[Forwarding since this address isn't subscribed to the list. I also
took the liberty of changing the subject line -- I suspect the problem
is that you had an old install of the Vidalia bundle on your OS X, and
you tried to upgrade to the new drag-and-drop one. You should instead
uninstall the old one, and install the new one fresh. The specific
problem here is that if you upgrade wrong, Vidalia doesn't learn the
correct command-line arguments to use when it launches Polipo. -RD]

Subject:  Torbutton proxy test fails
Date:  Tue, 24 Nov 2009 11:36:16 +0100

Hello,

I installed the latest stable Vidalia bundle (0.2.1.20-0.2.6) on mac os 10.6.2, 
Tor starts but Torbutton's test fails.

polipo is listening on port 8123, so i did replace 8118 by 8123 in Torbutton 
prefs, to no avail.

I removed privoxy stuff like /Library/Privoxy manually.

Does it ring a bell ?
