Komodo issue

[Cyrus Ghalambor]

I'm trying to make an http conenction (to scrape a website) from within
Komodo and am getting a ECONNREFUSED error:

Example:
require "open-uri"
open("http://www.yahoo.com")

But I can open a terminal session and use the ruby interpreter and make
the http connection and get a complete response back from the site. What
do you think the problem here could be?

Hi Paul,

I introduced a new thread because the old thread somehow implied that
there may be a problem with a setting on my machine or general network
environement. The latest test shows that not to be the case and strongly
points to Komodo as the culprit.

I am behind a firewall, but not sure if I'm behind a proxy. And I've
checked to make sure Komodo is set up for direct internet access (i.e.
no proxy). Also, in the original thread I tried to make it clear that
the site we're talking about is Yahoo or Google which are always up. And
that I don't have a problem browsing.

Thanks for your time.

I reinstalled Komodo (and made sure to remove all the prefs) and now it
works. Thanks everyone for your help in resolving this.
