System Update and proxy config file

Hi,

I'm using X1 Carbon Gen7 and T14 Gen3(intel) both with windows 11 and having trouble using System Update.

If I setup proxy setting as "Use automatic configuration script" which refer to pac file through http, System Update fails with "An error occured during downloading packages."

What I tried to solve are (notice, temporarily allows http transaction without proxy):

- update System Update to the latest manually : same error

- change pac file to only has "function FindProxyForURL(url, host) { return "DIRECT"; }" : same error 

- check off 'use automatic configuration script' : works good

- check off 'use automatic configuration script' and specify the same proxy server manually : works good

 

Thus, it's neither the version problem, the invalid or wrong pac file nor the proxy server issue.  I doubt the behavior of System Update with pac file.

Anyone has similar issue?

 

thanks

Re:System Update and proxy config file

Hello jose_3,

Welcome to Lenovo Community

I understand that you're having issues with the Lenovo System Update whenever you set up the proxy settings with it.
If you need the proxy settings, you may utilize Lenovo Vantage or manually update thru the support site.
You may check this article for Lenovo System Update.
Hope this helps.

Re:System Update and proxy config file

So you mean, System Update actually has issues with proxy settings and use alternative ways if proxy settings are necessary, correct? Ah, okay. Thanks for the help.
