOST = "proxy.com"
  • Set PROXYPORT = 8080

But it still tries to go directly which is not possible.

Ideas? =)

Environment

TWiki version: TWikiRelease04x02x00
TWiki plugins: DefaultPlugin, EmptyPlugin, InterwikiPlugin
Server OS: Ubuntu 7.10
Web server: apacke2
Perl version:  
Client OS: w2k

ALERT! If you answer a question - or have a question you asked answered by someone - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status is in a drop-down list below the edit box.

You probably need to set PROXYHOST and PROXYPORT in configure. The use of TWiki preferences for security-sensitive settings is deprecated, and while it should still work, there may be some reason it doesn't in your environment.

Seems to be resolved, closing question...
