Hi @tlinh29071-afk,

Are you setting the Proxy in Settings?
That error appears when Proxyman can’t connect to the internet while checking the license status at the launch time.

Could you check if other Wi-Fi networks are working normally on your device?

All Wi-Fi networks are working normally. Is this related to admin privileges? My account is not an admin account. The admin has configured the settings so that my account can run ProxyMan with admin privileges in order to install the CA Certificate.

It’s not related to admin privileges. Let me double check the logic again 👍🏻

Hi @lbuckl, does it affect your workflow? 🤔
It might be related to the background update check.
If you restart the app and the error disappears, I think that’s fine.

Yes I have problem.
Problem dont solve when i reload proxyman app.
Steps:

  1. I make MapLocal mock
  2. I don't catch error in mock response
  3. Popup this error
  4. I catch error in mock response

@lbuckl I'm not sure why this popup error appears when using the Map Local Tool 🤔 The tool does not have anything to do with this popup error.

Just to clarify the flow:

  1. Create a Map Local entry
  2. Send a request → it gets mapped correctly
  3. Proxyman returns the mock response
  4. Then the popup error appears and you see the error in the console

Is that correct? 🤔

@kics223w1
Yes, correct
MapLocaly works correctly until the pop-up error appears, but it doesn't work correctly afterward pop-up error.
I haven't tested other functionality, but I think that Proxyman works correctly before the error appears.

@lbuckl Sorry for your inconvenience, just to double-check, are you using any VPN or proxy together with Proxyman?

Because Map Local tool doesn't have anything to do with that error, that error is the error from the background update checking, it doesn't have anything to do with Map Local Tool.
