endeler Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 Sorry for doubleposting, but I thought this could be worth a separate thread. The proxied access to utorrent webui seems to be a tough one according to many posts in this forum. I am struggling as well in order to get my webui to work. I have an apache that forwards the requests to the utorrent client. I want to access for example torrent.domain.com, which then gets forwarded to internal:port/gui. This is a quiet easy one in apache:-- RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^/$ /gui [R] AddDefaultCharset Off ProxyPass /gui http://internal:port/gui ProxyPassReverse /gui http://internal:port/gui--While everything works fine with Firefox, IE7 brings up the page "loading..." followed by a popup "The request to uTorrent has timed out". I followed all your advice in all the different threads and still need your help in order to get that to work in IE7. I love the interface by the way; amazing work!!! Thanks for any help!!

Ultima Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 This problem looks familiar, but I'm not sure there was ever any solution... :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Directrix Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 What happens when you request http://torrent.domain.com/?list=1 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endeler Posted September 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 All I get is a crippled set of characters... in both Firefox and IE7.I've just tried to reverse proxy the webui through squid 3; it is exactly the same problem as in apache2. My guess is some speciality in webui... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 O.o?list=1 should return the JSON containing all the torrent jobs and related details :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endeler Posted September 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 This is correct, that's what it returns. Sorry, I did not analyze the data since it looked corrupted to me. Now that we know that it is the JSON payload... does that lead us to somewhere? Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 It tells us that µTorrent is responding properly, even with IE7. If I had to blame anything, I'd blame IE7's slow handling of JavaScript, which *maybe* causes timeout-like behavior? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endeler Posted September 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 You may be right, it must be something like that, IE7 sucks in many ways. So basically there is no solution that is in your mind if I understand you right? Thank you so much for your support! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 Um, maybe you can try messing with IE7's timeout settings? I'm not sure where they might be, though... most likely the Windows Registry? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Alderaan Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 Well I thought I had it working with IE7 through a Apache Reverse Proxy. I don't have a IE7 machine around so I can't test right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endeler Posted September 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 In case you'll have one around later on... please let me know; I'd appreciate that. Thanks!Update: Lord Alderaan: Still no IE7 around to test? I'd like to know so bad ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ray73864 Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 I have a machine running IE7, i too am also using Apache2 as a reverse proxy, eg: bt.mydomain.tld, and when i go to 'http://bt.mydomain.tld/gui' it asks me for my username and password, i give it that, and then it just comes up with 'loading' and never leaves that.Apparently there are javascript errors (well, 1 error that IE7 reports), located on:line 2char 45774Error: Object expectedCode 0url: http://bt.mydomain.tld/guiline 2char 12823Error: Object expectedCode 0url: http://bt.mydomain.tld/guiif i go to ?list=1 i just get a 502 proxy error Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 Eh if you have to visit /gui to get some kind of output, then you're not setting your proxy up correctly to redirect (if that was your aim). And in that case, you're going to have to visit /gui/?list=1 (not just /?list=1). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
