Configuring proxy settings for Google Chrome on Linux
How do I configure proxy settings for Chrome on Linux? It doesn't have a configuration interface like Firefox. I'd like to configure it in a way that I don't have to type every time, the login and password.
EDIT: I'm using Fluxbox as my window manager.
Try the --proxy-server
command line option, and/or http_proxy
environment variable.
google-chrome-stable --proxy-server="http://example.com:8080"
Also, Chrome/Chromium makes use of xdg scripts, so you can try configuring the proxy server in GNOME/KDE, and set up xdg scripts to use settings of the desktop environment. That is how I solved MIME-type file associations at least.
run this as root gedit /usr/share/applications/google-chrome.desktop
then add your proxy settings as you would like ie --proxy-server="http://127.0.0.1:8080"
then save and run chrome .
