remote ejb lookup over http using a proxy server

[crazycradd]

I have recently found a couple of issues that have been fixed these are

Problem with http invocation of ejb and wildfly 11 rmi over http  now I have the fixes in place I have tried to invoke the ejb's from behind a proxy server these requests are failing.

I have set up the proxy server on ced12212 on port 3128 and this server can see the server hosting the ejbs on ghvh01.coa.local:4500

If I invoke my client program from the proxy server all works as expected, now if I invoke the client program from another client machine that does not know how to connect to the server it fails as below.

I have passed the proxy params as follows -Dhttp.proxyHost=ced12212 -Dhttp.proxyPort=3128

I get a permission issue if the client knows the server host but I turn on the firewall.

jaikiran do I need to set different properties to get the xnio to use the proxy

[jaikiran]

I haven't checked the code to see how that's dealt with. Maybe swd847 or dmlloyd might be able to tell.

[swd847]

Forward proxies are not currently supported, only reverse proxies (i.e. load balancers).

Thanks for the reply I have tailed the proxy logs and enabled the firewall on my local machine as you say no traffic is passed via the proxy and I have put the exception below in case its of any interest. If you let me know when this is implemented ill retest
