Summary

When setting the JVM settings to support proxy, Pega sends requests to a proxy despite configuring the host in the nonProxyHosts system property.

Error Messages

Steps to Reproduce

• Dhttp.proxySet=true
• Dhttp.proxyServer=[ipaddress]
• Dhttp.proxyPort=[portnumber]
• Dhttps.proxySet=true
• Dhttps.proxyServer=[ipaddress]
• Dhttps.proxyPort=[portnumber]
• Dhttp.nonProxyHosts="[string of host names and ip addresses delimited by pipe]"

The traffic is redirected to a proxy server after the settings and system restart. However, all requests go to the proxy server.

Root Cause

A third-party product issue: Limitation with IBM Websphere.

Resolution

Here's the explanation of the reported behavior:

The use of host names in http.nonProxyHosts or https.nonProxyHosts would not work because the target IP (IBM Websphere) address was used to determine non-proxy hosts.
