Need Help: Java Client Automatic Proxy

Servoy 5.1.x

One of our customers asked the following question:

Is there a way to get around using Direct Connection in the Java Client Network Settings with the Servoy Smart Client. We would like to be able to use our automatic proxy configuration script if possible. A question came up about this affecting other Java Applets that some people may be using.

The way the Servoy server is set up now, they get the message below if they try to use anything other than Direct Connection:

Cannot find dataservice, it may not be running on the server

I have no idea how to respond to the customer and need guidance. I have no experience setting up an automatic proxy.

Thanks!

if that proxy script is also used for your your browser, set the setting to browser, and use an option in the tunnel of Servoy: set it to http & socket

The tunnel is much more proxy friendly…

Harjo…your recommendation worked. Thanks for the help!
