How to use multiple proxies

[mcantaloube]

Hi i want to use multiple proxies.
Here are my settings:

/opt/splunk/etc/apps/website_monitoring/local/website_monitoring.conf
[default]
proxy_type = http
thread_limit = 200
proxy_port = 8080
proxy_server = 10.1.1.1

[zscaler-eu]
proxy_type = http
thread_limit = 200
proxy_port = 80
proxy_server = 10.1.1.2

/opt/splunk/etc/apps/website_monitoring/local/website_monitoring.conf

[web_ping://www_microsoft_com]
configuration = default
interval = 5m
title = www.microsoft.com (via Proxy1)
url = https://www.microsoft.com
user_agent = Splunk Website Monitoring (+https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/1493/)

[web_ping://www_cisco_com]
configuration = default
interval = 5m
title = www.cisco.com (via Proxy1)
url = https://www.cisco.com
user_agent = Splunk Website Monitoring (+https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/1493/)

[web_ping://www_microsoft_com_zscaler-eu]
configuration=zscaler-eu
interval = 5m
title = www.microsoft.com (via Proxy2)
url = https://www.microsoft.com
user_agent = Splunk Website Monitoring (+https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/1493/)

The config with default proxy is working, but not the second one.
I get the folowing error in the log. The proxy config seems to not be found. (the stanza in inputs.conf is correctly detected: stanza=zscaler-eu)

This appears to be a bug from what I can tell. I opened a bug report to get this fixed (https://lukemurphey.net/issues/2236). I'm planning to get this done for version 2.7 which is pretty close to being done.

Hi thanks a lot for your answer?
Do you have any ETA for this new version ?

I'm going to be conservative and say two and half weeks from now. I'm actually shooting for earlier though (this weekend).
