15175 - <auth> Proxy doesnt work

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 15927

(Core :: Networking, defect, P3)

Description

[Glenn McGrath]

Hi, im on a network that requires a proxy configuration to get outside the lan.

Under advanced setup i set the autoproxy to my proxy setup, however i cant get
outside the lan.

Under netscape communicator and ie5 a dialog box pops up where i enter my proxy
username and password, but i dont get this with mozilla M9.

Im not sure wether this feature is supposed to work yet, i tried searching for
bugs relating to proxy but found none(maybe i didnt search correctly)

Unfortunatly i cant use mozilla untill it can work with a (my networks) proxy.

This is what i get from apprunner.exe maybe the error code means something to
you.

When i run ProxyTest.exe the text it spews out looks like its worked, but it
crashes, relevent info follows.
Im not familiour with how the proxy test works, so i cant judge if its a fair
test for my problem.

PROXYTEST caused an invalid page fault in
module PROXYTEST.EXE at 017f:00401228.

sorry if this is the wrong bug. I can connect through a proxy set up using
workaround in bug#8559. However, viewer.exe still won't work, only apprunner. I
can open apprunner when viewer has failed and it amkes a connection jsut fine.
Vier returns this:
Error: Can't Load: http://mozilla.org/ (804b000d)

viewer doesn't have proxy configurations set up since they come from
preferences. BTW proxytest is not a test for HTTP Proxies its for proxy events
across different threads. Marking this bug invalid then...

Please note original description as posted by [e-mail].  This is
the correct problem description, and it is a bug for me as well.  Viewer and
proxytest are not part of the problem.
