protocols.http.proxy occassionally gets ignored #1349

Open Mikaela opened 5 years ago

Mikaela commented 5 years ago

I have protocols.http.proxy set to 127.0.0.1:8118 which is Privoxy listening on 127.0.0.1 and it's configured to send traffic to Tor (forward-socks5t / 127.0.0.1:9050 .).

However often web fetch https://icanhazip.com/ returns the real IP\n and web title http://expyuzz4wqqyqhjn.onion/ (www.torproject.org, see onion.torproject.org) returns <urlopen error [Errno -2] Name or service not known>.

I have confirmed that the issue is not in Privoxy configuration as curl -x http://127.0.0.1:8118 https://icanhazip.com returns IP of a Tor exit node.

There was a suggestion that I may have a perception error on it working sometimes and there were two interesting links.

the Web plugin source code as it currently is doesn't mention the word "proxy"

it doesn't need to deal with proxies because it uses supybot.utils.web.

It seems to hardcode the proxy as None instead of actually reading the configured proxy?

Yes, but it's overridden here: https://github.com/ProgVal/Limnoria/blob/67a39a3adbd78d8088a0bac94c47227891a54e58/src/conf.py#L1335
