Hey! I was in the same boat a while back. Using curl with proxy can be tricky if you don’t know what to look for. One common mistake is not setting the proxy type correctly. If you’re using an HTTP proxy, make sure your curl command reflects that. Also, always check if the proxy is alive before running your script. Tools like ProxyChecker can help with that.
For testing, I usually run a simple curl command to a site like http://ifconfig.me to see if the proxy IP shows up. If it doesn’t, double-check your credentials and port numbers. Hope this helps!
