Title:
Socks 4/5 proxies not working with Gwibber
Status in Gwibber:
Fix Released
Status in “gwibber” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Upon upgrade from Ubuntu 10.04 (official) to Ubuntu 10.10 (official),
I noticed that I was getting nothing showing up in my Gwibber stream.
I did a little investigation and found that I was getting the
following output when running gwibber-service:
-----------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/gwibber/microblog/network.py", line
57, in __init__
self.curl.perform()
error: (56, 'Proxy CONNECT aborted')
-----------------------------------
and this was in the log file:
-----------------------------------
2010-10-11 11:39:43,497 - Gwibber Dispatcher - ERROR - Failed to communicate
with https://api.twitter.com/1<personal stuff>
2010-10-11 11:39:43,499 - Gwibber Dispatcher - ERROR - Failed to parse the
response, error was: No JSON object could be decoded
-----------------------------------
I often use a SOCKS proxy via "ssh -D ..." and it appears that
gwibber-service was failing to connect when I would use the proxy
since it worked fine when I turned it off. It appears that [py]curl
is not correctly setting the correct proxy options with the proxy url
that is being used, in my case "socks://localhost:50001". On the plus
side, this is an easy fix. I simply set the PROXYTYPE opt to
PROXYTYPE_SOCKS4 (it also works with PROXYTYPE_SOCKS5) and everything
works perfectly, with my proxy.
I've attached a small patch that addresses this issue.
