Summary: syncevolution doesn't use libproxy; fails to connect
Classification: MeeGo Platform
Product: OS Middleware
Version: 1.0
Platform: All
Architecture: ---
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Undecided
Component: SyncEvolution
AssignedTo: patrick.ohly(a)intel.com
ReportedBy: dwmw2(a)linux.intel.com
QAContact: jingke.zhang(a)intel.com
CC: syncevolution-bugs(a)meego.bugs
Blocks: 1508
Estimated Hours: 0.0
Syncevolution doesn't use libproxy to find current proxy information as
provided by ConnMan; it seems to be looking at the static settings in gconf.
And even when those are *correct*, it's broken -- it seems to connect to port
*zero* of the host which GConf tells it is serving the proxy PAC script.

Hm, it is using the proxy resolver from libsoup-gnome, which would have worked.
But then it's *overriding* the proxy with the string
'pac+http://autoproxy.intel.com/'.
Soup doesn't recognise 'pac+http' as a URL scheme, and that's probably
what
leads to the attempt to contact port 0.
I can't quite work out where it's pulling that bogus override string from.
This is also happening in MeeGo 1.1.

Is it perhaps somewhere in your SyncEvolution config (proxyHost) or environment
(http_proxy). Those override the automatism in libsoup, if set (which normally
they shouldn't be in MeeGo).
I cannot think of any other reason why SyncEvolution should set the proxy
information.

"syncevolution --print-configs" gives a list of configurations and their

summarizes
all relevant options for a config (takes properties from multiple files).

http://opensource.intel.com/linux-wiki/MeeGoITBuild
I tried to reproduce it, but half-way through the install process realized that
it would probably only occur when inside Intel. At home, I cannot even set up
the Intel specific part of that image - at least not easily. I know about the
tricks with routing traffic through a connected machine, but that's too
involved for now. I'll be in the Ulm site tomorrow and will try again there.

You don't have to route through a connected machine. Just use 'openconnect
--cookieonly' to get a VPN cookie on another machine, then use connman's
connect-vpn script to *connect* using that cookie from your test box.
Note that you have to transfer ~/.cert/intel-certchain.crt from your existing
machine to the MeeGo box, so that openconnect can validate the server's SSL
certificate. Then:
/usr/lib/connman/test/connect-vpn openconnect "my VPN" $SERVERIP intel.com
$COOKIE /where/you/put/intel-certchain.crt
You can ssh into the machine as root using the password 'meego' while it's
sitting at the firstboot screen. There's no way to make it tell you its IP
addresses from the UI, so watch for it doing mDNS or note its IP address before
you reinstall it (for IPv6 at least it should have a constant address; for
Legacy IP there are a lot of buggy DHCP servers out there which will move it
around).

I found that getenv("http_proxy") returns the
"pac+http://autoproxy.intel.com"
string. But is indeed not in the environment. That leaves a setenv() call at
runtime, and indeed, here it is:
Breakpoint 1, __setenv (name=0x4285a353 "http_proxy", value=0x82d56a8
"pac+http://autoproxy.intel.com/",
replace=1) at setenv.c:268
268 if (name == NULL || *name == '\0' || strchr (name, '=') != NULL)
(gdb) where
#0 __setenv (name=0x4285a353 "http_proxy", value=0x82d56a8
"pac+http://autoproxy.intel.com/", replace=1)
at setenv.c:268
#1 0x417e0b52 in g_setenv () from /lib/libglib-2.0.so.0
#2 0x4285913a in ?? () from /usr/lib/libsoup-gnome-2.4.so.1
#3 0x428595d4 in ?? () from /usr/lib/libsoup-gnome-2.4.so.1
#4 0x4285975c in ?? () from /usr/lib/libsoup-gnome-2.4.so.1
#5 0x41880be4 in g_type_create_instance () from /lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0
#6 0x41879047 in ?? () from /lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0
#7 0x4187954c in g_object_newv () from /lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0
#8 0x41879714 in g_object_new () from /lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0
#9 0x42cca3bd in soup_session_add_feature_by_type () from
/usr/lib/libsoup-2.4.so.1
#10 0x42f9f543 in SyncEvo::SoupTransportAgent::SoupTransportAgent (this=<value
optimized out>,
loop=<value optimized out>) at SoupTransportAgent.cpp:48
SyncEvolution then picks up that value and passes it to libsoup again.
Note that I wasn't even connected to the Intel intranet while doing the run
above. Therefore the sync failed with:
[INFO] SoupTransport Failure: https://m.google.com/syncml via libsoup: Cannot
resolve proxy hostname
I don't know why libsoup does that. /system/proxy/autoconfig_url is set to
http://autoproxy.intel.com, but /system/http_proxy/use_http_proxy is off.
Any suggestions how this should be fixed? Move the http_proxy check in
SyncEvolution to a point before libsoup has a chance to mess with the
environment? That feels like working around the issue instead of fixing it,
because other apps invoked indirectly will still inherit the wrong environment.

Somehow I get the same "cannot connect to proxy host" even while VPN is up.
There's no telnet installed (or available?!), but Chrome has no problem
accessing http:://autoproxy.intel.com. Is it the pac+http scheme which is
causing that problem?

I'm confused. libsoup-gnome should only be doing this crappy setenv thing if
it's using a *really* old version of libproxy:
AC_MSG_CHECKING(libproxy version)
libproxy_version=`$PKG_CONFIG --modversion libproxy-1.0`
case $libproxy_version in
0.2.*)
AC_MSG_RESULT([$libproxy_version, using workarounds...])
AC_DEFINE(HAVE_LIBPROXY_WITH_NON_THREAD_SAFE_GNOME_MODULE, 1,
[Defined if libproxy is old and has a non-thread-safe gnome module])
/* If we have a "bad" libproxy, set environment variables
* and force it to use them.
*/
#ifdef HAVE_LIBPROXY_WITH_NON_THREAD_SAFE_GNOME_MODULE
g_setenv ("PX_CONFIG_ORDER", "envvar", TRUE);
if (http_proxy)
g_setenv ("http_proxy", http_proxy, TRUE);
We have never had libproxy 0.2 in MeeGo, although now we're using PacRunner it
may advertise itself as 0.1.

(In reply to comment #0)
And even when those are *correct*, it's broken -- it seems to
connect to port
*zero* of the host which GConf tells it is serving the proxy PAC script.
That answers my previous question about "cannot connect to proxy host". It
seems that pac+http leads to "let's try port 0". Setting port 80 in the
autoconfig_url gets me beyond that, but then it fails with:
[INFO] SoupTransport Failure: https://m.google.com/syncml via libsoup:
Connection terminated unexpectedly
I have not done any network dumps to investigate that further.

Fixed in libsoup commit 25bfd5cbcfb93b94efc7c0f6f0d4bbfa51244e42
Although ideally we should just drop libproxy completely and talk D-Bus
directly to pacrunner.

Submitted to Trunk too, but it was pointlessly rejected. Apparently we need a
*separate* bug filed against Trunk, and the changelog there must reference
*that* bug, so the Trunk and 1.1 packages would be gratuitously different
despite having exactly the same code.
Clever.
Really, this is not the way to build a community and encourage people to
contribute.
