15477 - Proxy prefs migration screw up mozilla behavior

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: Networking, defect, P3)

Description

[Chris McAfee]

linux, apprunner
Running apprunner -installer migrates all the proxy prefs,
first run of apprunner wouldn't load any pages.
I had to delete all the proxy prefs to fix this.
Default proxy pref is none, I think.

mcafee, can you paste your 4.x proxy prefs in the bug report, so I can test it?

adding gagan because this is proxy related.

This is my bug. And I know about it. All mine. If you really wanna know- I have
to add the proxy.type pref reading capability. Currently there is only a check
for HTTP proxy and so it automatically tries to use it even if the proxy.type
prefs says don't.

[Judson Valeski]

Yup. Gagan's got it. We're not honoring the proxy.type pref.
