Iplanet Proxy server

My question is :
Does Iplanet proxy server 3.6 SP8 support the following http method :
PROPFIND, PROPPATCH,REPORT,MKACTIVITY,CHECKOUT,MKCOL,LOCK,UNLOCK,MERGE
I read that in the iplanet web server you can put this line in the magnus .conf:
Init fn="register-http-method" methods="PROPFIND,PROPPATCH,LOCK,UNLOCK........"
But in the Iplanet proxy server this line seem to be not support
The ``register-http-method`` is not support by the Iplanet proxy server
Do you have a solution to make these method fonctionning in the iplanet proxy server
Thanks in advance.

IPlanet Proxy Server 3.6/NT4 restart and heartbeat-Problems

Hi,
we get the following errors:
- Proxy Server: proxy-proxy Heartbeat connect failed: error - 10061
- Proxy Server: proxy-proxy Restarting proxy: reason - 0
- Proxy Server: proxy-proxy Restarting proxy: reason - 2
we were able to minimize the first error by tweaking the
heartbeat-timeout-values as described in the iPlanet-knowledgebase
although we didn't eliminate them completely.
The second error is seldom but the third error sometimes occures several
times within an hour. Does anyone around here know anything about this
error ? I didn't find anything in the knowledgebase.
Is anyone around who can help me out ?

Windows xp update returned transfer aborted on iplanet proxy server 3.6

Have set proxy to bypass for windows updates.
However, once updates determined, they then fail to install, with the error "Tranfer aborted"

Hi,
If you are running iPlanet Web/Proxy server 3.6 under WindowsXP "OS" is not supported.
(OR)
Let me know whether your sceniro was has below.
That, when you tries to do a search(hit) on one of web sites(weblink like www.anytest.com).
You get the following error message:
"Transfer Aborted
Transfer was aborted for unknown reason. Retrying the request may work."
If it so please let me know whether proxy server is running on UNIX or WinNT platform.

Does anyone have a perl script that can submit a proxy request to iplanet proxy server with basic authentication? We want to do content verification using BigIP.

Hi, Dave.
If you're using the BlackBerry browser, you can't configure anything to bypass the RIM servers. I believe you may do so by using the Opera browser, but I haven't tried it myself so cannot comment with authority.
I hope that clears up the issue for you.

Your proxy instance should start. The error you are seeing should only be for the admin server. Add the location of where your jvm.so is located to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH. The jvm.so is located under the JDK directory.

'-1' bytes in log file - iPlanet Web Proxy Server 3.6

I'm running iPlanet Web Proxy Server 3.6, and getting strange results in log file using extended format. Where the number of bytes should be (c1 - the content-length sent to the client by the proxy).
I regularly get a '-1' instead of the number of bytes. Anyone tell me where this is coming from and how to stop it?

Someone in the Web Proxy Server forum might. I guess you accidentally posted in the Web Server forum. However, if your question is time- or business-critical, you should probably contact Sun directly: http://www.sun.com/support

Connection timeout when using iPlanet web-server uses Weblogic 6.1 proxy server to proxy requests to an HTTP server

Hi all,
My configuration is as follows: I have an iPlanet web-server that uses a WebLogic

Upgrade question (iPlanet Web Proxy Server)

Hello List,
What is the procedure for upgrading iPlanet Web Proxy Server 3.6 (beta)
to iPlanet Web Proxy Server 3.6 on Solaris 2.8?
Thank you in advance.
- Andrew Petrov.

Hi
This as per the HTTP/1.1 RFC (RFC2616)
The Connection general-header field allows the sender to specify options that are desired for that particular connection and MUST NOT be communicated by proxies over further connections.
The Connection header has the following grammar:
Connection = "Connection" ":" 1#(connection-token)
connection-token = token
HTTP/1.1 proxies MUST parse the Connection header field before a message is forwarded and, for each connection-token in this field, remove any header field(s) from the message with the same name as the connection-token. Connection options are signaled by the presence of a connection-token in the Connection header field, not by any corresponding additional header field(s), since the additional header field may not be sent if there are no parameters associated with that connection option.

Migrate certificate 3.x to Oracle iPlanet Web Proxy Server 4.0.20

Hi
I try to migrate from Sun iPlanet Web Proxy Server(SPWPS) 3.6 to Oracle iPlanet Web Proxy Server(OPWPS) 4.0.20 and I have some problem.
I have an instance in SPWPS-3.6 with SSL certificate, when I migrate it to OPWPS-4.0.20 using the admin interface, the certificate
is not migrate with this error message :
Migrating Keys and Certificates...
[Error] The password entered for the key is not valid
Assimilation failed.
But I am sure to enter the right password.
After that I manage the new instance in administration interface, and in Security Panel, there is a choice to "Migrate 3.x certificate"
I try this, but I get this error message
Incorrect Usage
The password entered is not valide
Can somebody help me to resolve this problem ?
Thanks in advance.

Your proxy instance should start. The error you are seeing should only be for the admin server. Add the location of where your jvm.so is located to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH. The jvm.so is located under the JDK directory.

IPlanet Sun ONE Web Proxy Server 3.6 SP6 terminating

I have a problem with my proxy server server.
I use iPlanet Sun ONE Web Proxy Server 3.6 SP6
It is terminating and the service is restarting. This happens about 10-15 times a day. The message I get from the log is :
[22/Mar/2005:09:29:30] info: server terminating... each time it terminates.
I know for sure that this is no hardware issue (as I have changed the hard disk recently). My OS is win2000 server SP4 + all released patches from MS.
Also I have reinstalled the OS several times (clean install after format) and I got the same result.
Also I tried to use the proxy with/without LDAP server for authentication - the same.
Any suggestions/recommendations are mostly welcome.
Thanks in advance,
Kaloyan

Dear Kaloyan,
Migration to another proxy (e.g. ISA) seems to be quickest solution for your problem, as WebProxy doesn't work well on w2k platform.

Bug Report: JSSE 1.0.2 & iPlanet-Web-Proxy-Server/3.6

When tunneling through iPlanet-Web-Proxy-Server/3.6 we get a "Socket Closed" exception during the handshake (right after overlaying the tunnel). I got this problem with HP-UX. My browser works fine with that proxy so the problem isn't the proxy. And my code works fine with every other proxies. This proxy does return HTTP 1.0 so this well known issue isn't related.
Anyone from Sun can confirm this issue ?
Anyone else got this bug ?
Thanks in advance.
Fran�ois

Hi all,
When you say tunnelling, are you referring to code similiar to the code in JavaWorld Tip 111?
I am currently trying to debug some issues with that code myself. I get similiar errors when tunnelling through a proxy.
The download works correctly when a HttpsURLConnection is used to connect directly to the same site.
I am using a squid-cache as my test proxy, so I am not sure if the proxy is the problem. (assuming we are talking about the same issue)
I have noticed that a V3 site certificate seems to be more likely to fail though. I have not found a site using a V1 certificate where the tunnelling has failed.
We are also discussing what I think is the same issue in the thread "HTTPS tunneling and V3 certificates".
I have been trying to get this stuff working for a few months now.

IPlanet Web Proxy Server 3.6 and emptying out the cache.

Hello.
I'm wanting to empty out our proxy server's cache in an attempt to resolve one of our users help desk problems - a web site they are accessing is not loading correctly when going through the proxy server, bypassing the proxy server works.
The problem is that the technician who implemented our iPlanet Web Proxy Server 3.6 has left the company and no one else is aware of how to do this. Can anyone advise of what has to be done to achieve it? Thank you.
Kind regards,
Jimmey.

IPlanet Web Proxy Server 3.6 SP 5 Persistent Connection doesn't work

I use iPlanet-Web-Proxy-Server/3.6-SP5 on Soloaris. and trying to use persistenet connection functions in forward proxy through setting keep alive to "ON". But I found this functions doesn't work at all. The following trace is the HTTP Header info i got from receiver.
1. The HTTP Header info without using Proxy Server
Request headers :

I found Kepp-Alive information ( "connection: Keep-Alive" and " proxy-connection: Keep-Alive")
was taken out by proxy server.
Is a proxy server bug? Can I do something to make it work?

Weblogic 5.1 and iPlanet as proxy server

Hello!
We are using Weblogic 5.1 and Netscape's iPlanet as a proxy server. Both
the machines are running of seperate NT boxes with static IP addresses.
All the changes which need to made on iPlanet side (i.e. copying
proxy36.dll, modificatiopn of mime types file, changes to the obj.conf
file etc.) have been made. Howver I am still not able to get the JSP
forwarded to Weblogic to get them serviced.
I had this evironment set up pretty quickly when using Weblogic 4.5.1.
Any ideas? Anything I might have overlooked. I have pretty much follwed
all the instructions specified by Weblogic to set up Netscape as a proxy
server.
ANy help in resolving this problem would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Vijay R

I have the same setup but it's on one NT box and works OK. Make sure you have the proxy36.dll from Weblogic 5.1 Service Pack 6. Release notes say you MUST have SP6 proxy file to work with iPlanet 4.1

When I try to execute a JSP, I get the "Internal Server Error". On
analyzing the
error message sin the log files for iPlanet it reports that it is not
able to connect to
Weblogic.
In order to fix this porblem I just copies the proxy36.dll for Weblogic
version
4.5.1 and copied it in the required iPlanet directory. This seems to
have fixed
the problem of getting the JSP serviced by Weblogic, but I am wary about
the solution.
Am I doing something wrong or is there a new files availabel for
download. I checked
the website for BEA and did not find any answers.
