[Privoxy-users] WebSocket in Privoxy

Hello,

I am trying to use a web application which uses WebSockets. As a
browser I use Firefox ESR. Privoxy is running locally on my computer
and Firefox is set to send requests to Privoxy. Now I have tried
something around and found that the web application works without
problems if no proxy is configured. When Privoxy is configured, it
stops at `Connection is being established.`. Then after some time the
web application sometimes reports WebSocket error `1006` (no error
text). The web application does not use HTTPS / TLS and therefore
`ws://` and not `wss://`. Firefox itself outputs `Firefox cannot
connect to the server at ws://lg.reseau.mk16.de/ws.` in the developer
console.

Is this due to Privoxy? If yes, is there a workaround? Is it possible
to forward WebSocket connections one-to-one or similar?

I hope I am right here at the Mailling list. I would be glad about an
answer!

Greetings
Marek Küthe
