Thank You for answer. Well, this are details of installation: - Windows server 2008 R2 - Therefore, version of Octave is standalone "Octave-3.6.4-mingw + octaveforge pkgs". http://wiki.octave.org/Octave_for_Windows#Octave-3.6.2-mingw_.2B_octaveforge_pkgs - Actually we want to use "urlread" Octave function. => we get "error: urlread: curl: Couldn't connect to server" - we read that we should set up the proxy settings through CURL package.
Do you think that we are looking for the answer at the wrong address?

Have you read the INSTALL document that comes with the source code? That gives instructions for installing curl in many different environments. > After typing pkg install curl-7.31.0 it gives error: package is > missing file DESCRIPTION That doesn't sounds like any of the instructions in INSTALL.

Octave? Is there a curl binding to Octave? You'll have to more carefully explain what exactly you're trying to accomplish, because it's not clear to me what you're really trying to do. If you're looking for a curl or libcurl binary package, you can look at http://curl.haxx.se/dlwiz/, but if you want curl/libcurl in support of another program, you'll have to read that program's instructions on how to do it, because there's no way for the curl project to know how random third parties are using curl. >>> Dan ------------------------------------------------------------------- List admin: http://cool.haxx.se/list/listinfo/curl-library Etiquette: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/etiquette.html ________________________________ PRAVNE NAPOMENE: Sadržaj ove elektroničke poruke i eventualno priloženih datoteka povjerljiv je i namijenjen isključivo osobama ili subjektima na koje je poruka naslovljena.
