GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 549823
$http_proxy not set in nautilus-scripts
Last modified: 2021-06-18 15:13:55 UTC
Please describe the problem: When I launch a script from a console, $http_proxy has the value entered in gnome proxy. If I launch exactly the same script in nautilus (a nautilus script), $http_proxy is empty (so my script doesn't work, it needs to access internet). Steps to reproduce: 1. set a proxy in gnome 2. create a script with a line zenity --info --text "proxy=$http_proxy" in ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts 3. launch it from gnome-terminal 4. launch it from nautilus Actual results: $http_proxy is empty when launched from nautilus Expected results: it should be set Does this happen every time? yes Other information:
It seems that if you restart Nautilus, it works just fine. Don't know what we should do here.
I don't know, but some programs are aware of a change in gnome proxy settings. For example, pidgin, firefox, or weather applet : no need to restart them after a change in proxy settings.
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version of Files (nautilus), then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
