Subject: proxy returning empty hits only in emacs
Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2015 08:16:59 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <59042f4d-4c62-4ca9-b6c0-2d69ac414d8f@googlegroups.com> (raw)
Hi all,
I installed Debian Jessie over Ubuntu Vervet following a kernel update disaster.
However, following the change emacs (both 24.4) is unable to make use of my proxy.
I have a CNTLM proxy on localhost which does not require additional authentication, e.g.
export http_proxy=http://localhost:3128/
export https_proxy=https://localhost:3128/
export no_proxy="localhost,*.my-company.com"
export ftp_proxy=${http_proxy}
which is picked up by the X environment, and emacs appears to use it automatically because issuing a `(package-refresh-contents)` gives
Importing package-keyring.gpg...done
Using a proxy for http...
Contacting host: localhost:3128
Failed to download `gnu' archive.
Failed to download `melpa' archive.
nil
However I can't get any more debugging information than this, despite turning on (setq debug-on-error t). I'd like to know *why* it is failing so that I can fix it.
I also tried running url-copy-file:
(url-copy-file "http://google.com/" "google.html")
but this simply creates an empty file.
The proxy is working fine for everything else on the system (and, except for a few special cases, everything picks up the envvars).
I've even tried this (which is pretty pointless, because emacs is clearly using the correct proxy):
(setq url-proxy-services
'(("no_proxy" . "^\\(localhost\\|10.*\\)")
("http" . "localhost:3128")
("https" . "localhost:3128")))
as expected, it changes nothing.
Is there something else I'm missing?
Best regards,
Sam
