HTTP Proxy Stops Responding

Hello

I've opened a case with Sophos premium support, but I thought I'd post the problem here as well to see if anyone has any suggestions.

A few times per day we're getting "Proxy server not responding". I managed to catch it in the live log today, and this is the last few lines before it stops responding:

Clients are configured to use the utm as a proxy, and transparently, but both have problems.

Any ideas appreciated!

  • get a support ticket started...cannot tell you anything more than that..sorry..


    Thanks anyway William [:)]

    I'll post back with any developments!

  • I would be interested in any update on this problem. Since updating to 9.310.11 I can no longer enable the web proxy in transparent mode as I get the passthrough6.fw-notify.net error and the proxy shutsdown.

  • strsmatt,
    I had the same issues as you had,

    2015:04:27-11:40:34 sophosutm httpproxy[5759]: id="0003" severity="info" sys="SecureWeb" sub="http" request="(nil)" function="confd_network_filter" file="confd-client.c" line="1851" message="failed to get network: Operation not permitted (req=[{ "id": 399308, "method": "get_object", "params": [ "" ] }])"
    ..... [few more of the same]

    I have resolved this by enabling caching or either disable all exceptions related to caching where tags are used.
    Seemed like it couldn't apply the "do not cache"-function for the sites I tagged as "do not cache", because caching was not enabled.

    Kind regards,
    Frank
  • Frank - do you mean the 'Enable Caching' option under Web Protection -> Filtering Options -> Misc? If so, it's already switched on (apart from SSL content).

    I'm not sure we're using tags, but either way I haven't had this problem since the upgrade to 9.312-8
