Kyle, I had been using similar settings for Jetty and it was working without any trouble through the proxy. We do have a tomcat instance that is running our continuous integration environment that is having proxy trouble and I am assuming this is probably the fix. I just haven't gotten to that yet. The opensocial container portion of my project is still in early development.
When I run in my dev env, I am using maven and jetty so my command line looks like this: mvn jetty:run -Dhttp.proxyHost=stuff -Dhttp.proxyPort=portnum That was working fine for a while until I downloaded the latest source code trunk. Large enterprises and their proxy servers :). This is so much easier at home.

When running inside of Tomcat, have had some success setting these properties inside of catalina.properties: http.proxyHost=... http.proxyPort=... http.nonProxyHosts=localhost, 127.0.0.1 However, I still run into problems that I suspect are proxy related. Have you tried setting these before? Any luck? - Kyle On Thu, Apr 16, 2009 at 5:14 AM, Terlecki, Stephen < [email protected]> wrote: > I was using that approach as well before the latest source code that I > pulled down.
