Can't Load Pages - Proxy PAC file stored locally

Hi folks,
I was using last Safari 2 version and recently updated to Safari 3.0.4 and 3.1 and then it was impossible to connect using my corporate VPN solution. We use Juniper Network Connect 5.5.0 solution and during connection, this software changes IE7 proxy configuration by editing PAC URL (proto=http://, when connected on corporate network) to a PAC path of a file stored locally in "...\Application Data\Juniper Networks\Network Connect 5.5.0\instantproxy.pac" (proto=file://, when abroad). When I disconnect it, it reverts the changes back to an URL address.
When I found out this, I tried to copy and paste the proxy path stored in IE7 to the Safari address bar and tried to load the file.
IE7:
+file://C:\Documents and Settings\MyName\Application Data\Juniper Networks\Network Connect 5.5.0\instantproxy.pac+
Safari transform the pasted address to:
+file:///C:/Documents%2520and%2520Settings/MyName/Application%2520Data/Juniper%25 20Networks/Network%2520Connect%25205.5.0/instantproxy.pac+
And tries to load but then I have a "Safari Can't find the file." error.
Looking back to Safari transformed address, I saw that there is "%2520" code that represents the spaces. But wait..."%20" isn't the space representative code? I think, we have a small bug here...
So I replaced "%2520" codes by "%20" and tried to load the file. As expected the file loads!!!
I reported this as a bug but I hope that someone can share some experience with Safari and|or Juniper Network Connect in order to find a workaround!!

Well without any explanation from Apple, it appears that this bug was fixed. I tested it again on Safari 5.0.4 and it's working great now.

Performance degradation when using proxy.pac file with FF ESR 31

With Bug 923458 many people complained about a performance issue compared to other browsers when a proxy.pac file is used.
The issue initially reported with the bug was resolved for ESR25 according to the statistics, but the general performance issue remained.
I had the same issue with ESR24 and ESR31.3 .
I was testing with www.bild.de.
It took about 40 seconds to load the content completely. Without the proxy.pac file it took about 10 seconds.
I added a few alerts to the pac-File in order to get logs within the console for some analyses.
I found the following:
1. the pac.file is executed for every request, no matter if the host changed or not.
With us the pac-File checks for IP-Adresses and host-names only.
It is not necessary to execute the pac file for each and every request to the same remote host.
So the question is, if we are able to disable this behaviour via about:config?
2. the content referenced by www.bild.de seems to be loaded sequentially and with a delay
The overall time consumed by the proxy.pac file executions was about 4 Seconds compared to the 40 seconds of overall load time.
So I checked the delay between executions of the pac-file and found an overall delay of 40 seconds. I expect that the delay between the calls to the pac-file is caused by the retrieval of contents from the remote host.
So why are the requests executed sequentially?
Hint: Due to the times necessary for executing the pac-file and downloading the contents from the remote host, I would expect the logs generated by my alerts to be mixed (especially if myIpAddress took 1 Second). But the log is cleanly ordered by URL. (see attachment)

Hi guigs2,
thanks for your response. As we only use myIpAddress once within our pac-File and only rely on dnsDomainIs(), ==-Comparisons and shExpMatch() and the sum of all pac-Executions was about 4 seconds compared to 40 seconds overall load time, I do not think that dns resolving is our issue.
I checked the seetings of the configuration you mentioned above. It is set to "false", so the client would try the resolve the dns names. Our admin told, that we do not use socks-Proxies, only http-Proxies.
Regarding sequential load of the contents included on www.bild.de from other web sites, I attached a screenthot.
Please note the red highlights. These show the start time in milliseconds of the pac-execution. I added this as a kind of id which represents a unique identifier together with the URL if the log items are mixed. But they are not, instead they are cleanly ordered by URL (for all 360 pac-file calls).
Moreover in the picture you can see the delay between the end of the last pac-file execution and the next one (blue timestamp in millisonds compared to the red timestamp of the next row saying "entered proxy.pac"). The delay sum up exactly to the 40 seconds the FF took to load the page completely.
Alone the fragment shown represents a delay of 630ms between the pac-file executions. If the contents would be loaded in parallel, there should be no such delay.

Proxy.PAC file not working after upgrade to 10.9.2

I have a local proxy.pac file and it was working happily before 10.9.2.
It was loaded under "Network > Proxies > Automatic Proxy Configuration" and effective for all browsers (Chrome, Safari and Firefox).
After upgrade to 10.9.2 seems like it's being totally ignored. I have a CNTLM proxy in my machine and can see the traffic coming in. Looking at logs, no traffic really comes in and all browsers try to access internet directly.
If I set the proxy.pac directly in Firefox, it works but I want all my browsers and application. I want the same functionality as of 10.9.1 and before.

I submitted a bug report to Apple. The problem is present since 10.9.2, now with 10.10 and iOS. I hope they will take this problem seriously.

Can we load and unload the files in the run time?

Can we load and unload the files in the run time?
For example there are four files named "test1.h & test1.c" and another set "test2.h & test2.c" (I attached them as attachment to this post).
test1.h contains code:
int variable; //variable declared as integer
test1.c contains code:
variable = 1; //variable assigned a value
test1.h contains code:
char *variable; //variable declared as string
test1.c contains code:
variable = "EXAMPLE"; //variable assigned a string
So here, in this case can I dynamically load / unload the first & second group of files so that the same variable name "variable" can be used both as integer and string? And if yes, how is that to be done?
Solved!

What do you mean by "dynamically"?
If you want to have a variable that either is an int or a char in the same program run, I'm afraid your only option is to define it as a variant and assign from time to time the proper data type in the variant according to some condition. Next, every time you access the variable you must firstly check which data type is stored in it, next access it in the proper way.
If on the other hand your option or to have a run in which the variable is an int, next you stop the program and in a following run it is a char, you may have it by using some appropriade preprocessor clause:
#ifdef CHAR_TYPE
#include "test1.h"; // variable defined as a char
#else
#include "test2.h"; // variable defined as int
#endif
Next, every time you want to access the variable you must proceed in the same vay:
#ifdef CHAR_TYPE
variable = "string";
#else
variable = 1;
#endif
Does it worth the effort?
Additionally, keep in mind that this "dynamical" approach can work only in the IDE, where you can properly #define your CHAR_TYPE or not depending on your wishes: when you compile the program, it will have only one #include depending on the definition of the macro.

Lync 2013 client doesn't read proxy.pac file Lync exclusions

Hi all,
I have a very annoying issue where by the Lync 2013 client ignores the proxy.pac file exclusions set below:
(host == "lync.test.domain") || (host == "lyncdiscoverinternal.test.domain") ||
(host == "lyncwacdca.test.domain") ||
(host == "lyncwacdcb.test.domain") ||
(host == "lyncwebintdca.test.domain") ||
(host == "lyncwebintdcb.test.domain")
IE is set to use automatic configuration script of
http://proxy.test.domain:8083/proxy.pac This file can be reached through and IE browser, downloaded and it's syntax read.
If I set my proxy server and exclusions manually within IE9 then they are adhered to. That is Lync 2013 is able to read.
My thinking: that some application may be iterferring with Lync 2013 getting to
http://proxy.test.domain:8083/proxy.pac or reading in the exclusions set within the file.
If I enter https://lync.test.domain into the browser URL search field I can see that it is being sent straight out to the proxy as opposed to bypassing it.
Does anyone have an example of their proxy.pac exclusion set for Lync 2013 just in case my syntax is not looking the best.
Cheers

Update to this issue - solution was to move the proxy exclusions to the top of the proxy.pac
Outcome resulted in Windows WinHTTP processing the the Lync proxy exclusions prior to the Lync.exe firing during logon. I don't believe you would see this in a typical infrastructure. Since initially looking into this issue I have been
able to show through packet traces, large periods of latency in delivery of desktop profile items due to backend profile storage issues.
In eddition this moving the exclusions to the top of the pac file I made use of substrings. I don't believe the use of substrings is any better or worst, but just easier for others to understand what the exclusion allows specifically.
Example of pac exclusion now:
if (url.substring(0,39) == "http://lyncdiscoverinternal.testdomain.") { return "DIRECT"; } //matches 31 characters including last . or period
I entered similar entries for all required exclusions. The result was Lync signing in within 6 seconds as opposed to the 40 second (through the user of legacy SRV records).

Hi there,
When I inspect your site in browser tools, I'm getting 404 errors from your page:

In general, you are correct - but also your server does need to be properly configured (and those errors above lead me to think it may not be) to serve the file types that your uploading - but it could be something else entirely. Can you zip up your composition folder, upload it to your Creative Cloud files, set it to share, and then post a link here so I can download it? If you'd rather not share it publicly, can you PM me with a link to your composition files?

How do I stop having to frequently reload proxy pac file on Windows 7?

I have recently had my laptop upgraded to Windows 7. I'm using Firefox 6.02. I use a corporate proxy.pac file. Now I find the frequently when I return to my PC it says it can't find an external web site. It's immediately fixed by reloading the proxy.pac file

We don't technically support downloading videos from Flash. RealPlayer hooks into Flash without our permission. The security mechanisms designed to prevent malware from taking over your system prevent RealPlayer from doing its thing in Chrome and Firefox. I expect that newer versions of IE will also impact RealPlayer's ability to inject themselves between Flash and the browser.
So that said, it's probably something to do with corrupted settings. You might reset IE to default.
Change or reset Internet Explorer settings - Windows Help
If that doesn't work, you can try blowing away all of the Flash stuff manually.
Before I did that, I'd make sure the filesystem is in a good state. If files are getting corrupted, there's usually an underlying cause:
Check your hard disk for errors in Windows 7
If something is corrupted, you'll probably hit something that you can't delete.

Proxy.pac file not working for using proxy for selected websites

After changing my ISP, i cant connect to Bluenest.org directly but with proxy. I can also connect by setting manual proxy server for all websites. But I dont want to do that as there is a bit security problem. I just wrote Proxy.pac files to use proxy sever for that particular website & put its location on Automatic Proxy Configuration. But its not working. I va tried with two types of .pac files. Given the code of the files below.....
First one..........
<pre><nowiki>
function FindProxyForURL(url, host)
if (shExpMatch(url, "http://bluenest.org") || localHostOrDomainIs(host, "http://www.bluenest.org"))
return "PROXY 204.45.138.4:80";
else
return "DIRECT";
</nowiki></pre>
Second one......
<pre><nowiki>function FindProxyForURL(url, host)
if(!isResolvable(host))
return "DIRECT";
return "PROXY 204.45.138.4:80";
}</nowiki></pre>
but none of them working. Please help.
Can you please tell which proxy server is fastest & safest.
Thanx in advance

I submitted a bug report to Apple. The problem is present since 10.9.2, now with 10.10 and iOS. I hope they will take this problem seriously.

Hi,
You can't do that in a simple way. You need to have a port open in the firewall, and you need to have a server process on the remote machine.

FF unable to comprehend PROXY.PAC file with IPv4 and IPv6 rules in it

My intranet setup involves users going through Squid proxy on a server discoverable by WPAD. Everything worked well until I introduced IPv6 into the network. Now I want their FFs to go IPv4 proxied and go IPv6 direct. I wrote proxy.pac ( http://pastebin.com/UFwVBzcN ) but FF8 throws "XPCSafeJSObjectWrapper is not defined" error. How can this be done?

Can't load pages in Safari 5.1 (Windows 7)

I received an auto notice to upgrade to Safari to Version 5.1 on my Dell E1505 Laptop running Windows 7. After upgrading with the Apple Software Update tool, Safari has quit working. It will not load any page and just hangs. I used the windows control panel to first "repair" Safari, no change. I uninstalled it and downloaded a fresh version from the Apple Website, no change. I removed version 5 and downloaded version 4.03. It now reports that it can't load the page because the website isn't responding. Internet Explorer works as advertised. I've reset Safari, repaired, removed, etc. Any ideas? Please don't make me go back to IE......
The PC is a Dell Inspiron E1505 Laptop with 2 GB Memory running Windows 7 with SP1.

Safari can't load pages

Every time I wake my computer from sleep mode, Safari (and every other web browser, for that matter) takes a good 2 minutes to load a page. I'm connected to a solid Wi-Fi network, and I can access the internet through other apps (I can get email, for example), but I can't load anything through Safari. The loading bar moves across about a 10th of the way, but it stops there for a long time. I have to reload the page several times for it to load anything.
I have tried clearing the cache, disabling DNS prefetching, and even reinstalling OS X Mavericks, but nothing helps. I have parental controls enabled, but with no web filtering option, so I don't see why that would affect Safari. Any help wold be appreciated!

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

How can i load Client side XML file to Table

Hi,
How can i load the all the XML files (near 10,000 files) available in client machine to the XML table .
I did try with directrory list in the Webutility demo form, but when the number of file is near to 1,500 its giving error.
Please suggest the best method to implement my requirements.
1. XML fies are in a folder in end users machine(Windows OS)
2. I need to load all the XML files to table (Oracle Database is in Unix)
I am using forms 10g
Thanks in advance.
Rizly

Hi,
What is the error you are getting when you reach 1,500 records? Can you post it? You mentioned you are using the webutil to load them. How you are loading? From the client machine you are loading to the database directly? Can you post the code you are using for that?
