Configuring the application server to use HTTP proxy server

[Former Community Member]

Hi,

I am trying to configure LiveCycle ES2 to access services over the internet and since my Livecycle server connects to internet through a Proxy server, I have referred to section 5.8.2 of LiveCycle install_weblogic.pdf that states the following:

If the computer that LiveCycle ES2 is running on uses proxy settings to access external web sites, the

application server should be started with the following values set as Java virtual machine (JVM)

arguments:

-Dhttp.proxyHost= [server host]

-Dhttp.proxyPort=

[server port]

However, I am getting the below exception while running the LC application as my Proxy server requires User credentials to connect to the internet:

weblogic.net.http.HttpUnauthorizedException: Proxy or Server Authentication Required.

I tried providing the below JVM startup argument too, but no luck:

-Dhttp.proxyUser= [proxy user]

-DhttpPassword= [Proxy password]

Can you please suggest how to configure User credentials for the Proxy server in Livecycle.

Thanks in advance.

Make sure we configure both Workbench and Server as mentioned here : http://help.adobe.com/en_US/livecycle/9.0/workbenchHelp/help.htm?content=001288.html

Hi WASIL,

Thank you for your response.

I have followed the above document suggested by yourself and the relevant steps while setting up the Server and the Workbench, and verified the settings too.

The installation guide does highlight the steps to configure a Proxy server. However, the guide does not mention anything about how to handle Proxy server authentication.

Please note that there are Proxy authenication options available in Workbench to configure how the Workbench connects to the LiveCycle server, whereas the problem I am facing here is how to connect the LiveCycle server with internet services through a Proxy server.

I hope that clears the problem statement.

Thankyou for your assistance.

Please get in touch with Adobe Enterprise Support  as I'm not sure whether this scenerio has been tested with workbench or if exists then documented.

Thanks,

Hi WASIL,

Sorry but I am a newbie to the Adobe forum, So whom do I exactly contact when you say Adobe Enterprise Support?

Thank you.

TheDeveloper,

Since this scenerio is not tested( as far as I know), it might require some code fix ( in the form of patch) or pointer to correct document if exists.All this would be provided by Adobe through Adobe Enterprise Support(if you have Support Contract).

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Wasil
