Hi All,

I have a problem downloading files from https from our internal network. I already export both proxy as below

[root@uk]# echo $http_proxy
http://setproxy.aaa.com/proxy.pac:8080
[root@uk]# echo $https_proxy
http://setproxy.aaa.com/proxy.pac:8080


wget are used as below

[root@uk]# wget https://www.google.com/
--2016-12-05 03:52:09-- https://www.google.com/
Resolving setproxy.aaa.com... 10.184.18.74
Connecting to setproxy.aaa.com|10.184.18.74|:80... connected.
Proxy tunneling failed: Method Not AllowedUnable to establish SSL connection.
[root@uk]#


even with username/passwd and --no-check-cert still failing

[root@uk]# wget --proxy-user aaa12345 --proxy-password 12334 https://www.google.com/

Please help me, thank you gurus!

Hi,

From my point of view it looks that your proxy dont allow that, but im guessing.

Try to use also curl that may help.

Can you try:
If it went through, HEAD is allowed but not GET method as per log output. Regardless, check your proxy server.

I think the target will not al;low the ssl connection. You might try --user-agent= and just leave it blank.

https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/wget-e...tps-web-sites/ has some ideas to try.

@camp0 - i tried using curl, still showing failed
[root@us /]# curl https://www.google.com/
curl: (7) Failed to connect to 2607:f8b0:400a:800::2004: Network is unreachable
[root@us]#


@c0wb0y - I do not see any --method options, different version maybe?
[root@us]# wget --method=HEAD https://www.google.com/
wget: unrecognized option '--method=HEAD'
Usage: wget [OPTION]... [URL]...

Try `wget --help' for more options.
[root@us]#


@AwesomeMachine - its just showing trying

[root@us]# wget --user-agent= https://www.google.com/

@jefro - thanks for the useful site, I've bee through it before post it here :)

or issit possible i got the proxy server wrong?

thanks all for helping out :)

Read the error carefully. You are using ssl. It says method not allowed.

try substituting https with http if you want to download and see if it works.


Hope this helps.

Oops, my bad. I misread the manpage.

How about this:
We're you able to get past the proxy?

@pingu_penguin - same for even http

[root@us~]# wget http://www.google.com/
--2016-12-06 07:55:30-- http://www.google.com/
Resolving setproxy.aaa.com (setproxy.aaa.com)... 152.51.8.191
Connecting to setproxy.aaa.com (setproxy.aaa.com)|152.51.8.191|:80...


@c0wb0y - i got error as below. curl ip4 not helping either
[root@us ~]# openssl s_client -connect google.com:443
socket: Connection timed out
connect:errno=110
[root@us~]#

cheers guys

It's time for you now to check your proxy server.

I agree with c0wboy , check your proxy or use some other proxy.

@c0wb0y and pingu_penguin - thank you guys, let me try to check if there's any other proxy server i can use. Will let u guys know if that fix it.

thanks again :)

try using axel to see if that will get past your proxy.

Axel behind authenticated proxy

thanks everyone for your help, yeap - issues with my proxy server.. its working good after i change my proxy server and port.

thanks again, appreciate your help :)
