I have a Trisul setup behind an authenticated proxy. I asked for and was denied an exception for the Trisul server to pass through the proxy unauthenticated. Do you know how I should setup my server to allow the bedfellas list to be updated? I have apt running do to storing a service account password in apt.conf. Could I make a similar change to /etc/enviroment? Also, to test is there a way to force the plugin update manually and what log file would I check to make sure it is successful?

Hello Tim,

If I recall you are on Ubuntu 12.04 64-bits. Is that correct ?

Please standby we will have a new build in an hour which allows Trisul to update via proxy.

Thanks,

Vivek

Hello Tim,


The new build is now available (only the Ubuntu 1204 64-bit as of now)

Please login & get the webtrisul webtrisul_3.6.1146_amd64.deb package.
Uninstall the old one (dpkg -r webtrisul) and install the new one as usual.


To use a proxy server for updating lists:

1. Go to the /usr/local/share/webtrisul/config/initializers directory
2. Find the file called oem_settings.rb
3. Go to the last line of the file you will see three lines

Since you are using an unauthenticated proxy (the most common type) edit the file as follows

Note that the http:// part is mandatory !

Thanks and post a message here if you need further assistance.

Thanks for the quick turnaround. I upgraded Webtrisul several days ago. We are using an authenticated proxy, so I typed in the server, user and password. Is there a log file I could check to make sure Trisul can grab the lists correctly?

The log file can be found in
or from the UI

If there are any errors it should show up there.

Thanks!
