DIY: Make Your Own Proxy Server
In this tutorial, you will be able to create your own proxy server without having your own domain. You may find many PHP scripts for the proxy servers, but than you need to have your own server for hosting the scripts.
Here I will be making a proxy server on the domain appspot.com ,which is a google application hosting domain ( http://appengine.google.com ).
There will be 8 Steps to create your own proxy server.
Step 1:- Download the python for the windows from python.org ( Download ) and install into your PC.
Step 2:- Download Google App Engine for the Python ( Download). and install in your PC .
Step 3:- Now you Go to the installed Google App engine :- Go to Edit-Prefrences and hit enter. Set the path of the python.
The path of python will be provided in the preferences panel,
On my System Python and Google App Engine is installed in the G:/ Drive, so i provided their path..
Step 4 :- Now, you have to SIGN IN for your Google Application. Go to the appengine.goolge.com with your Google Account credentials.
Step 5:- Give the name of your Proxy server ( you can give any name available under appspot.com) and remember the name because you have to use that name afterward.
My Unique ID is “openhippo-proxy-server “. You can also Choose unique ID.
Step6:- Now Download the Script from here :- Download Script , Extract these files in the directory to your Google App Engine.
I had extracted to G:\Program Files\Google\google_appengine\launcher\openhippo proxy\
Step7:- Ok, Now you RUN the Google App Engine. Go to the Files- Add Existing Application and hit enter. Here you browse the Folder in which you downloaded all the script of step6.
Step8. Now you go to the EDIT option and give your App ID , (‘ openhippo-proxy-server’), this is my ID you have to replace with yours.
Step9:-Click Deploy and your online proxy server is now ready for use.
Step10:- This is my Proxy server, Live Proxy-Server .
If you have any problem in setting up, contact to me through comments and Emails.
