httplib2 + http proxy gives 500 Internal Server Error

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?

http = httplib2.Http(proxy_info = httplib2.ProxyInfo(3,
'insert_http_proxy', 80))

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expected : Display the HTML Page

I see : socks.HTTPError: (500, 'Internal Server Error')

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

0.6.0, Ubuntu 9.1

Please provide any additional information below.

The http proxy works fine when configured in Firefox (Edit -> Preferences
-> Network -> Settings). It fails with HTTP Proxy (3) but works fine with
Socks 4/5 proxy (1,2).

could be that the http proxy did not like tunnelled http connections (CONNECT 
command).
