No problem. Let me know if you need more info.

Please, try the new version (3.0.3).
P.S. Restart required after upgrade.

Hello.

Proxy works now, i get a "Proxy Authentication Required" message.
But i still can't set a username and password for it.

Thank you, good work!

Must be:

To use HTTP Basic Auth with your proxy, use the http://user:password@host/ syntax...

http://docs.python-requests.org/en/latest/user/advanced/#proxies

It's a public proxy or not?

[nicolaevladescu]

It's not public, i tried the following syntax:

http://user:pass@proxy-host:port
https://user:pass@proxy-host:port
user:pass@proxy-host:port

I always get the same error: https://www.dropbox.com/s/iw2zawnz3bx3r02/Screenshot%202016-01-11%2016.38.18.png?dl=0

With test wingate proxy, works with:

"https": true,
"proxy_host": "http://tosher:[email protected]:8080"

and with incorrect password:

Connection failed for ('https', 'en.wikipedia.org'): 
HTTPSConnectionPool(host='en.wikipedia.org', port=443): 
Max retries exceeded with url: /w/api.php 
(Caused by ProxyError('Cannot connect to proxy.', 
OSError('Tunnel connection failed: 407 Proxy authorization required',)))

But, it's settings for HTTP Basic Auth.
Which type is used on your proxy?

[nicolaevladescu]

It is also HTTP Basic Auth, but i have a bit longer and tricky password including some characters that need escaping like $ or @.

I will give it a try tomorrow with a test user and a simple password, then come back to you.

Thanks!

Hello.

I manually escaped reserved characters and it worked.

Thanks a lot!
