Re: [EP-tech] how to tell eprints to use a proxy server

Hi,

I think you might be able to set the proxy in the env e.g.:

export http_proxy='http://user:password@proxy-server:3128'

export https_proxy='http://user:password@proxy-server:3128'

export ftp_proxy='http://user:password@proxy-server:3128'

 

 

In the past (for a reason I can’t remember now), I had to do something like this:

http://serverfault.com/questions/589340/configuring-apache-web-server-to-use-the-http-proxy-environment-variable

- but that was on an old Solaris server…

 

Cheers,

John

No, that is not the problem - the extension is installed and works fine. I have changed our firewall config, so eprints can communicate without a proxy, but this is only a workaround.

 

Do you have any other idea?

It seems, from your log message, that the problem is with your perl installation: you are missing the extension XML::LibXML

Hi Holger,

I have created in cfg/cfg.d a file called proxy.pl with the line:

$c->{proxy} = 'http://proxy.yourproxy.org:yourport';

and everything works fine.

Hi @ all,

 

my new eprints server is behind a firewall in a DMZ. If i will import Items from Pubmed ID i get an error message.

 

-- error : unreachable network --

 

I think eprints dont know how to communicate outside and i have to set a proxy.

 

So how can i tell eprints to use a proxy server?

 

OS: Cent OS 6.7

Eprints Version 3.3.15

 

King regards,

Holger
