MDS-simulator and proxy

Is there a way to configure MDS-simulator to use a proxy to connect to the Internet? What about a proxy that requires authentication?

Thanks.

How To - Configure the MDS simulator to work behind a proxy

This should take care of your needs. Just enter the proxy address and port per the instructions. If you leave the username and password blank then you will get prompted on the BlackBerry.

Thanks a lot.

There is also one more setting which enables the proxy use to begin with that is not mentioned in the "how to". That is application.handler.http.proxyEnabled=true

Thanks again.

Hi There,

I have verified that all that's mentioned above is in place in the rimpublic.property file for the MDS sim, but I still cannot get the BB sim to go to any web pages. Is there somehting else I should be doing or checking?

Thanks for any help.

This allowed me to use proxy for http connections. But I'm still not able to use https connections. I found "[HTTPS=HANDLER]" section in "rimpublic.property" and tried to add following lines to this section

Code:

application.handler.http.proxyEnabled=true

application.handler.http.proxyHost=proxy

application.handler.http.proxyPort=3128

But it did not help me.
Also I tried to add

Code:

application.handler.https.proxyEnabled=true

application.handler.https.proxyHost=proxy

application.handler.https.proxyPort=3128

both in "[HTTPS=HANDLER]" and "[HTTP=HANDLER]" sections and still no luck :-(
Does anybody know how to configure MDS simulator to use proxy for https connections?
Thanks in advance.

Not sure if they changed the instructions but here are the settings I use in the [HTTP HANDLER] section. I dont do anything special for https.

application.handler.http.proxyEnabled = true
application.handler.http.proxyAutoConfig = true
application.handler.http.proxyAutoConfigURL= http://xxxx.xxxx.xxxxx/proxy.pac

Hi,

application.handler.http.proxyHost = xxx.xxx.x.xxx
application.handler.http.proxyPort = xxx
application.handler.http.proxyEnabled = true

This is the settings used to enable MDS work behind proxy. Check the proxy ip address and port.
