FlashFXP and firewall

james · #1 17th Sep 02, 09:53 AM

When FlashFXP try to connect returns with the following error:

<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>500 Proxy Error</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY><H1>Proxy Error</H1>The server was unable to complete your
request.

Error message:
can not make tunel with the next
chained proxy

<HR>
<ADDRESS>Proxy Server at APPLETTRAP:8080</ADDRESS>
Connection failed
Anyone knows if it is possible to overcome and how above error?
thanks

I see to (maybe too obvious) possible problems; port 8080 must be opened for outgoing traffic on your firewall, and I don't think the name APPLETTRAP can be resolved.

Also, set the proxy type to HTTP Proxy, that the type that uses port 8080.

Hope this helps. . .
