Bug #62340
closed6.2.4 wrong comment, <Install>->[All configuration]: [HTTP][proxy_host], prefix 'http://' not needed
100%
Description
Hi,
i tried to use a proxy-server for outgoing connection and had some trouble after i followed the documentation for the 'proxy_host' variable...
BUG-DESCRIPTION ===============
choosing 'Install' in the Module-menu,
then click 'All configuration',
unfold $TYPO3_CONF_VARS['HTTP'] -tree.
In that list the [HTTP][proxy_host] Var has wrong inline-documentation:
[HTTP][proxy_host] = 127.0.0.1
String: Default proxy server as "http://proxy.example.org" (You must not set the port here. Set the port below.)
I found the above string in:
./typo3/sysext/core/Configuration/DefaultConfiguration.php
With my installed T3 ver. 6.2.4, and no curl-extension installed,
http-over-proxy-connection did not work.
I removed the 'http://'-prefix-string, and everything was allright :)
!Not testet with curl-extension!
SUGGESTED SOLUTION
==================
remove the the 'http://' in the file
./typo3/sysext/core/Configuration/DefaultConfiguration.php
with the line:
'proxy_host' => '', // String: Default proxy server as "http://proxy.example.org" (You must not set the port here. Set the port below.)
FURTHER QUESTION ================
For the variable [SYS][curlUse]
the documentation in the content-area tells me:
Boolean: If set, try to use cURL to fetch external URLs
i'm not sure, but is this deprecated for 6.2?

I'm a t3 beginner, my first bug-report, thanks for the good work
