Windows XP SP2 (firewall off)

my computer is connected to Internet to a proxy on port 1080 with a user/pwd

I tried to add a "http_proxy" file and "http_proxyuserpwd" file in the "Application Data\moka5\LivePC Player\env" directory
but it's not working

before installing livePC engine i had already on my computer a VmWare player version 1.0.2 build-29634

Hi,

Port 1080? Is your proxy a SOCKS proxy? If so, you need to also add an "http_proxytype" file and set it to "socks4" or "socks5" if you are using a SOCKS v4 or SOCKS v5 proxy, respectively.

You can edit the proxy settings from the Advanced Settings dialog by pressing Ctrl-F8 on the LivePC Engine, instead of editing the env files manually.

http 1080 port

still the problem

under firefox i can see
proxy http
wwwgate0.domaine.net:1080
I installed Moka5 at home and it's working fine so i really guess that moka5 has some trouble with proxy settings

Hi, Sorry you are still

Hi,

Sorry you are still having problems getting it to work with your proxy. Try these settings on the Ctrl-F8 menu:

Set HTTP proxy to use: wwwgate0.domaine.net:1080
Set type of HTTP proxy: http
[username]:[password] to use for connection to the proxy: yourusername:yourpassword

Close and restart the LivePC Engine. If it still doesn't work, please turn on the "Enable verbose logging in libcurl" and send your m5engine log file to [email protected]. We should be able to diagnose what is going on.
