Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 84798

(Core :: Networking, defect)

Description

[Suresh Khatry]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130

All our clients load the proxy definition via automatic proxy definition.  The
last few lines of the proxy statements are:

}
  else {
          return "PROXY 80.205.253.66:3128; PROXY 80.205.253.67:3128";
}
}

when the proxy server 80.205.253.66 is not working Mozilla gives "The connection
was refused when attempting to contact http://blah.blah.com"

With Netscape 4.X and IE 5/6 the client correctly sends the request to the
second proxy server and presents the result.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make sure both proxies are alive
2. Verify that you can access a site
3. Shut down the first proxy
4. Verify that you get the same error when trying to access a site

Actual Results:  
Got the error "The connection was refused when attempting to contact
http://blah.blah.com"

Expected Results:  
Should have contacted the second proxy server upon getting a 'connection
refused' from the first proxy server
