Description stx123 2003-06-26 18:17:19 UTC 
My system setting say that a proxy should be used.
If I choose system settings for the crashreporter OOo tries to send the report 
directly to the receiving server.
Comment 1 hennes.rohling 2003-06-26 19:52:30 UTC 
The only thing not supported is "Use automatic configuration script"
and "Auto detect proxy" (whatever that means for IE).
And a HTTP proxy has to be specified, SOCKS is not supported. That
would require an implementation based on wininet.dll shipped with IE. 

Just tested with OOo build and works as expected. 

Maybe you have more than one connection. The crashreporter uses the
settings from the Windows registry. These settings do not necessarily
reflect the settings for your default connection but for that that's
actually used by winsock. The settings are set on the fly by winsock
implementation depending on the connection it actually uses.

Verify the settings in the Windows registry at:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings

Just tested with the latest OOo build and works as expected.
Comment 2 stx123 2003-06-27 08:51:11 UTC 
The registry values seem to be ok:
ProxyServer = xxxx.germany.sun.com:3128
BUt I doesn't work for me...
Comment 3 hennes.rohling 2003-06-27 16:36:46 UTC 
That helped me.

When the check box "Use same proxy for all protocols" is checked the
protocol prefixes in the registry are missing (despite API Doc says
they are always there).

Fixed in cws ooo11rc
