Description of problem: No matter how I defined proxy, no connection is made with Konqueror. Local web addresses work ok. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kde-settings-4.0-21.fc9.noarch konqueror --version Qt: 4.3.4 KDE: 4.0.3 (KDE 4.0.3) Konqueror: 4.0.3 (KDE 4.0.3) How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Define proxy 2. Try use konq. to connect web Actual results: Server are not found Expected results: Firefox with same proxy settings works. Additional info: Seems to be upstream bug, see URL, though I report it anyway here too.

There's a patch in the upstream bug report, I'll try a test build with that patch, let's see how it goes.
Actually there are (at least) 2 patches: * a kdelibs patch: http://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=24641&action=view Several versions of that patch by different authors, this is the latest, not sure if it's the best though. * a kdebase patch to fix the proxy dialog in Konqueror: http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-devel&m=119028779303232&w=2
We may want some of the changes from this (also against kdelibs) too: http://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=24487&action=view
> We may want some of the changes from this (also against kdelibs) too: > http://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=24487&action=view Actually we don't need this one. The changes to kio_http are superseded by the first patch I listed: http://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=24641&action=view and the other changes have been already applied in KDE 4.0.4.
New version of the kdelibs patch by Sergey Saukh: http://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=24758&action=view > FIX: > don't drop connection on post requests; > close connection if request's proxy url differs from state's (previous > request).
> * a kdebase patch to fix the proxy dialog in Konqueror: > http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-devel&m=119028779303232&w=2 This one was actually applied months ago (before 4.0 branched): http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=715132 so only the kdelibs patch is relevant.
Should be fixed in kdelibs-4.0.4-3.fc9: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=609985

I have responded to http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F9/FEDORA-2008-3664, but I thought I would put it here as well. The fixes do allow my konqueror to now be able to use the web proxy, but it spins up kded4 process to near 100% during the request, and it can be painfully slow compared to firefox. It actually causes several things within the KDE interface to become unresponsive while it is processing the proxy request and subsequent download of the requested data.
Thanks for your feedback, I forwarded it to the upstream bug. While the high CPU use is a problem left to be fixed, this is definitely better than proxies not working at all. ;-)
Sergey Saukh asks at http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=155707#c49 : > Such strange behaviour of kded4 can be caused by two modules - favicons and > proxyscout. Does he use proxy autoconfiguration? If he does, does manual > setting of proxy help? (The best way of communicating is probably to reply upstream directly so I don't have to copy&paste messages back and forth. ;-) )
Norman R. Weathers: Ping? We're still waiting for an answer to upstream's question.
