Description Avi Alkalay 2003-04-07 16:20:35 UTC
Version:           3.1 (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    RedHat RPMs
OS:          Linux

Tried to reopen #14459 without success....

I´m using kde-redhat.sf.net KDE 3.1 RPMs, and still having problems with Socks
support.

Konqueror sometimes works, sometimes doesn´t.... Mozilla allways works.
When I put an URL in Konq, it says the kio protocol died unexpectedly.
KGet also doesn´t work with socks.

I´m using Dante socks shared libs.

Plase tell me which debug info I have to enable (kdebugdialog) to provide usefull info in this report.
Comment 1 Thiago Macieira 2003-04-07 17:10:08 UTC
How are you enabling support? Through the Control Panel configuration for proxy? 
 
You say Konqueror doesn't work, but do other programs work?  
 
 
Comment 2 Avi Alkalay 2003-04-07 17:23:10 UTC
I triyed KMail with IMAP (my socks server permits IMAP connections) access....
no success.
Using command line commands like 

    socksify wget http://bla.bla.bla

works.

I believe this is a KDE-wide problem. Not only Konqueror.
Comment 3 Thiago Macieira 2003-06-10 21:20:43 UTC
You still haven't answered my original question as to how you enabled SOCKS 
support. Are you using the socksify command or are you enabling it in the global 
configurations? 
Comment 4 Avi Alkalay 2003-06-11 01:22:46 UTC
I tried all combinations of both:

- KDE-socks
- socksify
- KDE-sock + socksify

None worked.

Again, '$ socksify telnet imap.domain.net imap' works.

For the options to take effect, you need to log out then back in again. Or, 
alternatively and more easily, kill all the ioslaves you're trying to test. 
 
Try the following command to reload ioslaves with socksify: 
	socksify kdeinit 
 
I don't see why socksify would work with one program and not other.

Comment 7 Martin Ellis 2005-01-15 16:34:43 UTC
Has this bug been fixed in 3.4?

I'm using 3.3.1 and SOCKS still doesn't work.

I spoke to Thiago some time ago about SOCKS support
when Kopete stopped working.
Since Konversation has moved to KNetwork, it has also
stopped working.

Non-KDE, and KDE apps prior to being ported to KNetwork
still work.
Comment 8 Thiago Macieira 2005-01-16 23:21:12 UTC
I will take a look, but it should be working.
Comment 9 Ismail Donmez 2005-01-21 19:25:26 UTC
This problem looks different then 52612 as Martin commented in #7 . So I am reopening this bug.
Comment 10 Ismail Donmez 2005-02-11 11:01:31 UTC
Closing as comment #7 is discussed in bug #98018.
