Configuring AR System server for a proxy server

If you will be using web services with a proxy server, perform the procedures in this topic. If you want to consume web services over SSL or with client certificates, see Configuring-to-consume-over-SSL-or-with-client-certificates.

To configure Developer Studio for use with a proxy server

1. Verify that Developer Studio is not running.
2. Open the devstudio.ini file located in the ARSystemInstallDir\DevStudio directory in a text editor.
3. Add the following lines to the file:
   • For HTTP protocols:
     -Dhttp.proxySet=true
     -Dhttp.proxyHost=<hostName>
     -Dhttp.proxyPort=<portNumber>
   • For other protocols:
     -DproxySet=true
     -DproxyHost=<hostName>
     -DproxyPort=<portNumber>
4. Save and close the devstudio.ini file.

To configure the AR System server to consume an external web service for use with a proxy server

1. Stop the AR System server.
2. Open the arserver.config (arserverd.config) file in a text editor. The default locations are:
   • UNIX—ARSystemServerInstallDir/bin
   • Windows—ARSystemServerInstallDir
3. Add the following proxy information next to the last jvm option:
   • For HTTP protocols:
     jvm.option.<next_no1>=-Dhttp.proxySet=true
     jvm.option.<next_no2>=-Dhttp.proxyHost=<hostName>
     jvm.option.<next_no3>=-Dhttp.proxyPort=<portNumber>
     jvm.option.<next_no4>=-Dhttp.proxyUser=<userName>
     jvm.option.<next_no5>=-Dhttp.proxyPassword=<password>
     jvm.option.<next_no6>=-Dhttp.nonProxyHosts="<hostName>|<hostName>|..."
     
     

   • For other protocols:

     jvm.option.<next_no1>=-DproxySet=true

     jvm.option.<next_no2>=-DproxyHost=<hostName>

     jvm.option.<next_no3>=-DproxyPort=<portNumber>

     For example:

     If your arserver.config (arserverd.config) has jvm.option.19 as last the jvm option, you have to add the following for HTTP protocol:

     jvm.option.20=-Dhttp.proxySet=true
     jvm.option.21=-Dhttp.proxyHost=<hostName>
     jvm.option.22=-Dhttp.proxyPort=<portNumber>
     jvm.option.23=-Dhttp.proxyUser=<userName>
     jvm.option.24=-Dhttp.proxyPassword=<password>
     jvm.option.25=-Dhttp.nonProxyHosts="<hostName>|<hostName>|..."
4. Save and close the arserver.config (arserverd.config) file.
5. Restart the AR System server.
