[Dart] Dart Setup Question - Again

[Todd Pitts]

David,


	Thank you for your help (Andy, Dan, and others as well).  I have found
the problem with my setup and thought I should pass it along in case
others have similar issues.  The short story is I configured dart2 as
per the instructions in the Dart.pdf file that comes with 1.0.7.  It
works fine.  The java DartClient.jar can submit.  However, using ctest
as a client did not work -- it got a permission denied error when trying
to contact the server.  The server never gave any indication that it was
begin contacted in its log output.  Using the -VV option gave no more
insight into the problem.  As I mentioned in one of my previous posts -
I brought my network interface down and then tried to submit -- this
time the error indicated it was looking for a proxy on the local
network.  There lies the problem.  Another (unrelated) program required
the environment variable http_proxy to be set to the URL of a local
proxy.  When ctest used curl to submit, it found the environment
variable and tried to contact the proxy looking for my system.  The
proxy said permission denied.  For some reason the DartClient.jar (which
uses curl if I understand correctly) did not use http_proxy.  It would
be helpful the indicate is possible that a proxy is being used for the
ctest client when all of the debugging flags are set.  That way this
problem could be more easily diagnosed when it happens on someones
system in the future.  Working solutions are as follows: 1) unset
http_proxy -- everything works just fine.  2) set the environment
variable NO_PROXY to the name of the host you don't want to lookup
(localhost or your system name or some other system you are running
DartServer.jar on) -- everything works fine.


Thanks again,

Todd
