Ubuntu Networking :: Privoxy Is Not Allowing Connection To Any Website?
May 15, 2010
I am running karmic on a laptop. I recently changed iptables to drop all new incoming packets (not the related or established ones) on all ports. I was not running a proxy, so this worked fine. More recently I got v 3.0.13 of privoxy with apt-get and looked through the config file. I changed the default port in the privoxy config to 8080 and kept the ip at 127.0.0.1. Then I changed the Firefox settings to use a HTTP proxy at 127.0.0.1 with port 8080. when I try to run privoxy with the command: privoxy /etc/privoxy/config , the terminal outputs no errors. Then when I try to access a webpage through firefox the page will not load, but firefox doesn't display any reason for it. I don't really even know if privoxy is running because when I check the logfile (after having uncommented the logfile line in the privoxy config file) it is blank. I don't know much about networking, but I was wondering if someone could tell me why this is happening? Well that was a bit dumb of me. I just had to allow new packages in from localhost.

In INSTALL I can see:
Quote:
to build from either unpacked tarball or CVS source:
autoheader
autoconf
./configure # (--help to see options)
make # (the make from GNU, sometimes called gmake)
su # Possibly required
make -n install # (to see where all the files will go)
make -s install # (to really install, -s to silence output)
code....
I think that trouble is in autoheader. I don't now does src2pkg (2.1) support it.Is it impossible to build a package of privoxy with src2pkg?

Long-time linux user, new to Ubuntu (mainly a gentoo user). I need to get tor and privoxy up and running for a less computer-capable user. I installed Tor and Privoxy, configured them (apparently correctly) and they both appear to work just fine when I start them manually from their init scripts:
sudo /etc/init.d/tor start
sudo /etc/init.d/privoxy start
However, I cannot seem to get privoxy to start up properly when the machine boots. Tor starts up and waits patiently, but privoxy is dying or getting killed for some reason I can't understand, and on Ubuntu, have no idea how to diagnose. There's no privoxy process after booting, and the init.d script reports status: not running. I have the startup scripts for both Tor and Privoxy linked to in all the relevant runlevels. I played with the order thinking it might be a dependency thing. Hell, I even put a line in rc.local to try and force it to go. But no matter what I do, I can't seem to get the privoxy service to start for me any way but by manually typing 'sudo /etc/init.d/privoxy start' in a terminal, after logging in.
1. Help me get privoxy to auto-start during init
2. OR Help me figure out how to figure out how to get privoxy to auto-start during init. On Gentoo, all of the init scripts are listed on the screen during init as they run, and you can even run through them interactively by pressing I during startup. I have no idea how to do this on Ubuntu. I modified the kernel line to remove the splash screen, but the information Ubuntu puts on the screen during init is quite haphazard. How do I figure out what's going wrong with the privoxy init script?

Have seen this post and was wondering why would that be so.

Privoxy is supposed to either block or allow specific adverts, why would that corrupt a single file, like an .exe or .tar.gz?

I'm trying to setup iptables to send web (tcp?) traffic through Squid and Privoxy transparently (to save having to setup everything per browser and hoping they honor their settings). I know I have done this before but I can't find the old config nor remember the exact options needed to do this.What I am wanting specificially is for Privoxy to grab the data as it leaves the browser, do its thing then pass it on to Squid before sending it down the line, then doing the same incoming (Privoxy -> Squid -> requesting app).

Every time I try to set to standard.(cautious|medium|advanced) I get Apr 26 17:20:59.960 7f7faff15700 Fatal error: can't load actions file '/etc/privoxy/match-all.action': invalid line (9): { +standard.Cautious } /
or something similar. No additional help is available in the docs. So i try to use http://p.p (i.e. config.privoxy.org), and click on [URL]... expecting to get the three mode buttons. It just returns to p.p.
I already set the three edit vars to allow remote editing etc.So I looked in the top 15 Google hits for "Privoxy standard.Cautious". Apparently, nobody else knows how to do this either even tried launching firefox in root. but I'm getting kind-of frustrated with the writers/maintainers of Privoxy 3.

I have the following details on my system:
- CentOS
- RHEL 5
- WebWare for Python
We have an exisiting website written in Python and was developed by other entities and now being maintained by us. We want to run the website using secure connection (HTTPS), I tried reading this article and successfully executed every instructions but still failed to run the website using HTTPS.
[URL]
The way we run the website is using port 8080, e.g. [URL] I am sure I am missing something here, first, I am still looking on where does the port 8080 comes from since I've checked the httpd.config and it wasn't there.

I am running opensuse with LAMP, and this is my first time setting up this type of server (usually am a windows junkie) My problem i am having is that I am unable to view my website from outside the local network. I have setup my router for a dynamic dns and forwarded all the ports through the router and the local firewall. I ran the apache setup through YAST2 and everything seems fine locally but when i attempt to access it elsewhere its not connecting. computechsolutions.dyndns.biz is the dynamic dns address i have setup through my router.

When i open one of the web browsers i use and try to load a web site it's taking to long to respond and sometimes it doesnt load the website at all. I have tried with firefox,epiphany,opera with all the same results. I am sure that this is not a problem with my internet connection because i don't have these problems with windows.Also the network manager connection settings are correct
I also tried choosing the old kernel(2.6.32.24) to boot from but no success.The problem is the same as if i am using the 2.6.32.25 kernel. The strange thing is that i can download packages from synaptic with full speed. Last think.I have recently downloaded the recommended updates from the update manager but i don't remember what are the things that where updated.

Currently i am using the tutorial from Bodhi to setup Dansguardian to work togather with Privoxy and it worked fine.Then i installed Polipo to work with Privoxy which work as intented with additional forward the port to Privoxy.
Code:
Is it possible to run Polipo together with Privoxy? Yes. In order to get the privacy enhancements of Privoxy and much (but not all) of the performance of Polipo, you should put Polipo upstream of Privoxy.
In other words, you should:
point your web browser at Privoxy (localhost:8118);
point Privoxy at Polipo (put forward / localhost:8123 in the Privoxy config file);
use no parent proxy in Polipo.
Now i tried to use Dansguardian togather with Privoxy and Dansguardian with the same configuration but fail.

Since I cannot upgrade Adblock Plus anymore because iceweasel is too out of date for the new versions, I am trying to give privoxy a try. I am following the howto Block Ads & Fast Caching w/Privoxy +Squid without success. I am always receiving the error:The proxy server is refusing connections Iceweasel is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections.Check the proxy settings to make sure that they are correct.
I added these lines to /etc/privoxy/config
enable-remote-toggle 1
enable-edit-actions 1
permit-access 127.0.0.1
Moreover, I have edited the /etc/hosts file to block urls providing adverts and anything I wanted rejected.

I am at a loss as to what to do to get Privoxy working. I have tried it using Ice Weasel and Konqueror and end up with the same problem: after I set the configuration in the browser, I cannot access anything on the internet.

I installed and configured privoxy - everything worked nicely when I run it manually by
Quote:
/etc/init.d/privoxy start
After restarting the computer privoxy wasn't start automatically. I checked the links in /etc/rcX.d - are o.k. I installed sysv-rc-conf - shows that for runlevel 2 - 5 privoxy is running. I changed /etc/rc2.d/S20privoxy to /etc/rc2.d/S99privoxy - to start that process at the end. I installed Boot-Up Manager. Privoxy is marked for start automatically. I added in /etc/rc.local line: /etc/init.d/privoxy start
Privoxy still doesn't turn on at boot time and every time I must start it manually. Could you tell me how could I repair this ?

I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 and for some reason, privoxy just won't start properly on startup. I see privoxy is there when I run 'ps -A', but Firefox says that it is refusing connections. When I run 'sudo /etc/init.d/privoxy restart', it restarts and everything is peachy. But for some reason, it just won't start properly on boot

So I was reading this thread on internet privacy and decided to 'upgrade' my system. I installed privoxy and tor and chained them from squid so it looks like this: iceweasel >> squid >> privoxy >> tor. All is working well except when I go to edit my privoxy default.action file I get a fatal error. I've got version 3.0.9-1 The original line in the newly installed default.action file. #+hide-referer{forge}
I edited it by simply removing the #. +hide-referer{forge} Then:su -c '/etc/init.d/privoxy force-reload'And I get this in the logfile.Sep 14 16:41:36.260 Privoxy(7f4fa64756e0) Fatal error: can't load actions file '/etc/privoxy/default.action': first needed line (361) is invalid: +hide-referer{forge} I've even copy/pasted from the manual and to no avail.Have I been looking at to much text for the last two days?What am I missing?

I am running a basic squid + privoxy combo for web caching/filtering proxy and it works fine. I'm basically running a stock config w/ a few minor edits to allow the relevant hosts access etc.now I am trying to find an easy way to specify privoxy to not filter a specific site (which it breaks). I have tried wading through the privoxy manual + google but I find the config file incredibly complicated. Are there any experts out there who can tell me: what is the easiest way to tell privoxy to 'pass through' a specific website?

I am completely fed up trying to do it. I had no problems with 11.0. It refuses to start up during boot like tor. I added tor to the kde start menu and it works just fine after boot. Privoxy refuses to start up during boot. I have to go into SU mode in terminal, then it works. I need to be able to start Privoxy the same way. I tried everything from chown / chmod commands, and it made no difference. I have it set for 777, and my name along with root. I also added the group privoxy to my user ID. I need the computer to disregard that it is a root program.

I have 10 systems working on LAN with fixed IP given to all the 10. I have ubuntu installed. "ifconfig" shows my IP on eth0 interface. Query : I've my blog at /var/www with Apache installed and it works fine when i give the IP address of eth0 (Not 127.0.0.1). And it works from any system when i gve the IP address.* How can i change the IP address to a simple URL. Eg: Instead of I've tried:1) Adding entry to hosts & configuring httpd.conf in apache. Did not work.2) I don't want any bind, as it should be accesible only within the LAN

I've actually gotten a webserver (hardy heron, server edition) working before and had a Joomla site up I could find on the net. But I did a fresh install of Lucid Lynx (desktop edition, that I added some packages to to use as a server). Between the router (wrong ip address?), port forwarding (set right?), my domain nameservers (godaddy) and the DynDNS service I use (for dynamic ip) I must have a wrong setting because, my joomla website shows up at localhost, but not 'out there' so to speak. I would like to get this site out there and working soon, as it's one I'm just doing free for a Community Garden.
