"Connection timed out: connect" error when fetching geocoding URL #282

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Address column, edit column, add column by fetching URL
2.Enter expression: 
"http://maps.google.com/maps/api/geocode/json?sensor=false&address=" + 
escape(value, "url") 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected to see the JSON output, but see: "Connection timed out: connect"

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Version 2.0 [r1836], WinXP

Please provide any additional information below.
As an aside, after entering the JSON expression, in the preview window you can 
see the geocoding URLs the application is trying to call. If I highlight these 
URLs and say 'go to URL', the correct JSON information is retreived.

This is through a corporate firewall and web proxy, maybe there are some issues 
with ports.
