I am using Piwik 1.9, tried 1.9.1 to resolve but it didn’t help and after troubleshooting I am fairly confident the issue is with our Proxy server, so my question is this…how can I pass a username/pw variable when running the archive.php script? We were recently moved to a proxy server that requries authorization, this has been causing problems in other areas with Plone Buildout, etc. But just noticing a similar type error when trying to run the archive.php script. Troubleshooting on my own, here is what I’m seeing:
ERROR: The Piwik URL http://servername/piwik/index.php does not seem to be pointing to a Piwik server. Response was ‘’.
PHP Fatal error: The Piwik URL http://servername/piwik/index.php does not seem to be pointing to a Piwik server. Response was ‘’. in /var/www/html/piwik/misc/cron/archive.php on line 561
Which is fairly similar to what some other’s have reported…but above this in the output I am also seeing:
[2012-11-02 16:33:38] [6ac351c9] Running as Super User: xxxadmin
[2012-11-02 16:33:40] [6ac351c9] ERROR: Got invalid response from API request: http://servername/piwik/index.php?module=API&method=API.getDefaultMetricTranslations&format=php&trigger=archivephp. Response was ’ Notification: Proxy Authorization Required
I also see this:
Authentication is required to access the Internet using this system. A valid user ID and password must be entered when prompted.
Any help on this would be much appreciated!
