Konqueror HTTPS through proxy

[romainguinot]

Hi ,

I might be dumb but i cannot get any SSL-enabled IOSlave to work through proxies in KDE 4.1.00!
Accessing HTTPS websites such as GMail through Konqueror works fine when i'm directly connected to the internet (for example at
home), but it doesn't when going through a proxy at work. In that case Konqueror says "Unknown host" even though my proxy config is
fine, and i can access without problems with Firefox and the same proxy config.

It doesn't work either when accessing an SSL-enabled WebDAV share with Webdavs IOSlave for example.
Konq says it can load OpenSSL successfully in the config test.

Anyone aware of similar issues ?

I'm using Fedora 9 with KDE 4.1.
I have tested through various distributions, and various proxies, none work :(
This is a rather serious problem IMHO...

Thanks,

I have been testing this for a while. I cannot reproduce this problem with KDE
4.1.60 (trunk).

My proxy doesn't authenticate, though.

Hi ,
It seems to be a Konq/DNS related issue as putting the IP address of any
HTTPS (or WebDAVS for example) Website in /etc/hosts "fixes" to problem
for Konqueror.
What is weird is that Firefox does not need any that and resolves
everything correctly on the same system.

I also found this very old bug report (2001!) that reported similar
issues but the problem what lack of GUI configuration so i don't think
it's related unless Konqueror somehow ignores the setting for httpsProxy...

Are you aware of any correction of similar issues between 4.1.00 and
trunk  ?

Thanks,
Romain.

I've been using a proxy server by its hostname and it's not in /etc/hosts.

I still can't reproduce the issue.

I have been having this problem with Konqueror 3.5.9, 4.0.5 and 4.1
using privoxy. Firefox 3 never fails to pull up the page that konqueror
can't. This is practically my only problem with konqueror, but it
happens a lot with https pages.

Hi all,

I can confirm that this issue has thankfully disappeared from 4.1.1 builds.

Best regards,
Romain.

Thought it was fixed but it's not :(
Added a comment on http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=155707

on the various tested scenarios...
