Re^2: "Proxy, LWP can't connect to local host"

how i find out? tbh i am totally new to web programming, and when i overtook the code, there were settings for proxy. But now the situation changed, so i guess local is nothing installed. But when i set all the proxy lines in comments, i just would get the error msg "can't connect to http://search.cpan.org/" i really don't know further.

This means that likely, there is a different proxy that your script now needs to talk to. I recommend talking to your system administrator to find out how your program can speak to the outside world.	[reply]

yes i can ask that tomorrow. But I followed the instructions on here and i think i found out? https://www.techwalla.com/articles/how-to-find-my-http-proxy-port-number Now the error msg is "Couldn't get http://search.cpan.org/403 Forbidden" (but i actually can access the page without perl)	[reply]

So most likely, it is your proxy that tells you that the page you're trying to request is forbidden. Maybe you need to supply additional credentials to your proxy.	[reply]
