Testing checkbox 013.9, here's what I did: 1- With checkbox 0.13.7 installed, ran:
http_proxy='http://whatever.com: text' /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/network_check Result: Error trace as seen in the original report. 2- With checkbox 0.13.7 installed, ran: http_proxy='http://gamerunblock.com' /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/network_check Result: OOPS, a gtk window saying failed to connect. This is because the script points to an invalid URL. 3- Checkbox 0.13.7, manually modified the script to point to a valid URL, ran : http_proxy='http://gamerunblock.com' /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/network_check Result: HTTP Connection: success So the bad behavior in item 1 was observed. Now, with checkbox 013.9: 1- With checkbox 0.13.9 installed, ran: http_proxy='http://whatever.com: text' /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/network_check Result: GTK window saying HTTP connection: Failed. (THIS is the fix in action, so it works, yay!) 2- With checkbox 0.13.9 installed, ran: http_proxy='http://gamerunblock.com' /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/network_check Result: OOPS, a gtk window saying failed to connect. This is because the script points to an invalid URL. 3- Checkbox 0.13.9, manually modified the script to point to a valid URL, ran : http_proxy='http://gamerunblock.com' /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/network_check Result: HTTP Connection: success So the proposed fix is working as expected. I'll set to verification- done. ** Tags removed: verification-needed ** Tags added: verification-done -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/751701 Title: network_check crashed with InvalidURL in _set_hostport(): nonnumeric port: ' text' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/checkbox/+bug/751701/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
