| + | When connecting to the outside one can use proxy server to avoid part of the risk of being infected by using a list of trusted sites where you are connecting, in that case even if a website is infected, it won't be able to download the infection kit. | ||
| + | On a server that stuff has to be configured in serveral places so i-mscp can use it, here are the places where you will have to configure the navigation proxy in order for it to work. | ||

| - | ==== Curl ==== | + | ==== I-mscp engine ==== |
| - | i-mscp relies on curl to download the information from the internet, so instead of integrating everything into i-mscp, it downloads some components (such as roundcube or phpmyadmin from their upstream projects. | + | The perl engine of i-mscp installer relies on curl to download the information from the internet. |
| To configurate curl through a proxy, you will have to create a file /root/.curlrc with a content like this: | To configurate curl through a proxy, you will have to create a file /root/.curlrc with a content like this: | ||
| proxy = http://user:[email protected]:3128 | proxy = http://user:[email protected]:3128 | ||
| + | |||
| + | This is used to retrieve all the imscp addons (core components not directly developed by i-MSCP team) such as Roundcube, PhpMyAdmin or AjaxPlorer. More info [[http://forum.i-mscp.net/Thread-INFO-Enhancement-i-MSCP-tools-are-now-available-on-packagist-org|here]] | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== Environment variables ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | The variable http_proxy needs to be exported so composer can download the packages (see [[http://getcomposer.org/doc/03-cli.md#http-proxy-or-http-proxy|here]]) | ||
| + | You can either set the variables prior installing/upgrading i-mspcp | ||
| + | http_proxy = http://user:[email protected]:3128 | ||
| + | https_proxy = http://user:[email protected]:3128 | ||
| + | Or add those same lines at the end of .bashrc (so the proxy will be enabled every time you log in) | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | ==== Software packages ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | They are downloaded currently via file_get_contents(), using a proxy is more complex with this option, the approach in that case should be something like [[http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1336262/file-get-contents-behind-a-proxy|this]] | ||
| + | Still it's not strictly necessary for the standard install. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== Typical issues ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | If you see an error like this: | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | [ERROR] | ||
| + | Error while performing step: | ||
| + | Addons pre-installation | ||
| + | Error was: | ||
| + | iMSCP::Addons::Composerinstaller::installPackages: | ||
| + | [Composer\Downloader\TransportException] | ||
| + | The "http://packagist.org/p/imscp/..... .......json" file could not be downloaded: failed to open stream connection timed out | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | It's probably that you haven't exported the http_proxy and https_proxy environment variables. | ||
