Assuming that you are able to get throught the proxy using your browser, then we should focus on the name of the environment variable and the value set for it.
On both my windows sytem and my Unix (solaris) system, I use: http_proxy=http://myproxy.domain.foo:80 You will need to set replace "myproxy.domain.foo" with the name of your proxy server. The ":80" after it specifies the port that the proxy listens on. Note the lowercase letters used for the environment variable "http_proxy". This may (or may not) be important on your system -- I think Win32 systems tend to ignore casing but not sure. Make sure that your proxy environment variables are indeed set by typing this at the command prompt (if not maybe you forgot to "export" them): set Anyway, some ideas to look at. May not help depending on your situation. -- Mike Arms > -----Original Message----- > From: Furioli Giancarlo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, December 12, 2003 11:51 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: R: Perl commands and Proxy servers (DPR#67741) > Importance: High > > > > I've downloaded ActivePerl-5.8.0.806-MSWin32-x86.zip and I've > installed it on my PC WinNT4.0. > I've installed http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/Crypt-SSLeay.ppd > No problem until last week. > > Last week my company installed an Apache/1.3.26 proxy server > on our LAN. > Now it's impossible to contact a web site with a perl command using = > HTTPS protocol. > If I use a browser I havn't any problem: I can send my > user-login and my = > password to proxy with browser's command before contacting any site. > I set the system's variables HTTP_proxy, HTTP_proxy_user, = > HTTP_proxy_pass according hand-book instructions, but that not works. > I also tried to set HTTPS_proxy, HTTPS_proxy_user, HTTPS_proxy_pass = > (this is not written on hand-book) but not works too. > > Is there any perl-package to install before to execute my > perl command? = > Where can I find it ? > It is any step to do on our proxy ?=20 > > Could you help me ? > > Thank-you. > > Best regards. > > G.Furioli _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
