Hi, I looking for to access *HTTPS* url via proxy server and proxy server has the basic authentication. I trying this and getting an error message as "HTTP/1.1 407 Proxy Authentication Required". Could you please help me on this? and provide any pointer to some example?
I have gone through the below sample but this is for accessing *HTTP *url. http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-4.5.x/examples.html In the mail thread it is also mentioned "It is missing because HttpClient has not been correctly configured to respond the the authentication challenge." so please let me know what configuration is missing? Thanks, Kaushal.
