Unfortunately calibre doesn't have a way to manually specify proxy information if autodetection fails.

In the next release, I'll have calibre ignore invalid proxies, that should fix your problem, at least at home.

Having same issues with both fetching of news and meta data resulting in :
"httplib.InvalidURL: nonnumeric port: '3128/'" As far as I can tell the proxy is not being used at present by my system i.e. it set to Direct Internet Connection" in network proxy preferences. Running : Calibre 0.6.24 Ubuntu 9.04 How does one find out where/when Calibre gathers this proxy information for proxy settings? |

Here is my problem, I can confirm that the http_proxy var is empty, yet when Calibre starts it reads it out.. also i chked usual suspects who set this var.. |
