Setting up Web Proxy (HTTP) in Terminal

I am wondering if there is a way to set up the Web Proxy password in Terminal. Every time I try to do this in System Preferences the application crashes and the old password remains unchanged. Would be grateful for any help.

it
might be a good idea to reboot after deleting the
plist file. You didn't say you tried that.
Deletedthe plist file again, rebooted, changed the web proxy password, System Preferences crashed. I am at Square One.
Also, look in /var/log/System.log to see if there is
any information about why the crash happened.
What should I look for in the system log file? It is rather lengthy. Please advise. Do you think a regular IT guy could be of any help? Or is it so Mac-specific that our internal IT support people may not decipher?

Safari can't connect to the web proxy server (HTTP)

Hello,
I have following problem. I need to connect to the internet using a proxy server. I went to System Preferences/Network/Wi-Fi/Advanced.../Proxies. Then, I selected Web Proxy (HTTP) and enetered server's IP address and port. It looks like I did everything correctly, but Safary can't open any page because "Safari can't connect to the web proxy server (HTTP)". Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

There are three possibilities:
1. You entered the wrong address and port number for the proxy.
2. You entered the wrong user name and password, if applicable.
3. The proxy doesn't work or is incompatible.

Problem on Setting up a Reverse Proxy on Web Proxy Server 4.0.1

After you setup a reverse proxy using Web Proxy Server 4.0.1, if you get the following error --
Proxy denies fulfilling the request
Your client is not allowed to access the requested object.You probably forget to add a regular mapping from: / to: http://http.site.com/. The information provided in 4.0.1 Administration guide is misleading. You will have to add it NOW manually. (Note: in 3.6 it will be added automaticly)
You will have to do the following step manually, what provided in the manual is misleading --
Sun Java� System Web Proxy Server 4 .0.1 Administration Guide 2005Q4
Chapter 14 Using a Reverse Proxy
"Setting up a Reverse Proxy"
5. To make the change, click OK.
Once you click the OK button, the proxy server adds one or more additional
mappings. To see the mappings, click the link called View/Edit Mappings.
Additional mappings would be in the following format:
from: /
to: http://http.site.com/

thanks, will verify and update the docs.

HTTP failed - Transparent web proxy

Hello,
I developped an application with Flex 3 B1, it works at my
home but when I tried it in my office I have this type of message
sometime
code:
Channel.Call.Failed
Message:
error
Detail:
NetConnection.Call.Failed: HTTP: Failed
Sometime the application works, sometime not... I think this
is a web proxy problem. I called the person in charge of this and
for him some program cannot works with a transparent proxy.
Somebody have the same problem ?
Best regards,
Marc

Thank you Ken for you whitepaper.
I read the configuration and it is mentioned that the IronPort and clients are not on the same interface (segment). I also read that the IronPort Appliance and clients must be on the same ASA interface to avoid passing trough the ASA itself again.
Which of these two is right ?
In my architecture I'm not able to set the IronPort on the same interface as clients (2 differents interfaces and subnet).
I attached a document explaining the architecture
My bad I saw that the WSA and clients are on the same ASA interface in the inside networks. Still, in my configuration is it possible to enable WCCP ?
I also so that it is possible to implement a route-map which perfrom PBR by changing the next-hop ip for specific traffic but this function is not avalaible on ASA as i heard. Can anyone confirm that ?

Safari cannot open the page ~ The error was: "There was a problem communicating with the web proxy server (HTTP)

Help! I was cruzing along just fine and went out tonight only to receive the message above:
Cannot open Page
Safari cannot open the page
The error was: "There was a problem communicating with the web proxy server (HTTP)."
I have had all the Apple iPhone phone. Have never encountered anything like this.
All systems are GO as soon as I log on to wifi.
Can anyone help, please.

I am also fixed. I also loaded Onavo, but that was the other day ... this is what I did with the help of online chat with AT&T ...
I went to:
Settings
Wifi
I selected the network I was working on by hitting the blue arrow located on right side
At the detail page of that network I scolled down to the bottom to find HTTP Proxy boxes
I was on Off and changed it to Auto and it worked!
I was soo jazzed!!
Instructions said if it was already on AUTO, to change it to Manual and make your Port = 80 but I didn't have to do that!
YIPPIE!! I'm a new man!!
Go to settings -----> WI-FI -----> select the network you're using ------> hit the blue arrow located on the right-side of the network name (ie: show details of that network), this takes you to another page.
--------> at the bottom of the page you'll see "HTTP Proxy" boxes (located below the "renew lease" button) ---------------> change the proxy to AUTO. Note: if you're already at AUTO, change it to "Manual" and make your Port = 80.

How do I set up Mozilla to accept connections on port "The World Wide Web service (HTTP)"?

When attempting to embed a video in PowerPoint 2013, the message "Sorry we are having some temporary service issues" appears.
In researching the problem at Microsoft. com, the following message was received: Mozilla is not set up to accept connections on port "The World Wide Web service (HTTP)."

Hmm... PowerPoint should use Windows to connect to the internet and not Firefox.
Which method are you using?
(1) Insert > Video > Online Video
Apparently there was an update this month that enables this, as described in this support post (see top Answer just after the question): [http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2013_release-powerpoint/embedding-online-you-tube-video-in-powerpoint-2013/0bc00dde-420c-4c6a-bd47-3fb105ce40fc Embedding online you tube video in powerpoint 2013 - Microsoft Community]

IPlanet Sun ONE Web Proxy Server 3.6 SP6 terminating

I have a problem with my proxy server server.
I use iPlanet Sun ONE Web Proxy Server 3.6 SP6
It is terminating and the service is restarting. This happens about 10-15 times a day. The message I get from the log is :
[22/Mar/2005:09:29:30] info: server terminating... each time it terminates.
I know for sure that this is no hardware issue (as I have changed the hard disk recently). My OS is win2000 server SP4 + all released patches from MS.
Also I have reinstalled the OS several times (clean install after format) and I got the same result.
Also I tried to use the proxy with/without LDAP server for authentication - the same.
Any suggestions/recommendations are mostly welcome.
Thanks in advance,
Kaloyan

Dear Kaloyan,
Migration to another proxy (e.g. ISA) seems to be quickest solution for your problem, as WebProxy doesn't work well on w2k platform.

Hi,
According to the log, it seems that TMG firewall denied the request and replied with an HTTP 407 response, indicating that proxy authentication was required. This was done because the Forefront TMG firewall did not have any access rules which would allow
the anonymous request. Please check if you have configured related access rules.
When did you recieve this log? Is there anyting wrong? Which authentication method you have used, Kerberos, NTLM or other?
It seems that each time a web proxy client requests a resource through a Forefront TMG firewall that requires NTLM authentication the client is actually denied twice during the transaction before being successfully authenticated and allowed access. When
the Forefront TMG firewall is configured to use Kerberos there is only a single denied request and HTTP 407 response and then contact a domain controller and obtain a Kerberos ticket to present to the TMG firewall to gain access to the resource.
If you configured the TMG clients with a certain proxy name, please make sure you typed the TMG's domain computer name only (not IP address nor alias).
Best regards,
Susie

Http web proxy doesn't work after iOS 8.0 upgrade

Ever since the iOS 8.0.2 update my iphone 4 will not update any of my apps. I have 12 apps stuck on updates. Is anyone listening at Apple?

Server https-WEB: CORE0125 The server terminated abnormally with error code

"Server https-WEB: CORE0125 The server terminated abnormally with error code 0, An attempt will be made to restart it. "
This happens every time I reboot the server or logoff. It has no ill effect on the server itself except generating these event log errors I am using Sun One 6.1 SP 1 on a wondows 2003 server. I have to resolve this beofore I can go any furthur in my project. Any help? This error comes up for both the web servive and the admin service.

Thanks to a post I just discovered, I have solved this problem.
The JVM within Sun Web Server is accepting kill signals from Windows when users logoff. When the JVM dies, apparently the web server service just dies as well. It's a long story and I don't really care to understand it fully.
You can refer to the thread I found for the solution of passing the JVM a startup option to ignore these signals.
http://swforum.sun.com/jive/thread.jspa?forumID=16&threadID=23382
Or, you can just disable the JVM completely as I did. Though there is a checkbox for this for user-defined servers under the Java tab. I couldn't find where to do this for the admin server itself, so I commented out the line in magnus.conf that loads j2ee-plugin.dll.
We'll see if this causes any other problems, but so far so good.

Steps to enable Web Proxy for https

I have an S160 WSA and want to enable the Web service for http and https. I am using transparent mode with WCCP.
This is part of the router configuration:
ACL:
access-list 110 permit tcp 192.168.80.0 0.0.7.255 any eq 80
access-list 120 permit tcp 192.168.80.0 0.0.7.255 any eq 443
ip wccp 97 redirect-list 110
ip wccp 98 redirect-list 120
interface FastEthernet0/0.380
ip wccp 97 redirect in
ip wccp 98 redirect in
It is the same configuration for http and for https, but only http traffic is working. When I see the logs in the WSA, it looks like accepted connections for https.
In Security Services -> Web Proxy it is enabled, when I put the port 443, I get an https error in the end user laptop; when I dont, it keeps trying and I get a timeout.
I tried enabling https proxy but some sites (as gmail), wont work with self-generated certificates.
Would you please, list me the steps to enable Proxy services for https.
Thanks!!!
Sergio L.

Hi Sergio,
When WSA is configured as transparent proxy, it also accepts explitcit connections. So in order to test HTTPS proxy, you can configure client browser to explicitly use WSA as proxy and see if it is working before testing in transparent mode.
When WSA is used as HTTPS proxy, it uses its self-generated certificate to encrypt the connection between itself and the client browser. Since this certificate is not trusted by browser, it'll throw SSL certificate error when connecting via WSA. In order to get rid of this error, download the self-generated certificate from WSA and install it in your browser as a trusted certificate. That should resolve SSL issue with gmail also.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Chetan

Way to push the web proxy server setting on clients?

Is there a way I can push the webserver proxy ip address on clients? I can't find much on the web on how to do this...
pure 10.6.8 with ard 3.5.1 environment
Any help is appreciated...

Hi
Launch Apple Remote Desktop, select desired workstations, click the UNIX Icon, click on the Template option, click on None and from the Pop-up Menu scroll to Network Setup > Web Proxy.
The command should look something like this:
networksetup -setwebproxy Ethernet 10.10.10.10 8080
Obviously change the example IP address and port number to suit. Make sure you send the command as root.
HTH?

How to configure firefox 3.6 proxy through ssh terminal on ubuntu 8.04

I am trying to configure Firefox proxy through an ssh terminal (putty) on Ubuntu 8.04. There in no GUI for the terminal, so am using xvfb to simulate the display. However Firefox cannot open any website because the proxy is not set correctly
Here's what I tried.Edited a loadcustom.js file in
/usr/lib/firefox-3.6x/defaults/prefs
and added the lines
// tell firefox to load customized config file
pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0);
pref("general.config.filename", "firefox.cfg");
Then created a firefox.cfg file in
/usr/lib/firefox3.6x and added the lines
// Lock specific preferences in Firefox so that users cannot edit them
lockPref("app.update.enabled", false);
lockPref("network.proxy.http", "my-proxy.in-my-domain.com");
lockPref("network.proxy.http_port", 8080);
lockPref("network.proxy.type", 1);
lockPref("network.proxy.no_proxies_on", "localhost, 127.0.0.1, 192.168.1.0/24");
lockPref("network.proxy.share_proxy_settings", true);
lockPref("browser.startup.homepage", "http://www.google.com/");
This did not work for me. Any suggestions?

Never mind. I got it working now, I was editing at the wrong place I guess.
I had to add the settings in /usr/lib/firefox-3.6.17/defaults/pref/firefox.js and then restart Firefox. Here's what I added
pref("network.proxy.type", 4); to have Firefox auto-detect proxy settings.
