my server unable to reach https port 443 urls behind proxy

  • 772

I have set up a 12.04 LTS ubuntu headless server 64 bit.

This is my network interfaces

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The basic eth0 network interface
auto eth0
#iface eth0 inet dhcp


# static IP
iface eth0 inet static
   address 146.11.90.234
   netmask 255.255.255.0
   gateway 146.11.90.1
   dns-nameservers 146.11.115.200

I can do ping www.google.com from inside the server. However, I am unable to access https repositories when I try to use composer.

I know the proxy server allows me to use all protocols via www.xxxx.com:8080

Please advise.

  1. In order for an SSL proxy to work, the proxy has to install its own SSL certificate in the user’s browser and have the client establish a secure and encrypted session with the proxy, which in turn establishes a secure and encrypted session w/ the server on its behalf. Very often SSL proxies are set up incorrectly or proxy only works with 80 port but SSL traffic is sent directly - without proxy. So you can try to access SSL site directly.
