[sorry if this is received twice; I originally sent it before I received my list membership confirmation, so I think the original was discarded]
Hello,
I'm having problems syncing with my Fossil repositories via HTTPS from
behind a proxy. I have searched the list archives and I saw a similar
topic from 2010 that did not show any possible resolution for me. As a
caveat, I profess that I am generally ignorant of the inner workings of
proxies.
I'm hosting my repositories from a CGI script on a shared host. I have
a self-signed SSL certificate for the subdomain that hosts the repos.
From home, I can sync via HTTPS without problems. However, at work I am
behind a particularly pesky proxy. Nevertheless, I can visit the repos'
web pages via HTTPS in a browser despite the proxy. Similarly, I can,
for example, from the command line use wget to fetch a file via HTTPS
From the server through the proxy, and I can confirm that it is really
going via HTTPS because it complains about my self-signed certificate.
However, when I attempt to sync my Fossil repositories, I receive the
following error:
$ fossil sync https://user:[email protected]/reponame
via proxy: http://proxy.company.com:8080
fossil: server says: 503 Service Unavailable: 0
If I set the proxy to https://proxy.company.com:8080 (probably stupid, I
know, but let's try it anyway), I get the following:
fossil: SSL: cannot connect to host proxy.company.com:8080 (unknown
protocol)
I have built Fossil myself, and I was sure to build in SSL support.
Just now I logged into another machine that I have an account on that is
not behind a firewall and I confirmed that I can clone a repository via
HTTPS, so the 503 error does not indicate some temporary failure in
service.
So, I'm at a bit of a loss on what other steps to try to get around
this. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks for your help!
