Selenium Wire not working with zyte-smartproxy-headless-proxy

Dear selenium-wire,

I have been using proxy running in my localhost port 3128 and it is working in normal selenium.

I guess that the command: chrome_options.add_argument("--proxy-server=localhost:3128") for selenium-wire is not working.

Any idea of solving this?

Thanks a lot

@AndreuJove , @wkeeling had the same issue, managed to fix it by pip3 install -U cryptography. Cryptography module was outdated.

hey everyone! I’m Júlio e developer from Zyte and I’ve been investigating the issue over the last couple of days. It is not related to our servers, but related to a library we developed to link the containers with our servers to store the scraping results.

In this library we call socket.setdefaulttimeout which seems to cause some issues with pyOpenSSL I’ve created an issue on our library to investigate if we can overcome it somehow https://github.com/scrapinghub/scrapinghub-entrypoint-scrapy/issues/62

In that issue you’ll find a link to the issue in pyOpenSSL and it seems they provide some approaches to fix the issue when using pyOpenSSL. Maybe you can check if it makes sense to add this fix to selenium-wire as well as it will fail in any case that the user called socket.setdefaulttimeout
