Clarity

First of all I apologise if this is more of a programming query rather than specific to Clarity XOG but....  The problem I have is that the XOG client does not work from our work network to our SaaS Clarity, I believe due to our Proxy Server.   It works fine when I run it from home (but am trying to minimise working from home).    I have tried adding - Dhttp . proxyHost =999 .999.999.999 - Dhttp . proxyPort =9999 to the java command witin the xog.bat file, but no luck as the proxy requires username password authentication.    I have also created a VB.Net project using the example from the Xog Integration Manual, agian this works from home but not at work for the same reason (I thought VS may be a bit smarter or simpler  here), ie. it dies when trying to login to the service.    Has anyone had any experience with this situation?   I know one answer is to have a GUN coder fix this by building all the authentication etc into the code (I assume) but for quick and simple Xog jobs I am needing to do these from home after hours and I would love to be able to use the CA provided Xog client from work.    Help?     

Not 5 minutes after I post do I find the answer.....  I needed to add the following to the Java command line within xog.bat  -Dhttps.proxyHost=999.999.999.999 -Dhttps.proxyPort=9999 -Dhttps.proxyUser="username" -Dhttps.proxyPassword="password"  So my new command line in total looks like this  java -Dhttps.proxyHost=999.999.999.999 -Dhttps.proxyPort=9999 -Dhttps.proxyUser="username" -Dhttps.proxyPassword="password" -cp "%CLASSPATH%" %PROGRAM_ARGS% %XOG_ARGS%  I was not using http s and I found on the IBM website the reference to the proxyUser and ProxyPassword options.  Fixed!!

BTW, here is the answer to making this work with the VB.net example out of the XOG integration manual.  I changed the start of the ReadIdeas Function (as an exmple) to look like this with the new code in BOLD :   Dim ideaService As Ideas.IdeasService ideaService = New Ideas.IdeasService()  ideaService.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials    ideaService.Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential( "username" , "password" , "domain" )  Dim corpProxy As System.Net.WebProxy = New System.Net.WebProxy(" http://address:port ", True )  corpProxy.UseDefaultCredentials = True   ideaService.Proxy = corpProxy  Dim login As Ideas.Login login = New Ideas.Login()   blah blah code continues here

Thanks for letting everyone know you were able to resolve! :grin:

Hi bj!
it looke really feasible your approach btw I am experiencing the following issue:
"Proxy returns HTTP/1.1 407 Proxy Authentication Required"
The only difference is that I am using an url instead of ip address...

java -Dhttps.proxyHost=proxy.mywebsite.eu -Dhttps.proxyPort=3000 -Dhttps.proxyUser="myname" -Dhttps.proxyPassword="mypws" -cp "%CLASSPATH%"  ....

any suggestions?
