[VuFind-Tech] proxy and ILS circulation data

[Cornelison, L. - 1. - M. <cor...@ll...>]

Happy New Year!

We have an HTTP proxy firewall at our institution.  After installing RC1, I configured the config.ini file for the proxy server – and starting load book cover images from Syndetics through the firewall for the first time ever.

However, at the same time, the AJAX circulation info feature stopped working for me.
When I look at the XML output via the Firefox Firebug plug-in, I see that the Sirsi driver file seems to be getting hung up – a 502 error  --  and I wonder if the file_get_contents transactions are also trying to go through the same external firewall.

A response for a 6-title search looks like this.   Any opinions on what is going on here?
