It might be clever to check for this sort of failure and skip the tests. Or maybe to do the tests on a local temporrary http server. -j ----- Forwarded message from Harald Wagener <hwagener@hamburg.fcb.com> ----- Subject: Re: [rt-users] WWW::Mechanize install failure (RT3 & Red Hat 8.0) Cc: "Tavernier, Clayton" <CTavernier@ksplastic.com>, "'rt-users@lists.fsck.com'" <rt-users@lists.fsck.com> To: "Daniel E.

WWW::Mechanize's test does not work well with proxies that require authentication. You don't happen to redirect to such a proxy transparently? Regards, Harald -- Harald Wagener * FCB/Wilkens * An der Alster 42 * 20099 Hamburg Show quoted text

The new version of Mech now checks to see if it can get out live to the net. If not, it'll ask if you want to skip the live tests.
