Fails to record when in http proxy mode

[alexkreidler]

Describe the bug

Pywb can't serve a request in HTTP proxy mode and record the WARC file. Hopefully I'm missing something simple!

Steps to reproduce the bug

I'm trying to setup the HTTP proxy to record Warc files. When I set my config.yaml to this:

proxy:
  coll: test2
  recording: true

I get no error on pywb startup, but an HTTP 400 error <p>Collection not found: <b>test2</b></p> when I make the request via ALL_PROXY=http://localhost:8080 curl example.com.

So then I run wb-manager init proxied, change the coll to proxied, and then when I run the same request, I get an http page that says Pywb Error and this error:

{'args': {'coll': 'proxied', 'type': 'record', 'metadata': {}, 'cache': 'default'}, 'error': '{"error": "HTTPError(\'404 Client Error: No Resource Found for url: http://localhost:40369/live/resource/postreq?param.recorder.coll=proxied&url=http%3A%2F%2Fexample.com%2F&closest=now&matchType=exact\')"}'}

and the logs are:

$ pywb

$ lsof -iTCP
pywb      1700596            root    6u  IPv4 455674019      0t0  TCP localhost:40369 (LISTEN)

Expected behavior

The system should return the correct HTML response, record the WARC file, and I should see it on disk

[malicious]

I had a similar error; I needed to add the $live collection to config.yaml.
(It's mentioned in the error message that it's trying to hit http://localhost:40369/live/)
