Unable to pull bzr.dev

[dhruva-3]

Hello,
 I am using bzr from the development repository. I am getting this error repeatedly. I am able to browse the repo link on my browser though.

[dk]bzr pull
Using saved parent location: http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.dev/
bzr: ERROR: Connection error: while sending POST http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.dev/.bzr/smart: [Errno 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it

Thats interesting that you get a connection error - I would have
expected a HTTP error code though.

please try
bzr pull nosmart+http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.dev

Cheers,

Hello,
 I get the same error. I tried doing a clone and still get the same error! This is happening from yesterday, I keep updating on a regular basis. I am using bzr with Activestate Python 2.61 on WXP.

 I tried 'bzr branch' and face the same problem. This is not bzr.dev repo specific, I even tried bzrtools repo and get the same error.

Hello,
 I found out the problem area. It is nothing related to bzr code and apologies for misleading the folks here. I had installed privoxy (a proxy server to filter ads) and modified "Internet Options" in IE to use it as a proxy server. I removed privoxy as I did not need it. Since I use FireFox mostly, I did not go and revert the "Internet Options" to connect to internet directly. Now, bzr uses the IE setting to establish the connection and I was clueless. I always assumed that it had its own setting somewhere to specify the proxy if required! Once I set IE to connect to internet directly, bzr started working!
 IMHO, I feel we should use a bzr specific setting for proxies and not depend on browser based setting.

Perhaps something is wrong with your HTTP proxy setting?  That could explain
a connection refused error.  Can you access repositories via e.g. bzr+ssh://
rather than http:// ?
