Save as Daisy - Proxy error

[Alibobz]

We are trying to deploy Save-As-Daisy, everything seems to install ok. All clients are required to authenticate to a proxy server. When choosing to save as "DAISY XML (from Single docx)" we get the option to "Export to DTbook XML," I fill out the Title, Publisher then Output Folder then click Translate, a few seconds later an error is returned stating "The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required." If I bypass the proxy the application successfully completes.

Can you tell me why the application is using the proxy & what it is trying to access? Also, can the plugin be configured to not require an internet connection?

Thanks.

Hi, thanks for your feedback.

If i recall, the application might access the internet to check for validation files (dtds) but i'm not sure at 100%.
The plugin currently rely on a Microsoft component to apply transformations and I think it is this component that tries to check for public dtds online.
I'll do some investigation and see if i can reproduce the error to confirm and to see if we can provide a fix to disable the internet connection issue through a setting.

Hi,

Adding Daisy.org as a proxy bypass works around this issue.

Should be fixed by commit fba3588 :
I tested it with wireshark running and no http requests to W3C and Daisy domain was detected
