Proxy settings of chrome or chromium don't take effect

I'm using archlinux+kdemod 4.5.
The proxy setting of all versions of chrome or chromium seems not to take effect because my ip address doesn't change(http://www.ip-adress.com/) .
I also tried swithcy! proxy but it doesn't help.
However, starting the chrome with "--proxy-server=ip:port" can enable the proxy.
any ideas?
thx~

My reviews don't take effect in the iTunes store.

My issue is with leaving reviews. Mine don't seem to take effect in the iTunes store.
This is the most explicit example I got : When I try to edit a review that I know I posted, I have literally nothing, instead of my previous review. It's like I never reviewed the article. It's like this for every article: apps, music, movies or TV Shows ...
Of course I don't find my review if I search for it manually.
Sincerely.

iTunes store support is taking care of the problem, thank you.

Group dock settings in WGM don't take effect

Hi,
when I change the settings for the dock in a group, users logging in still get what they had before. I set it to always manage this setting.
I've tried both adding it to their dock and not, nothing works. Is there a secret "Apply now" button somewhere?
Clients and Server are 10.4.6.
Any hints would be appreciated.
Torsten
This quote from the manual does not prove true for me: "You can update a computer’s managed preference cache regularly. The computer checks the server for updated preferences according to the schedule you set. The cache is also updated automatically every time a change is made to any of the managed preferences within Workgroup Manager." Rebooting doesn't do the trick either.

Keep in mind that there are Dock settings at the Computer level, at the Group level, and at the individual User level. The system will try to combine them in a reasonable way.
If a setting for each User is managed always, group settings will have little or no effect.

Theme changes don´t take effect

Hi,
I recently wondered why the theme of my LXDE installations doesn´t really look good:
http://upload.worldofplayers.de/files10/lxde.jpg
Particulary, Midori is rather ugly:
However, other screenshots of LXDE proove that it can look much better:
https://wiki.installgentoo.com/images/1 … t_LXDE.png
Sometimes Midori looks really nice, for instance in this screenshot:
http://midori-browser.org/images/screen … ressed.png
In order to change the appearance, I´ve already installed gtk-engines. Now I have several themes like Clearlooks at choice in LXAppearance. Unfortunately, clicking the apply-button doesn´t affect the appearance, neither the preview window.
What´s going wrong?
Please excuse linguistic mistakes, i´m from Germany.
Thanks!

Changes in iAS6.5's web.xml don't take effect

After the cust deployed his application he modified some parameters in
the web.xml file of his application. He then restarted the application
server after but the changes didn't take effect. Is this the
expected behavior as they would need to custom web.xml
and expand the war file before deploying to see the changes reflected in the
pages because changing those after deployment doesn't work.
Thanks for your help,
Gaetan

In response to author 97:
are made in the registry during the deployment processI tried redeploying a sample web application using <init-param> and cannot find a trace of the newly referenced variable.
Could you indicate in which regitry path should it be found?

How to use proxy settings for one website

Hello,
I have to access the only one website using Proxy settings and for others I don't need proxy to access. Is there a way to configure the internet settings to allow one website using Proxy... Please advise. Thanks!
Regards,
Aravin S

I am also getting this "error". The printer (8500 A910) connected to the web well enough that it went out and supposedly downloaded a new update, but then it was supposed to print a page showing the email address, but did not.
So I go in and try to set up the eprint, and it tells me it cannot connect to the sever and I'll need to enter a proxy address and port number. But my ISP's cable modems do NOT have any static IP address nor do they provide any sort of proxy service. Everything works just fine with "automatic discovery" (DHCP) for every computer in the house. No problems there.
So, since that's the case, of course I cannot look up some proxy address and port number in my web browser because they're all set up for "automatically detect settings".
What's baffling is that the printer connected to something at HP to download the "update", and it went through a process that appeared to be what I'd expect it to do if it was updating its firmware. But it won't connect to whatever it's supposed to connect to to have an email address assigned.
Does HP supply a proxy server? If so, what's its IP address or URL, and what port should a person set the printer to try to use?
UPDATE:
It appears that the HP site must have just been "down" for about six or seven hours while I was trying to get the printer to connect because it now connected and I got an email address asigned without needing to have any "proxy" stuff set up at all. It's a shame that the printer does not simply report "HP Site down - try again later" instead of reporting that you need to use a proxy when that's impossible.
"Now, on to the next problem which is that my emails to the assigned address are all bouncing with a "550 5.7.1 Command rejected" error!

Proxy Settings Re-Appear after Reboot in Registry Post Malware Clean (Windows 8.1 x64)

Hey Guys -
My main system at home hosts many different things for me. Because I'm an idiot and had protection disabled, I caught some malware which I cleaned off soon
afterwards. The malware was listed as Trojan.Generic.KD or something similar. It had enabled Proxy and set it to 127.0.0.1:58054. I ran Malwarebytes, Spybot, then ExecuteIt to clean the malware off and currently the scans from all 3 apps
come back clean. I also had to manually disable proxy via IE settings.
I have one specific app which for whatever reason will use Proxy settings if they are there over anything else and doesn't offer and configuration to disable it.
Even though proxy is disabled (and cleared) in IE, this app still doesn't work and I still seemingly get redirected to ads in Chrome sometimes. The log file of the app showed it was trying to connect through 127.0.0.1:58054. The thing is,
IE Settings still show Proxy disabled!
The Issue
I checked many things are read a few articles to try to fix this including different Windows 8.1 settings, local Group Policy, startup items, checking Run keys
in HKLM and HKCU for "out of place" entries, and more. Finally, I opened the registry and did s keyword search for ":58054" and found one key with it. I cleared out all of the data and set the EnableProxy string from "1"
to "0", rebooted, and tried again but the app still failed with the same log message. I went back into the registry and found out that the strings I changed had all been changed back! Below is the key / strings I'm talking about which
are located in HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings. It's odd because I usually deal with HKLM and HKCU and don't think I've ever worked in ".DEFAULT" on any system ever before.
I know that a full OS re-install is suggested - and I actually do it every 3-4 months religiously - but - I currently don't have the time for the full day it
takes to perform due to how many things it hosts.
Any ideas on how I can get this to stop coming back after each restart until I can perform the re-install? Below are the system specs. Thanks!
System Specs
- Intel i7-3770k / 16gb RAM
- x3 partitions 256gb SSD for OS & Apps / 24tb Disk Pool for Storage / 500gb Hybrid drive for App installs

Thanks again!

Hi,
.default is the profile for the Local System account and is an alias for
HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-18, Consequently, settings in HKEY_USERS\.Default are used by programs and services that run as Local System.
In addition to HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings, please also check HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-18\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings and HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings, make sure all proxy server disabled, then press F5 to refresh registry, check the application, if the issue disappears, the the registry entry is the culprit. Then please reboot the PC, if the issue appears again, the virus is not cleared in your
system. In this case, please try other virus clean program if possible, meanwhile, check if there're unknown software installed in your system.

Firefox suddenly stopped opening webpages, while other browser work properly. I checked Proxy settings and everything that is mentioned in the central help page, but still no solution found...

In addition, i tried to re-install Firefox many times, without a result. In the time these lines are written, I am using Google Chrome to surf the web.
Neither proxy settings, nor the true/false ipV6 values helped.
The '''"symptoms"''' are as following:
--> The programm itself starts correctly, at usual speed, with no crashes or error messages to pop-up.
--> No page is displayed, neither the home page, nor any other one. I only see a blank white page.
-->The name of the starting tab, as of any other new tab I try to open is "(Untitled)"
-->There is no probability of errors in the Internet Line, because I am using it right now, running Chrome.
-->The full scan results are totally clean, using Panda Internet Security 2011, activated and updated.
-->The Error Console shows the following messages:
Could not read chrome manifest file 'C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\extensions\{972ce4c6-7e08-4474-a285-3208198ce6fd}\chrome.manifest'.

These Error messages appear in the Error Console of the just now downloaded Firefox 4.0. In the previous version, 3.6.12, before removing it, I noticed two more error messages in the error console, like the two last as listed above: With the nema ERROR.
I am forced now to use Chrome, and I dislike that!
Some could suspect that Google has sabbotaged firefox to get its popularity by forcing users to change browsing programms by giving them a hidden worm..?? :P
Please, help me out anyone with good will and strong tech-knowledge.
Tasos!

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

How can I have proxy settings stay for multiple users on an educational network?

Hi,
I want to be able to have mutlple users log onto machines and haave proxy settings already set in preferences. I have tried by copying the Mozilla folder in to the All users location and does not help.
Each user logs onto a computer with a mandatory or Roaming account depending on account security. Settings for firefox are picked up from their Documents and settings folder when they log on (It is created when they log on for the first time)
Is there a way to pull across proxy settings for a new user? Ussually it would be a case of just sticking it in All Users.
Thanks

A possibility is to create a file user.js and place that file in the default template location (defaults\pref) in the Firefox program folder.
If you don't want users to change the proxy (connection) settings then you can also lock the prefs or set a different default value.
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences
You can use these calls in mozilla.cfg to set or lock a pref:
defaultPref(); // set new default value
pref(); // set pref, but allow changes
lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes

I am on a co-orporate network, and it requires proxy to use internet to download packages for sun directly from sun machine.
What package I want to download?
I want to dowload CUPS to configure LINE PRINTER(ALIS5180).
What did i do to configure line printer?
1, i installed sun solaris 10 on a dell server to make it as a "print server"
2, with the print manager I configure "alis5180"
3, give the print command to test the printing.
4, I did not got success, coz it is not printing the document i want, it is printing junk.
5, i clear the cache of alis5180 printer.
6, reset all the emulations ANSI, IBM Proprinter III XL, Epson FX-1180, Printronix® P600 & P 5000/6000, DEC® LG01, HP 2564C, Tally line/dot matrix printer, Epson FX 1180,
MTPL, contextual arabic, Twinax (IBM 4234/4210/5225)/Coax(IBM4234), HP LineJet HPLP Series, HP 256X no success.

You could try the Dell site, but I doublt if they will have a driver for Solaris, Linux maybe but not Solaris. Otherwise try the DriverGuide web site. http://www.driverguide.com/
You could also try installing OpenSolaris if you don't specifically need Solaris 10. Better chance that OpenSolaris will support the NIC.

How Can I pre-configure the proxy settings in Acrobat 8?

We use a proxy server to authenticate users and it's causing a problem for our e-licensing. Is there a place to pre-configure the proxy settings / login and password for the e-licensing to happen quietly so our users don't have to see it?

Have you searched the forum for proxy? I do not have an answer, but this has been discussed before. I am not sure there is an answer in the discussions, but it is worth a try. There is likely a knowledgebase article on the issue also. Good luck.

Steps to apply Proxy settings for all Server in a specific OU using Group Policy ?

People,
I have several terminal server (2008 R2) running as RDSH in an OU called Terminal Servers.
So how can I create the GPO setting to make sure that everyone who login to this terminal server will be getting the proxy settings automatically to proxy.domain.com on port 3128 ?
I've created the GP object and then link it directly to the Terminal Servers OU using the following options:
User Configuration (Enabled) > Policies > Windows Settings > Internet Explorer Maintenance >
Connection/Proxy Settings > Enable proxy settings
But somehow when I login as myself and DOMAIN\Administrator the proxy settings in the IE11 is still unchecked with the old Proxy value and sometimes blank in some servers.

User policies apply to user objects - the servers will ignore them, and
as long as there is no user in your terminal servers OU, no one will get
this setting.
Link your policy to the OUs where the users are, then use item level
targeting to filter for a security group you create for this purpose,
and add all your terminal servers to this group. Don't forget to reboot
the servers after changing group memberships...

Proxy settings are not set in Active Directory
The below code works for 2003 servers and Win XP
$colItems = get-wmiobject -class "Win32_Proxy" -namespace "root\CIMV2" `

foreach ($objItem in $colItems) {
write-host "Caption: " $objItem.Caption

write-host "Proxy Port Number: " $objItem.ProxyPortNumber
write-host "Proxy Server: " $objItem.ProxyServer
write-host "Server Name: " $objItem.ServerName
write-host "Setting ID: " $objItem.SettingID
write-host
You can try checking the registry values- Works in 2008 + and Windows 7
Get-Item 'HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings'
or use netsh
netsh winhttp show proxy -r <remotemachinename>

Windows 8 and IE10 not accepting Proxy Settings via Group Policy

We have recently introduced a couple of Windows 8 computers in our network, and we are having issues applying the Internet Explorer Proxy Server settings.
We use a Microsoft TMG 2010 server as our proxy server for accessing the internet.
We have been using a GPO with the following settings to automatically configure our Windows 7 computers running IE9 with the appropriate Proxy settings:
User Configuration\Policies\Windows Settings\Internet Explorer Maintenance\Connection/Proxy Settings
“Enable Proxy Settings” : Checked
“Address of proxy” : server.domain.local
“Port” : 8080
“Use the same proxy server for all addresses” : Checked
“Exceptions” : Here we have a list of several internal or partner sites that should not be proxied.
This GPO has worked beautifully for our Windows XP and Windows 7 users with IE 7, 8 and 9.
Now with Windows 8 and IE10, this no longer works.
I’ve therefore added a Windows Server 2012 Domain Controller to the network, and using GPMC on that new DC, I created a new GPO with the following settings:
User Configuration\Preferences\Control Panel Settings\Internet Settings\Internet Explorer 10
Now, seeing as these are preferences, it’s a little different. But, I’ve “checked off” the option “Use a proxy server for your LAN” as well as “Bypass proxy server for local addresses”.
Then I click on “Advanced” and setup all my proxy settings the way I would like them, including the proxy server name, port and exceptions list.
When this new group policy gets applied to my Windows 8 PC, the only setting that gets applied is the “Use a proxy server for your LAN”.
It does not configure the name or port of the proxy server nor does it configure the exceptions list.
If I go back to the GPMC, and edit the new GPO, the settings are all there.
However, if I just view the settings from the main GPMC screen (without opening the GPO itself),
I don’t see all of those settings (again, only the one “Use a proxy server…”)
What am I missing???

Hi All, - (Revised Answer by myself)<o:p></o:p>
I banged my head against the keyboard on this one for some time trying to get this group policy to apply. I
did every thing that was suggested, learning about the F6 and F7 keys to Green underline and Red underline the options required and not required. I even gave in and used the registry settings and it still did not work. It turned out that I had
2 issues. The first one is obvious and the second not so obvious, this is how it is setup:
I have a 2012 R2 Standard DC with Windows 8.1 clients/workstations and IE 11. As you are aware you must make
sure that the following are underlined in green:
Automatically detect settings - (but not ticked)<o:p></o:p>
Use proxy server for your LAN<o:p></o:p>
Bypass Proxy for local address<o:p></o:p>
Next I made sure that the following had red dotted lines:
Address<o:p></o:p>
This still didn't work, so I went through my 'Do Not use proxy servers for addresses beginning with' removed all
of these and then re-added one by one until the problem materialized. The first issue was when using wildcards I had added an entry with the following:
http://domain.subdomain.com/*
Then caused my proxy fields not to be applied, I re-added this just with:<o:p></o:p>
http://domain.subdomain.com/
<o:p>This next one is IMPORTANT.</o:p>
I had these entries in a Word document of which I had copied and pasted from the entry box for 'Do
Not use proxy servers for addresses beginning with'. As shown in the screen shot above provided by SVEN_BURGER I had very similar entries:
http://domain.subdomain.com/;10.*.*.*;172.27.*.*;http://172.27.*.*
Each time I copied and pasted the line (+ more) above the proxy field on the Windows 8.1 client
be blank after using 'gpupdate /force' I then noticed that in my Word document the whole string was being seen as 1 URL due to the http part at the beginning, so I changed my entry to look like this:
10.*.*.*;172.27.*.*;http://172.27.*.*;http://domain.subdomain.com/
I again noticed that this section:
http://172.27.*.*;http://domain.subdomain.com/
Was being seen as one URL in my Word document. To resolve this I had to add the URL's individually and
apply and OK these before going back in and making the next entry. So I ended up adding them all individually after separating the
URL's in my Word document.
I hope this helps.
