[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 878830] Re: banshee crashes on scrobbling when last.fm is unreachable

[Fabian Schicker]

Over one year after this bug report, I experience the same problem. My
proxy automatically disconnects me after 2 hours and redirects all
request to a login page. When banshee tries to to scrobble between
logout and new login, it crashes.

Title:
  banshee crashes on scrobbling when last.fm is unreachable

Status in “banshee” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 11.10
  Banshee version 2.2.0-1ubuntu2

  When playing a song, and a couple of seconds have passed, banshee
  tries to contact the last.fm servers.

  However, the lastfm domain is blocked from a corporate proxy, such as Cisco Websense.
  Websense uses HTTP 302 redirection to an "Access denied" page.

  ***
  krastin at kamelot:~$ telnet last.fm 80
  Trying 195.24.232.203...
  Connected to last.fm.
  Escape character is '^]'.
  GET / HTTP/1.0

  HTTP/1.0 302 Moved
  Location: http://192.168.XX.XX:15871/cgi-bin/blockpage.cgi?ws-session=2952799450
  Pragma: no-cache
  Cache-Control: no-cache

  Connection closed by foreign host.
  ***

  Thus Banshee crashes when (apparently) it tries to connect the servers
  for the second time.

  If I disable the Last.FM Scrobbling extension, all plays fine and no
  crashes occur.

  I attach the banshee output log.
