Hello Simon, what exactly is the error you are seeing? Does Px not run at all, fail on connections, or something else? It will help to run with logging to see what exactly is happening. |

Hello @genotrance , So I tested this out a bit and found some issues again with my request. Now I can see the logs: I triggered this by connecting my browser to the proxy url and opened google.com. I can see in the logs, that the authentication failed, but the password and user are correct. (Tested it with same settings on Windows with PX and worked fine): So I assume the issue is somwhere PX and the gnome keystore. Greetings Simon |

Looks like you haven't set your username in px.ini.
Px needs this info to go get the password from keyring. Without this, it has no clue it needs to do that and for which user. So it will resort to SSPI and that's not available on Linux. |

Hey @genotrance, thanks for the support, now it works. I tried this out on my WSL. Also have posted below my images, so anyone can use it. Just got one more question: I moved the exact same compose file + image on a linux server (Red Hat). This then results in a auth issue, but creds are all correct, since I just copied everything from my Ubuntu WSl to a linux server. Full log Thanks again for the support and Simon |

SummaryPX works great in a docker container 🥳I finally made it working, wanted to share the result with everyone, so you can get the docker image here in case anyone is interested in this: https://hub.docker.com/r/nobody1997/px-proxy How to create the imageThere were some components involved:
Bringing that all togetherDockerfile: run.py: px.ini Then start it all up with docker compose: See docs here: https://hub.docker.com/r/nobody1997/px-proxy Thank you again @genotrance for helping me out here. |

Great work! I'd suggest also having an env var for Also, maybe instead of setting pass via env, you could setup the keyring data on the host and share the keyring folder via Docker. See build.sh: Line 227 in faaa57c Not sure if this will be good for everyone since it would require every user to setup keyring on their main system. |

Px now ships official Docker images. Hope this makes life easier for some users. |

Installing PX Proxy in a Docker Container | Issues installing it
Hello all,
maybe someone can support me here, I am trying to set the new PX Proxy for linux up in a Docker Container.
Therefore I've created a Dockerfile to install all the necessary dependencies as well as PX itself:
Since I need to hand in the keystore settings, I did that with a simple python script, to run everything at the startup of the container (see last CMD execute).
The python script looks like this (of course myuser and mypass are placeholders for my real password ;)):
Also I hand in a PX.ini to configure the whole PX proxy:
Bringing all this now in the build together, these files are all called on container startup to run it in the same subshell (also shown in Dockerfile, but want to highlight it again):
CMD dbus-run-session -- sh && echo 'somecredstorepass' | gnome-keyring-daemon --unlock && python3 /home/run.py && px --config=/etc/px.iniI use the password
somecredstorepassand did not change it. I haven't seen that I need to pass this value somehow to PX, do I?After now building this image and starting up as privileged container due to keyring
Run:
docker run --privileged -p 3128:3128 px_test:2.0I still do not manage to get PX running successfully.
Does anyone have an Idea what am I doing wrong?
Already had some troubles with the headless install of keyring, but it seems like to work.
I appreciate any Feedback!
Thanks and cheers!
Simon
