@sdetweil Sadly, no lock with tsocks or proxychains. I had already attempted proxychains, but I kept getting an error and crash when using that, and tsocks doesn’t crash, but I just get the same errors as above. Pretty sure I’ve got everything configured correctly otherwise in their respective conf files, and I’ve tried a few variations just to make sure.

Proxychains:

pi@PI-GW-3BPlus:~/MagicMirror $ proxychains npm run server
ProxyChains-3.1 (http://proxychains.sf.net)

> magicmirror@2.13.0 server /home/pi/MagicMirror
> node ./serveronly

Hello,

Just curious if there was a way to get MagicMirror to retrieve information from servers from behind a proxy. I use a wireless hotspot/PDANet which uses an http/socks proxy to tunnel traffic through. For example, if I use chrome/chromium, I would use

google-chrome --proxy-server=“socks5://192.168.49.1:8000”

and I can get through just fine.

So far, I have tried the following to see if any would work and allow a connection but have had no luck.

#export http_proxy=http://192.168.49.1:8000/
#export https_proxy=192.168.49.1:8000/
#export http_proxy=socks5://192.168.49.1:8000
#export https_proxy=socks5://192.168.49.1:8000
cd MagicMirror
#npm config set proxy socks5://192.168.49.1:8000
#npm config set https-proxy socks5://192.168.49.1:8000
npm config set proxy http://192.168.49.1:8000
npm config set https-proxy http://192.168.49.1:8000
npm run server

and just get this output in the cosole when trying to connect though the proxy:

[2020-11-16 07:36:07.059] [ERROR]  Calendar Error. Could not fetch calendar:  http://www.calendarlabs.com/ical-calendar/ics/76/US_Holidays.ics { Error: getaddrinfo EAI_AGAIN www.calendarlabs.com www.calendarlabs.com:80
