How to set up reseed proxy?

[myrshfrs]

It seems that Reseed's websites are all blocked in my country. The log says " Reseed: SU3 download failed" and I can't access the webconsole.

First, please try using tor to download the su3 (assuming your using i2p-tor), here, https://github.com/diva-exchange/i2p?tab=readme-ov-file#get-started like this:

$ docker pull divax/i2p:current-i2p-tor
$ docker run --env PORT_TOR=9950 --env PORT_HTTP_PROXY=4544 --env ENABLE_HTTPPROXY=1 -p 7170:7070 -p 4544:4444 -p 9950:9050 -p 8080:8080 -d --name i2p-tor divax/i2p:current-i2p-tor

Assuming that the docker container is running properly, do download the su3 file (you can use any reseed server, reseed.diva.exchange is used as an example here):

$ curl --output test.su3 -x socks://127.0.0.1:9950 https://reseed.diva.exchange/i2pseeds.su3

RESULT:

  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed
100 76374  100 76374    0     0   2142      0  0:00:35  0:00:35 --:--:-- 17703

Please give feedback if this works as expected from whereever you are.

curl: (97) Can't complete SOCKS4 connection to 0.0.0.0:0. (91), request rejected or failed.

Please show your docker setup, like this: $ docker ps -a | grep divax

and also your complete curl command (the divax tor proxy is listening on localhost, 127.0.0.1, and on port 9950, by default).

docker environment looks OK. BUT: it looks like the tor proxy is not propely working within the container. Could you please show the logs of the i2p-tor container, like this:

docker logs i2p-tor | more

Here is an example how the output of the container log should look like:
