Hi, I followed http://dabase.com/blog/Minimal_squid3_proxy_configuration/ to setup proxy server. I tested my proxy server with firefox with IP:127.0.0.1 and Port:3128 and it working (asking for proxy username and password).
But, i could not make http connection through proxy server requiring authentication using following python code.. ########## Python code ########## import urllib2 proxy = urllib2.ProxyHandler({'http':'http://saju:123@saju-Inspiron-N5010:3128'}) opener = urllib2.build_opener(proxy, urllib2.HTTPHandler) urllib2.install_opener(opener) conn = urllib2.urlopen('http://python.org') return_str = conn.read() print "===return_st====", return_str ==== ERROR ==== Traceback (most recent call last): File "my_proxy.py", line 6, in <module> conn = urllib2.urlopen('http://python.org') File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 127, in urlopen return _opener.open(url, data, timeout) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 407, in open response = meth(req, response) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 520, in http_response 'http', request, response, code, msg, hdrs) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 445, in error return self._call_chain(*args) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 379, in _call_chain result = func(*args) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 528, in http_error_default raise HTTPError(req.get_full_url(), code, msg, hdrs, fp) urllib2.HTTPError: HTTP Error 407: Proxy Authentication Required ########## Proxy Server Settings ########## sudo vim /etc/squid3/squid.conf ------------------------------- auth_param digest program /usr/lib/squid3/digest_pw_auth -c /etc/squid3/passwords auth_param digest realm saju-Inspiron-N5010 acl authenticated proxy_auth REQUIRED http_access allow authenticated http_port 3128 Setting up user -------------- htdigest -c /etc/squid3/passwords saju-Inspiron-N5010 saju ============================== -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
