cannot get Capture one activated Error HTTP-Status 417:

Ulrich Wanner-Laufer
No problem with my private laptop but I cannot get the software activated at work, IT guys checked the firewall and according to them this is not the problem...

Any ideas?

    Your office is probably running a proxy. Simply put - you'll need access to a more direct outside line (so to speak) to the internet from within your office. Probably not feasible or allowed by your office - until so authorised by IT/Management/ThePowersThatBe;~/


    Fielding, et al. Standards Track [Page 49]

    RFC 2616 HTTP/1.1 June 1999


    - If the proxy knows that the version of the next-hop server is
    HTTP/1.0 or lower, it MUST NOT forward the request, and it MUST
    respond with a 417 (Expectation Failed) status.

    - Proxies SHOULD maintain a cache recording the HTTP version
    numbers received from recently-referenced next-hop servers.

    - A proxy MUST NOT forward a 100 (Continue) response if the
    request message was received from an HTTP/1.0 (or earlier)
    client and did not include an Expect request-header field with
    the "100-continue" expectation. This requirement overrides the
    general rule for forwarding of 1xx responses (see section 10.1).

    I am bypassing the proxy and still it does not work, we check tomorrow what the firewall is doing

    Solved: apparently the firewall was bouncing requests and re-directed them
