Description Florian Effenberger 2004-02-29 14:10:44 UTC
Version:           0.8.0 (using KDE KDE 3.2.0)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

I cannot get Kopete to use proxies in version 0.8.0. I'm using the ICQ plugin, my proxies have been set up correctly in the control panel, but I cannot connect.

I assume that the proxies work with other KDE applications like Konqueror and KMail. Is my assumption correct? Also, does the non-use of proxies also happen with other protocols?
Comment 2 Stefan Gehn 2004-04-09 09:27:17 UTC
Only SOCKS proxies are supported, there is no transparent proxy support for HTTP-proxies.
Comment 3 Matt Rogers 2004-04-24 18:15:50 UTC
no response to my question for 2 weeks, and the socket code for ICQ uses KExtendedSocket, which supports proxies. Not much else I can do. Please reopen if you can provide more info.
Comment 4 Florian Effenberger 2004-04-24 18:53:40 UTC
Oh, sorry, I seem to have missed that one.
Other KDE apps seem to work with proxies.
Have not tried other protocols.
Comment 5 Matt Rogers 2004-04-24 19:14:01 UTC
do you know what kind of proxy setup you have? I'll need to know this so i can set up a test environment to work in.
Comment 6 Florian Effenberger 2004-04-25 11:03:02 UTC
I have NO direct connection to the internet (except some specific mail servers I have opened in my firewall), only a proxy. Squid listens on my router on port 3128 and forwards HTTP, FTP and HTTPS requests. On http://my.router/proxy.pac I have set up a proxy.pac file for the browsers, and WPAD works as well.

Do you need anything else? Please let me know :)
Comment 7 Jason Keirstead 2004-04-25 22:29:20 UTC
That is an HTTP proxy, Kopete does not currently support HTTP proxies unless you use a third party wrapper. It was going to be built into KDE for 3.3 AFAIK.  Myself I have used httppc ( http://httppc.sourceforge.net/ ) with Kopete and it works great.
Comment 8 Florian Effenberger 2004-04-26 22:13:13 UTC
Okay, then please have a look that it'll come in 3.3.
HTTP proxies are often used, I think.

Any news on this one?
Comment 11 Florian Effenberger 2004-11-06 20:46:12 UTC
Still does not work.
Comment 12 Matt Rogers 2004-11-06 20:53:41 UTC
this bug duplicates another bug, please don't reopen it again.
