Server not closing

[therepo90]

using closeAnonymizedProxy without callback and using 'await' hangs and never closes the server.
version : latest
repro: example with anonymized proxy util function + add closeAnonymizedProxy at the end(before or after browser.close)

System : windows

Have you tried to set the closeConnections parameter to true? If it's false, the function waits until all connections are closed, which can take an infinitely long time.

Tried to do it but now for some reason I keep getting:
Unhandled rejection Error: listen EACCES: permission denied 0.0.0.0:49685
even though nothing is running on this port and im using admin rights
Ill make another issue for that

[Jan Čurn]

Is that the same error as in #38 ?

[therepo90]

No, I can't test this issue until the other is resolved :P

I came here to report the same issue. Here is the anonymizeProxy code snippet from the README...

const proxyChain = require('proxy-chain');

(async() => {
    const oldProxyUrl = '----------------:------------------@-----------:4444';
    const newProxyUrl = await proxyChain.anonymizeProxy(oldProxyUrl);

    // Prints something like "http://127.0.0.1:45678"
    console.log(newProxyUrl);

    const browser = await puppeteer.launch({
        args: [`--proxy-server=${newProxyUrl}`],
    });

    // Do your magic here...
    const page = await browser.newPage();
    await page.goto('https://www.example.com');
    await page.screenshot({ path: 'example.png' });
    await browser.close();
    await proxyChain.closeAnonymizedProxy(proxyUrl, true)
})();

I added the closeAnonymizedProxy call to show that even with that, the node process does not exit. I have to manually call process.exit() to get it to end.

I recommend using the second example for now until its resolved(it was sufficient for my needs) and server.close(or just process end) :

Run a HTTP/HTTPS proxy server with credentials and upstream proxy

what is the second example, I have errors all ports are used after some time because the anonymized proxy does not close

[Jan Čurn]

I realized the following statement in your code:

await proxyChain.closeAnonymizedProxy(proxyUrl, true)

contains proxyUrl instead of newProxyUrl. Please, can you fix it and try again, ideally with the newest release?
