Google Play store issues

utmfan
Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone had created an exception rule for Web Filtering on the Google Play store? I've noticed that large application updates like Skype & Chrome won't successfully update with the Web Filtering turned on, though smaller ones seem yo update without issue.

I'm using the filter in transparent mode without HTTPS. Turning the filter off resolves the problem immediately, though I can't find any blocking or errors in the log. It's like the download is just timing out with the web filter turned on?

    Make a firewall rule allowing traffic from internal to Internet on port 5228 (both tcp and udp)

    I did that, but I don't think that was what fixed it for me as I have an allow all outgoing rule already. 

    I then added a new exception rule in Web Protection/Web Filtering/Exceptions. Checked everything except the Logging boxes and added "Matching these URLs"  with this URL:  https?://([A-Za-z0-9.-]*\.)?android\.clients\.google\.com/

    Google Play store seems to download properly now!
    Hope this helps someone else.. [:D]
