Error parsing proxy URL- Semicolon in password 31 December 2007 22:46
I get this error (Error parsing proxy URL
http://domain\user:password: Bad port number.) from both V 4.64 and V
3.20. I believe the problem is generated because my password
contains a semicolon (;) which is not interpreted correctly by your
program or script.
This is the value of http_proxy:
http://domain\user:password;@myproxy.com:80
I have tried these variations:
“http://domain\user:password;@myproxy.com:80”
http://domain\user:password^;@myproxy.com:80
http://domain\user:”password;”@myproxy.com:80
Can you please suggest a workaround or provide a patch so I can
continue to use a password that contains a special character?
