Hi,
For some reason I cannot use Axis to access a web service through my university’s authenticating proxy. No matter what I do (set system properties, install an Authenticator, etc) it won’t add the username/password I supply to the HTTP header of the request. As a result I get back a 407 Proxy Authentication Required error.
I am using Axis 1.1, and have also tried using Axis 1.2 RC1. I notice this problem does not occur on Axis 1.0, in which the following code will do the job:
System.setProperty("http.proxyHost", "proxy_address"); System.setProperty("http.proxyPort", "proxy_port"); System.setProperty("http.proxyUser", "proxy_username"); System.setProperty("http.proxyPassword", "proxy_password");
I would be very grateful if you could point me in the right direction!
Kind regards,
