[RESOLVED] Proxy and Extensions download

[io78]

Hi,

i am setting http_proxy but when i run AppBrowser and click 'Connect' TCL show me alert popup 'Connection error'.

I follow this steps

1 - open console
2 - export http_proxy="username:password@proxy:port"
3 - wget www.google.com => i download index.html so i supposed proxy is ok
3 - run AppBrowser from bar
4 - click Connect
5 - Popup connection error

Why AppBrowser show me connection error??

thanks

One program or window cannot alter the environment of another.
You must add your environment variables to .ashrc.
Then you must exit X and logout completely.
Log back in, and your environment variable should be set.

after doing the second thread

just logout then the commandline will appear ...
$ startx
[will come back to gui, then ..]
$ ./.ashrc
$ appbrowser
[loading]

then on the appbrowser click connect.. it should works

sir i've got the problem when the proxy authentication begin

export http_proxy="http://username:password@host:port"

in my case:

export http_proxy="http://my_username:my_password@host_ip:port_ip"

on my_username field there is a character "chika@mycompany.com"
i've try "chika%40mycompany.com"

but no luck
