I just tried the https connection through a friends internet connection
which uses a transparent proxy as follows:
import urllib2
f = urllib2.urlopen('https://www.directshares.com.au/')
print f.headers
print f.read()
f.close()
This works fine. So it must be a problem with either the proxyhandler
(in Python) or our proxy server. Given that I can connect to the site
through the proxy with a web browser, it must be something to do with
my the way I have set up the proxy handler in python. I have read
multiple ways of setting up the connection, and this is the only way I
can get it to run with http:
import urllib2
proxy_info = {
'user' : 'me',
'pass' : 'password',
'host' : 'companyproxy.com.au',
'port' : 8008 }
# build a new opener that uses a proxy requiring authorization
proxy_support =
urllib2.ProxyHandler({"http":"http://%(user)s:%(pass)[EMAIL
PROTECTED](host)s:%(port)d"
% proxy_info})
opener = urllib2.build_opener(proxy_support, urllib2.HTTPHandler)
# install it
urllib2.install_opener(opener)
Is there a better way for me to do this?
