Error: request error from target (GET http://api.ipify.org/

[ghost]

Scrapoxy worked once with me

then after a while, when I run
scrapoxy http://localhost:8888

it returns the following:

2018-02-07T10:23:18.646Z - error: [Test] Error: Cannot get IP address: 500: [Master] Error: request error from target (GET http://api.ipify.org/ on instance 81613183@46.101.79.64:3128): Error: socket hang up

Do you have any idea how to fix this?

Thanks in advance,
Mostafa

Update: it works but not stable! works with some requests but returns error 500 with others!

use amazon aws. It works perfectly.

@law2004 how much does it cost? roughly, don't send me their pricing page :)

[ghost]

@law2004 well, same behavior on AWS :)

I am getting the same error. Works perfectly from my machine using same credentials, but on my server I get the following:

root@server:~ curl --proxy http://localhost:8888 http://api.ipify.org

[Master] Error: request error from target (GET / on instance i-031e7e4af6bdeeda2@34.250.68.251:3128): Error: socket hang up

Looking at the logs:

I'm not sure if this is a firewall issue - I added the following rules to my server running Scrapoxy:

[fabienvauchelles]

hello @wdmtech ,

can you remove all rules and test ?

thanks,
fabien

Hi @fabienvauchelles

Now I'm getting [Master] Error: No running instance found consistently, even though I can see instances with ✅in the GUI

-- edit

Actually, this was not the case, instances seem to keep being removed/added

[wdmtech]

Hmm, instances seem to keep being removed and added. I'm using all the default config, as I just used the Dockerfile method (running on Dokku)

[wdmtech]

It seems that when there's an instance ready to use, curling results in:

[Master] Error: request error from target (GET / on instance i-048e563502f5a44d9@34.246.172.241:3128): Error: socket hang up

[wdmtech]

I have this working now - seems to have been a problem running as a Dokku app instead of a stand-alone Docker container :-)
