http://le-moulin-de-verre.com/fieldnotes/?p=103

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Help -> install new software

Do you mean an NTLM proxy? It should work as bug 287558 is fixed.

Yes, maybe that's it. Will there be a 3.5.2 released? (hm, version was incorrectly 3.6)
Comment 3 Pawel Pogorzelski CLA 2010-01-11 07:35:05 EST
It was released to 3.5.1, tracked on bug 287746. The workaround you mentioned should be no longer necessary. That's why I'm surprised the problem reappeared.

Could you provide more information on proxy server and authentication method used?

Sorry for the long delay. I cannot ask my sysadmin (long story). Is there a way to figure it myself?

The workaround should also applied to 3.6 :(

1. What exactly means that "Authenticated proxy not working". Do you have any error message?
2. Can you try to use Wireshark and provide your http headers from clients and server?

No, no error message, just the progressbar is constantly on 0%.

I am not familiar with Wireshark, but to figure out what type of proxy do I have, I attach a firebug output of request and response HTTP headers, that might help. If not, please tell.

Tried wireshark, started live capturing before eclipse started, and got no HTTP protocol data, just one, which is "Continuation or non-HTTP traffic".

Applying the abovementioned ini file workaround, it can connect to update sites, and it also appears in wireshark.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
