Orbeon through a proxy

Hi,
    I'm running Orbeon on Tomcat 6 and my connection goes through a proxy server. I have a problem when I try to access an internet webservice, where the connection is refused. If I do not go through the proxy server it all works fine.

I'm not sure if this is tomcat or orbeon related, but wondered if anyone had any tips or success stories

Thanks

Ryan

Ryan,

Same issue: I had the proxy canceled on our proxy server and
connection was established as usual.

It is neither orbeon nor tomcat.

This was just a few lines of code, so I went ahead and added the
support you need to configure a proxy:

<property as="xs:string"  name="oxf.http.proxy.host" value="localhost"/>
<property as="xs:integer" name="oxf.http.proxy.port" value="8090"/>

This is in properties-base.xml (properties.xml has been split in 4
files recently). And you'll need the next nightly build for this. Hope
this solves your issue. As a side effect, it will make it easier to
see what goes over HTTP by running Apache TCPMon in proxy mode and
setting this configuration to point to TCPMon, instead of having to
change URIs in the code to point to TCPMon.

Alex,
        My proxy requires authentication, what code did you change? I'll have a look at modifying it to authenticate the proxy

Thanks

Ryan

Alex,
        I found the code for the proxy and modified it to provide authentication, I've attached the latest in the zip file

The has 4 additional properties in properties_base.xml

    <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.http.proxy.username"                          value="user"/>
    <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.http.proxy.password"                          value="password"/>
    <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.http.proxy.ntlm.host"                         value="proxyserver"/>
    <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.http.proxy.ntlm.domain"                       value="london.domain.com"/>

The username and password fields are required for Basic and Digest authentication methods, my proxy server has NTLM, so I've also implemented this code. Basically if you provide the host and domain properties it will set the credentials to be NTLM rather than Basic/Digest.

Let me know when this code is checked in so I can take the latest nightly.

Thanks

Ryan
