    Yes I did read the reports I dont understand half of the jargen there
    but managed to find a sample config file that should work I have
    configured my file the same. I did discovered that the http_proxy port
    was missing and fixed it, I have tried again and it still does the same.
    That is why I reverted to giving up on it and trying everything the
    manual way.
    But I am back now so lets see.
