JWS not Inheriting PROXY settings from Netscape

Hi!
We are using JWS 1.0.1_01 to launch our application, which needs the proxy settings of the user to connect via SSL to our servers.
We do not have any problems when the user does not use proxies to access the Internet or uses Internet Explorer as their default browser.
For users with Netscape 4.* as their default browsers, many users are not able to launch our application, as it can not find the proxy settings.
They can not download the sample applications of Java Web Start either.
They work fine if they make Internet Explore as their default browser or set the proxy manually in Java Web Start.
As our customers use some sort of scripts for proxy configurations we do not want to set the proxy manually in Java Web Start.
We want to use the proxy settings of the browser.
So I want to know if there is a known issue with Java Web Start not detecting the proxies automatically from Netscape.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks

Basically web start can only pick up the settings of whatever
happens to be the current Windows default browser. If that's Netscape then the Netscape settings will be used.
Since your clients are using a script to specify the proxy settings you should also be aware that there's an issue with web start 1.0_01 where it locates the proxy setting based on the first occurrence of the word "Proxy" in that script. This can cause issues if the first proxy
listed is for https only of even if the first occurrence of "proxy" is
inside a comment.

  • ProxySelector does not pull proxy settings from configuration file?

    Hi everyone,
    I try to use class ProxySelector to find proxy settings on Windows XP. When a proxy server URL and port is set explicitly in the "Internet Options" control panel, this proxy setting is detected by class ProxySelector - no problem.
    When a proxy configuration file is set in the control panel, class ProxySelector returns no proxy setting (i.e. DIRECT) - PROBLEM
    (yes, the configuration file works otherwise, i.e. the proxy is pulled when using Firefox or Internet Explorer
    and yes, the proxy works too, i.e. when using the proxy url and port directly, HTTP can be used in Java too).
    Does anyone have a hint on how to find out the proxy server url and port to use for HTTP out of Java, when the proxy is set through a configuration file as described above?
    Thanks a lot for any help
    Ulrich

    Hi again,
    I found a solution in the mean time: ProxySelector does return the local "browser settings" for a proxy server (i.e. proxy type and address) when an application is started with Java Web Start. When started with Java Web Start, a correct proxy type and address is also returned, when a ".pac" file is set in the browser settings.
    So, when an application needs to determine a proxy configuration, although it might be started locally one needs to create a JNLP file and launch respective application (locally) using Java Web Start.

  • Windows 8 and IE10 and 11 not accepting Proxy Settings via Group Policy from windows server 2003

    Hi
    We are still running Windows Server 2003 with a Win7 and Win8 desktop environment. I can control Win7 IE9 settings,
    But Win8 systems are running IE10. We have an internal proxy server.
    Is there any way to force the proxy settings to the Win8/IE10 or 11 systems .

    Thanks

    Hi,   
    I agree with Zanderol24, we can install RSAT on a windows8 client, and then we can use Group Policy Management to manage group policy from the client.
    For more information about RSAT, we can refer to the following link:
    Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT) for Windows Client and Windows Server (dsforum2wiki)
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/2202.remote-server-administration-tools-rsat-for-windows-client-and-windows-server-dsforum2wiki.aspx
    For more detailed information about how to use GPP to configure the proxy setting for ie10 and ie11, we can refer to the following link:
    How to configure Group Policy Preference settings for Internet Explorer 11 in Windows 8.1 or Windows Server 2012 R2
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2898604
    When we use GPPs you need to be aware of the F5-F8 keys:
    Red / Green: GP Preferences doesn’t work even though the policy applied and after gpupdate \force

    Besides, aside from using group policy to manage IE, IEAK can also be used to do this.
    For IEAK, the following article can be referred to for more information.

  • Windows 8 and IE10 not accepting Proxy Settings via Group Policy

    We have recently introduced a couple of Windows 8 computers in our network, and we are having issues applying the Internet Explorer Proxy Server settings.
    We use a Microsoft TMG 2010 server as our proxy server for accessing the internet.
     We have been using a GPO with the following settings to automatically configure our Windows 7 computers running IE9 with the appropriate Proxy settings:
    User Configuration\Policies\Windows Settings\Internet Explorer Maintenance\Connection/Proxy Settings
    “Enable Proxy Settings” : Checked
    “Address of proxy” : server.domain.local
    “Port” : 8080
    “Use the same proxy server for all addresses” : Checked
    “Exceptions” : Here we have a list of several internal or partner sites that should not be proxied.
    This GPO has worked beautifully for our Windows XP and Windows 7 users with IE 7, 8 and 9.
     Now with Windows 8 and IE10, this no longer works. 
    I’ve therefore added a Windows Server 2012 Domain Controller to the network, and using GPMC on that new DC, I created a new GPO with the following settings:
    User Configuration\Preferences\Control Panel Settings\Internet Settings\Internet Explorer 10
    Now, seeing as these are preferences, it’s a little different.  But, I’ve “checked off” the option “Use a proxy server for your LAN” as well as “Bypass proxy server for local addresses”. 
    Then I click on “Advanced” and setup all my proxy settings the way I would like them, including the proxy server name, port and exceptions list.
    When this new group policy gets applied to my Windows 8 PC, the only setting that gets applied is the “Use a proxy server for your LAN”. 
    It does not configure the name or port of the proxy server nor does it configure the exceptions list. 
    If I go back to the GPMC, and edit the new GPO, the settings are all there. 
    However, if I just view the settings from the main GPMC screen (without opening the GPO itself), 
    I don’t see all of those settings (again, only the one “Use a proxy server…”)
    What am I missing???

    Hi All, - (Revised Answer by myself)<o:p></o:p>
    I banged my head against the keyboard on this one for some time trying to get this group policy to apply.  I
    did every thing that was suggested, learning about the F6 and F7 keys to Green underline and Red underline the options required and not required.  I even gave in and used the registry settings and it still did not work.  It turned out that I had
    2 issues.  The first one is obvious and the second not so obvious, this is how it is setup:
    I have a 2012 R2 Standard DC with Windows 8.1 clients/workstations and IE 11.  As you are aware you must make
    sure that the following are underlined in green:
    Automatically detect settings - (but not ticked)<o:p></o:p>
    Use proxy server for your LAN<o:p></o:p>
    Bypass Proxy for local address<o:p></o:p>
    Next I made sure that the following had red dotted lines:
    Address<o:p></o:p>
    This still didn't work, so I went through my 'Do Not use proxy servers for addresses beginning with' removed all
    of these and then re-added one by one until the problem materialized.  The first issue was when using wildcards I had added an entry with the following:
    http://domain.subdomain.com/*
    Then caused my proxy fields not to be applied, I re-added this just with:<o:p></o:p>
    http://domain.subdomain.com/
    <o:p>This next one is IMPORTANT.</o:p>
    I had these entries in a Word document of which I had copied and pasted from the entry box for 'Do
    Not use proxy servers for addresses beginning with'.  As shown in the screen shot above provided by SVEN_BURGER I had very similar entries:
    http://domain.subdomain.com/;10.*.*.*;172.27.*.*;http://172.27.*.*
    Each time I copied and pasted the line (+ more) above the proxy field on the Windows 8.1 client
    be blank after using 'gpupdate /force' I then noticed that in my Word document the whole string was being seen as 1 URL due to the http part at the beginning, so I changed my entry to look like this:
    10.*.*.*;172.27.*.*;http://172.27.*.*;http://domain.subdomain.com/
    I again noticed that this section:
    http://172.27.*.*;http://domain.subdomain.com/
    Was being seen as one URL in my Word document.  To resolve this I had to add the URL's individually and
    apply and OK these before going back in and making the next entry.  So I ended up adding them all individually after separating the
    URL's in my Word document.
    I hope this helps.

  • WebApp not inheriting Safari Settings

    I have a simple web app that launches Safari (full screen mode) calling a website (let's call it website A) containing another website (website B) in an iframe. Website B uses cookies. When i launch the app, and the window opens, website B fails because the cookies aren't being set. Looks like Website B is considered a third party website because its contained within an iframe.
    If i call website A outside the web app, both websites work fine.
    I found that enabling the Safari cookies option to always allow third party cookies determines whether website B works in Safari, but it has no bearing on it when i call it from the web app.
    Why doesn't the web app inherit the safari settings? Is there any workaround or setting that i've missed?

  • Photoshop CC 2014 not taking over settings from Photoshp CC?

    I noticed Photoshop CC 2014 being installed beside Photoshop CC, which I have configured to my liking. Mainly Keyboard shortcuts, units and rulers, that sort of thing.
    Now if I open the new Photoshop CC 2014, these settings seem all reset to default again. I can Edit -> [email protected] -> Download settings, but it doesn't change anything. The settings are still default. The only thing that seems to be working is my workspace that has been added.
    How can I fully migrate all settings from Photoshop CC to the new Photoshop CC 2014? I was expecting this to happen automatically, but apparently not.
    Same goes for Illustrator by the way.

    I was getting the same thing.
    LR would open .tifs in PS but not raw files..
    Also got the same result if opening as smart object and then trying to save back to LR.
    It was working fine until i un installed the older version of PS CC. Then it stopped working.
    What worked for me was to un install PS (2014) and re install it.

  • InfoView not defaulting print settings from Crystal Reports XI

    I have a form/report created from Crystal Reports XI published to InfoView that has the print settings set for the manual tray when printed. When running the report in InfoView, it does not default to the manual tray when printing. I am publishing directly from Crystal Reports. I have the Process/Print Setup 'Set layout to: Report file default' and the Schedule/Format 'Use options saved with report' checkbox checked. I am not finding any other settings to tell InfoView to use the report page layout/printer settings. Anyone know of any other options I should check? Thanks!

  • Essbase 11.1.2.1 Users not inheriting filter access from group

    Hello all! We installed Essbase 11.1.2.1 in a distributed environment integrated with Shared Services and ran into an issue when provisioning users via groups. Using Shared Services we created a Native Directory Group and User. We provisioned the group with the Server Access Role and Filter Application role, then assigned the filter to the group using 'assign access control' on the application in Shared Services. For some reason using the Essbase add-in we are unable to retrieve data from the database. We receive an error stating the user id does not have read access to the db. If we carry out the same provisioning steps above on the user directly, we are able to retrieve data from the database. Any ideas on what might be causing this?

    In V11.1.2.2 ESSBASE is managed by OPMN. OPMN needs to be started before starting ESSBASE. You need to use "start.sh". Please do the following
    1) Run "stop.sh" that is in the starter scripts folder - This will stop all Oracle EPM components that are installed on the box
    2) Run "start.sh" - this will start OPMN, ESSBASE and all other installed components
    The "startEssbase.sh" and "stopEssbase.sh" can be used to start or stop ESSBASE only when OPMN is already running.

  • IE 10 not using proxy settings

    Odd one this. Our proxy server address is distributed to client workstations through GPP. Just lately, and I can't think of a reason why, users have been complaining that they are presented with the authentication page for our proxy server, which is usually
    presented when no proxy details have been set within IE. So, I check the proxy details, and they are present! If I untick the checkbox for 'use automatic configuration script', recheck it, OK, close the window, and refresh the page, all is good again. It's
    like IE is forgetting that the details are there - any ideas? 

    we see this happening in our environment, when users save their credentials (IE offers to save userid/password for a URL/domain), and, the user then undergoes an AD password change/expiry.
    They visit the URL again, after changing their AD password, but the browser/Windows will recognise the URL, supply the saved (stale) credentials, which are not accepted, so a basic auth challenge dialog is raised.
    Maybe you are seeing something similar, although if it goes away when you re-assert the auto-config setting, your issue may be different.

  • Proxy settings moved from User to Machine not removing user settings.

    Hi All,
    I have recently moved our company's proxy settings from User based to Machine based as we were having issues after moving from an internal proxy to a hosted external proxy.  What we found was after turning off the internal some users were no longer
    getting external internet. 
    After some investigation we found they were still getting old proxy settings on login and after a GPupdate.exe or normal gpupdate from the server the correct settings would apply. (happened to users logging on for the 1st time) To prevent this from happening
    I moved the proxy settings to the Computer GPO and it all appeared to work in the test GPO and in live.  But a few days later we got some calls logged to our help desk stating they don't get external internet.  After some more
    investigation we found that they are still getting the user policy applied to them even though it has all been removed from the User GPO. 
    I found if I remove the proxy settings it doesn't always apply to users but if I add info in it always updates to the user.  What can be causing this?  Some of these users have local admin rights and I thought at first it might be something they
    did but now we are getting non admin users with these issues.
    We are using IE 10 and have set the original Proxy settings using the GUI internet control panel and are now applying the proxy settings via Registry updates in the Computer GPO and enabled "Make Proxy settings per-machine" object.  Our SOE
    is Win 7 ent x64 with IE 10 (1500 units) and Win 8.1 ent x64 IE11 (100 units) And some XP SP3 that are in the process of migrating to Win7.
    Any help on this would be much appreciated.
    Cheers,
    Nat

    Hi Nat,
    you wrote: I found if I remove the proxy settings it doesn't always apply to users but if I add info in it always updates to the user. 
    Does that also happen für new users now after you changed your settings to the computer settings?
    I guess you used group policy preferences; that worked as "one time settings", so as long as the policy exists it will be merged with the Settings on the users computer. Please find a detailed description on
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn581922.aspx
    So you now have 2 configuration items: your policy as well as the users registry. So to remove that you already moved the Settings from the user configuration to your Computers configuration (that worked as you described) while the Settings
    in their HKCU are still there - you Need to either implement another  policy to remove that, or you can set it empty.
    Don't set it to "not configured" as that will keep your old setting deployed before.
    Sometimes I found in more easy to implement another user preference that removed the Registry key with the Registry keys to remove a Setting instead of Publishing a "remove Setting" configuration.
    Regards,
    Martin
