Proxying timing out, no results

I've set up TCP proxying to record Firefox traffic, using the instructions here:
http://grinder.sourceforge.net/g3/tcpproxy.html#HTTPPluginTCPProxyFilter


I'm starting it from a batch file - here is the input and output:


C:\grinder-3.9.1>java -cp C:\grinder-3.9.1\lib\grinder.jar;C:\grinder-3.9.1\lib\
grinder.jar;C:\grinder-3.9.1\lib net.grinder.TCPProxy -console -http -timeout 20
1>grinder.py
08:38:08.337 [main] INFO : Initialising as an HTTP/HTTPS proxy with the parameters:
Request filters: HTTPRequestFilter
Response filters: HTTPResponseFilter
Local address: localhost:8001
08:38:10.928 [main] INFO : Engine initialised, listening on port 8001
08:38:30.989 [main] ERROR: Listen time out
08:38:32.808 [main] INFO : Engine exited


I've tried increasing the time, but it still just times out. I've set up Firefox to proxy to localhost 8001, as per instructions.


Is there anything else I should look out for?


thanks

Re: Proxying timing out, no results

The TCPProxy is timing out because nothing has been received from Firefox. If you don't want it to timeout, remove the -timeout completely.

Re: Proxying timing out, no results

That doesn't address the issue of nothing being seen though? My point wasn't so much the timeout as that no output is recorded - nothing is echoed to the CMD window and nothing written to the output py file.


I'm just making some simple page requests as a basic sanity check (wiki and so on)

Re: Proxying timing out, no results

scratch that. My misunderstanding - nothing was echoed out during script creation, but after stopping proxying, it was. Thanks for the help!
