I am trying to access the web via a proxy server in Python. I am using the requests library and I am having an issue with authenticating my proxy as the proxy I am using requires a password.
proxyDict = {
'http' : 'username:mypassword@77.75.105.165',
'https' : 'username:mypassword@77.75.105.165'
}
r = requests.get("http://www.google.com", proxies=proxyDict)
I am getting the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#13>", line 1, in <module>
r = requests.get("http://www.google.com", proxies=proxyDict)
File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\requests\api.py", line 78, in get

ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: 'h6f2v6jh5dsxa@77.75.105.165'
How do I solve this?
Thanks in advance for your help.
