When I stop the smart-proxy and then http://localhost:3000/smart_proxies/5/puppetca I get this message
Connection refused - connect(2)
Hardly elegant but certainly correct.
Could you see try this operation again?

the main issue here (at least for the first error) is that the proxy library code checks the return code and the return length,
if its smaller then 2 it returns a true object.
any idea why we do that?

the smallest valid reply is "{}", which is two characters. JSON.parse chokes on anything less than two characters.
I guess it is trying to say:-
I got a valid rely cos the code says ok
return the value that we got or say that we succeeded in doing whatever we were asked.
A delete operation returns nothing.

yeah, but in this case, it returns simply true, which is wrong... can we look into it again?

This is no longer valid in 1.12-develop - the UI will correctly say that it can't contact the proxy.
Closing this, re-open if necessary :)
