Re: HTTPS through http proxy

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Thank you Amos,

version of squid is : squid-3.3.8-26.el7_2.4.x86_64

Is this statement true:
squid is not aware or traffic that is made with connect command ?
since connect command make a tunnel within squid ?

passing below argument to JVM:
-Dhttps.proxyHost=webcache.example.com -Dhttps.proxyPort=8080
cause application connect to https://webcache.exammple.com
however I have not created any certificate.
May I assume squid is built with ssl enabled and both https and http proxy
being provided on one port ?

either above statement is true, or maybe Java has a bug.

Thanks for help, I will check on squidtool.

Thanks

That means you either have a very old Squid, or the transaction is not
completed yet as far as Squid is aware. Transactions only get logged on
completion, in this case when the CONNECT tunnel connection is closed by
one of the remove endpoints (client or server). It is not uncommon to
have tunnels stay open all day with HTTPS traffic going back and forward
unseen.

The recent Squid releases log failed client connections that did not
have any HTTP message received. So you can see if the failure happened
before HTTP happened.

see above about logging time.

You can also use recent squidclient tool if it has been built with
GnuTLS support. Or curl with debug tracing. Or wireshark with packet
captures if you know how.
