thanks much for reaching back Richie,

 

actually the suggestion was already in the config. maybe previously it was not being set correctly in the vmoptions file, but in my release it was there:

 

-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
-DsocksProxyHost=127.0.0.1
-DsocksProxyPort=1080

 

the thing is that it just sets http proxy, whereas i am looking for socks5.

 

thanks again,

art

    thanks NMRAO,

    following is the config from my vmoptions file and it does not work:

     

    -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
    -DsocksProxyHost=127.0.0.1
    -DsocksProxyPort=1080

     

    my question is generic. i'd like to know if SOAPUI(the code itself) supports socks proxy or not? it might be supporting only http proxy...

     

    i'd appreciate if someone can confirm that.

    thanks 🙂
