[Bug 271108] Re: http_proxy environment variable is not being updated

2009-02-11 Thread DerekKeats
I am on a fully up-to-date Intrepid and I am getting the same problem.
It has resulted in much frustration with instability. Is there any
workaround to get rid of the 'proxy settigns from hell' problem?

Description of bug:

Open gconf-editor, and delete proxy and http_proxy settings. Close
gconf-editor, and reopen it, and the settings are unchanged (i.e. the
proxy settings are still there. Do this with preferences, network proxy,
apply system wide, and save. Restart a terminal or restart the computer
and type echo $http_proxy and the deleted settings are still there.

Where is this stored, and how can I edit it manually to get rid of the
problem until the bug is resolved?

thanks
derek

that's what this dialog is supposed to do, so it seems to work
correctly, the bug would rather be those applications not using the
gconf key correctly then

Thanks for your bugreport.

When you changed the proxy settings, did you click (afterwards) on
Apply system-wide ?

2008-09-19 Thread George Pollard
I think I've found the problem: http_proxy is being set explicitly in
/etc/environment.

I didn't put this there myself (and it wasn't there before I upgraded to
Intrepid), so I presume that this is a side-effect of upgrading to
Intrepid through a proxy?

Yes, this does not affect the /etc/environment setting.

what ubuntu version do you use, could you open gconf-editor and see if
the system, http_proxy and proxy categories are updated when you do
changes in the GNOME dialog

This is using latest Intrepid Alpha.

These properties are updated correctly in gconf-editor:
/system/http_proxy/use_http_proxy
/system/proxy/mode

Sebastien, sorry if the screenshot is misleading, but the terminal was
launched *after* the proxy settings were changed. Even if I restart the
computer $http_proxy is not updated.

thank you for your bug report, that's not a bug though, the variable is
changed but applications running don't get dynamic environment changes,
that's not a bug in the configuration tools
