Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Core :: Networking: HTTP, defect)

Description

[Marcel Rothen]

User-Agent:       
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007

we use an squid proxy with authentication. the connect to an IDS URL fails when
a proxy is configured. access an IDS URL direct without a proxy works. 
the DNS decodes the IDS url correctly. http://www.gesundheitsförderung.bl.ch ->
http://www.xn--gesundheitsfrderung-16b.bl.ch  
But the browser sends the requeset directly to the host ip. It should send the
request to the proxy. 

 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Configure proxy with basic authentication
2.Connect to URL http://www.gesundheitsförderung.bl.ch
3.

Actual Results:  
connection timeout

Expected Results:  
IDS URL connection through the proxy 

i tested the autoproxy and manual proxy either none works correctly.

What do you mean by "IDS" URL?

Sorry, misstyping. "IDS" should be "IDN" Internationalized Domain Names
