you need to explain more abuot what errors you're seeing and such like... for example, can you ping the proxy you are trying to reach? please provide more detail, things you think you'd want to know if someone was asking you this question. if your running this proxy yourself then you should be already able to ensure it is functioning before trying to use it.
