- Browsers
Internet Explorer
and Netscape are supported. Other browsers may not work
equally well. Some ISPs use their own versions of Internet
Explorer (such as AOL or Prodigy). Sometimes these
browsers can present a problem. As an easy workaround, connect
to the Internet using the software provided by the ISP, minimize
the browser session and then launch Microsoft Internet Explorer
or Netscape.
- Pop-Up Blockers
Some database
vendors use pop-up windows when clicking on a link.
Pop-up blocker software prevents these windows from opening.
Disable pop-up blocker software.
- Web Accelerators
Some ISPs, (NetZero,
Google Web Accelerator, Roadrunner, and others) use Web
accelerator software to increase download speed. This has
been known to cause problems. Disable Web accelerator software.
- Database Error
If you receive the following error:
To allow /login?url=http:/www.SomeDatabaseName.com/
to work, your EZproxy administrator must first authorize this
within the ezproxy.cfg file.
Within this database's section of the file, the following line
must be added:
Host
www.SomeDatabaseName.com
The EZproxy server must then be restarted to make this change
take effect.
Database vendors periodically change their configuration.
Please copy and paste the error in our
Comment /
Feedback page. This is a simple fix; but we must know
about it in order to rectify the problem.
