Univpm Proxy

To find out the port of the proxy server, you just need to use any browser (Yandex Browser, Opera, Google Chrome). Then you need to follow the algorithm:

Start the browser. Go to "Settings". In the search box enter the query "proxy". Click on "Proxy settings". In the window that opens, select "Network settings". This will open a tab with the IP address and port of the proxy server.

You can use Selenium WebDriver to find out the URL of the active tab in the browser. Here's an example using Python with Selenium:

from selenium import webdriver

# Create a WebDriver instance (assuming Chrome in this example)
driver = webdriver.Chrome()

try:
    # Navigate to a website
    driver.get("https://www.example.com")

    # Get the URL of the active tab
    current_url = driver.current_url
    print("URL of the active tab:", current_url)

    # Perform other actions as needed

finally:
    # Close the browser window
    driver.quit()

In this example:

• driver.get("https://www.example.com") navigates to a specific website.
• driver.current_url retrieves the URL of the currently active tab.

Make sure to replace "https://www.example.com" with the actual URL you want to navigate to.

Keep in mind that this method retrieves the URL of the currently active tab. If you have multiple tabs open and you want to switch between them, you can use the driver.window_handles method to get a list of window handles and then switch to the desired window. For example:

# Open a new tab or window
driver.execute_script("window.open('about:blank', '_blank');")

# Switch to the newly opened tab
driver.switch_to.window(driver.window_handles[1])

# Get the URL of the active tab
new_tab_url = driver.current_url
print("URL of the new tab:", new_tab_url)

This code opens a new tab, switches to it, and then retrieves the URL of the new tab.

If you can't proxy requests in Scrapy:

- Verify correct proxy configuration in Scrapy settings.
- Confirm proxy functionality with external tools.
- Check for typos or errors in your code and settings.
- Ensure proxy authentication details are correct.
- Test with a direct internet connection to isolate the issue.
- Check for IP blocking by the target website.
- Confirm proper configuration of the HttpProxyMiddleware.
- Use Scrapy logging to inspect requests and responses.
- Ensure your proxy supports HTTPS if needed.
- Test with a single, static proxy for simplicity.
- Keep Scrapy and dependencies up to date.
- Consider using middleware libraries like scrapy-rotating-proxies.

Open the "Browser Properties" in the control panel, in the "Connections" section of the opened window select "Network Settings". Remove the check mark from the "Use proxy" item, click "OK".

There are HTTP proxy, FTP proxy, SOCKS proxy, SMTP proxy, CGI proxy. They differ only in the data transmission protocol used and the purpose for which they are used. For example, SMTP proxy allows you to organize a secure server for e-mail.
