I just emerged net-proxy/privoxy-3.0.6 and it fails to launch, apparently because of the following configuration error: ================================================= Mar 19 22:25:59 Privoxy(b7d916b0) Info: Privoxy version 3.0.6 Mar 19 22:25:59 Privoxy(b7d916b0) Info: Program name: /usr/sbin/privoxy Mar 19 22:25:59 Privoxy(b7d916b0) Fatal error: can't load actions file '/etc/privoxy/default.action': invalid line (1144): {+fast-redirects -block} ================================================= It seems that changing {+fast-redirects -block} to {+fast-redirects{check-decoded-url} -block} as suggested by P Ruskin works fine. You may want to check this and fix accordingly. -- Regards, Mick Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1./etc/init.d/privoxy start 2. 3. Actual Results: Application fails to launch.
There is no fix to make, because the fix is already in 3.0.6 - try: grep fast-redirects /var/tmp/portage/net-proxy/privoxy-3.0.6/work/privoxy-3.0.6-stable/default.action.master
Thanks Paul, Should I try that while it is compiling? Because I don't seem to have a net-proxy in /var/tmp/portage. -- Regards, Mick
You should run etc-update or dispatch-conf next time... :)
I beg your pardon for the noise, I am sure I did run etc-update and it updated all the privoxy config files. I remember accepting the changes in /etc/privoxy/default.action - perhaps I pressed the wrong button? Anyhow, it works now. -- Regards, Mick
