WP_PROXY support?

    So, I’m working with a site that will be running behind a proxy, and we’ve got the WP_PROXY stuff going in wp-config.php.

    We have a version running on our testing tier, which works perfectly, and a version running on our production system that is not working – the only difference between the two tiers is that outbound requests from the server must be run through a proxy for security reasons.

    It looks like SYG blows a gasket when it tries to get the youtube user profile? Fatal error: Call to a member function getFeedLink() on a non-object in /wp-content/plugins/sliding-youtube-gallery/engine/SygYouTube.php on line 58

    Any help or insight into this issue would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    I use Zend gdata library that could be used under a proxy by acting on class constructor engine/lib/Zend/Http/Client/Adapter/Proxy.php .
    A workaround should be setting in that class the following parameters manually:

    protected $config = array(
        'ssltransport'  => 'ssl',
        'sslcert'       => null,
        'sslpassphrase' => null,
        'sslusecontext' => false,
        'proxy_host'    => '',
        'proxy_port'    => 8080,
        'proxy_user'    => '',
        'proxy_pass'    => '',
        'proxy_auth'    => Zend_Http_Client::AUTH_BASIC,
        'persistent'    => false
    );

    To apply this solution (if the security level is very strict), I suggest you to protect this file with the rights permission or by using apache security features. Plus, when you deploy a new version in production, take care not to overwriting the lib folder (you can use a simple ftp script). Keep me updated if it works.

    Hey, Luca!

    Thanks for the response – unfortunately, when we configured those settings on our production servers, it didn’t seem to change anything. We kept right on getting that same error message, and our proxy server recorded no requests from it.

    We’re still kinda stumped on this one!

    Hey!
    Ok I will try to reproduce the problem in my local system. Which proxy do you use in your company?

    Thanks, Luca

    My apologies for the delay – it’s a squid proxy.
