Etc Proxy

Open the torrent and through the "Menu" enter the subsection "Connection". Under "Proxy" choose a proxy type (Socks5 is best). In the box "Proxy" put IP address of your proxy, and in the "Port" box, respectively, the port of your proxy. If you are going to use proxy authentication, you will have to give your name and password in the corresponding fields. Click "Apply".

It means that now all the traffic is sent to a VPN server (which can be an ordinary proxy). This is a kind of warning that the remote server can now collect data. Therefore, you should use only well-tested VPN services.

Proxy autoconfiguration is a feature that allows a client to automatically discover and configure the settings required to connect to a proxy server. This is typically done using a configuration file or script that provides instructions on how to set up the client's proxy settings.

The most common format for proxy autoconfiguration is the Proxy Auto-Config (PAC) file. A PAC file is a JavaScript file that contains functions to determine the appropriate proxy server(s) to use for a given URL or network condition. When a client is configured to use a PAC file, it will automatically execute the PAC script to determine the best proxy server for each request.

Another format for proxy autoconfiguration is the Web Proxy Autodiscovery Protocol (WPAD). WPAD uses a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) option or a Domain Name System (DNS) query to locate a configuration script (usually named "wpad.dat") that contains the proxy settings. The client then executes the script to determine the appropriate proxy server(s) to use.

Proxy autoconfiguration makes it easier for clients to connect to the correct proxy server without manual configuration, especially in large organizations or networks where proxy settings may change frequently. It also allows for centralized management of proxy settings, making it simpler to update or change configurations across the entire network.

If you can't download images in Scrapy:

- Check the image pipeline configuration in settings.py.
- Verify HTTPS compatibility and install the certifi package if necessary.
- Confirm the correctness of XPath or CSS selectors for image URLs.
- Ensure image URLs are in the correct format; log URLs for inspection.
- Handle redirects by setting REDIRECT_ENABLED = True.
- Check and set appropriate HTTP headers in your Scrapy spider.
- Adjust the CONCURRENT_REQUESTS setting to avoid server restrictions.
- Verify correct configuration of the ImagesPipeline.
- Inspect the downloaded images in the specified IMAGES_STORE directory.
- Implement exception handling in your spider to catch download errors.

Start the program and add a template. Click on it twice to open a window. Here you need to specify the path to the file with the proxy and save the settings. Enter the following format in the file: HTTPS - 195.3.218.232:8000 - if the proxy is bound to your IP, or login:[email protected]:8000 - if you use a proxy with username and password authentication. Under "Settings" click on "Default", or fill everything in manually, and then confirm the changes you made.
