As a matter of fact, proxy does work if it doesn't require authentication. Once you set up the proxy to require authentication, it fails. I am using Java Web Start. Apparently the problem is that Axis is not using Sun's networking library in the proper was as to get the default configuration. There seems to be no way of getting the proxy authentication info from the runtime (to configure Axis manually) because of security reasons.
So, I am forced to abandon Axis and try with Sun's JAX-RPC reference implementation. -----Original Message----- From: Mato Mira, Fernando (DIA CHE) Sent: Thursday, January 26, 2006 12:12 PM To: [email protected] Subject: No way to use webservice through proxy server Hello, 1. First, the connection was to a service via HTTPS, the proxy apparently does all the crypto and the client raises an exception because it can't understand a plain text response. 2. To avoid this, I tried connecting via HTTP. Now it seems the proxy removes the basic authentication header sent by the client, as it gets an error "Authentication required" from the server. I imagine there's nothing Axis can do about 2, but what about fixing 1? 1 is the right way to connect anyway. I am using 1.2 Final Thanks
