Re: Can't change proxy host address

Hi Sam,

Do you have XP SP2 installed?  Perhaps the other user has configured a 
firewall rule in SP2 to allow the outgoing connection?

Can you start WDSc with a new workspace, set the proxy information exactly 
as the other user has and then try.  If this fails please send me the .log 
file.  If it works, then you can shutdown, rename the %workspace 
root%\.metadata\.config directory and restart with your old workspace.  It 
should now have the new updates.

I know this isn't an ideal solution, but knowing what happens with this 
will help us debug the problem more (i.e. it narrows down the problem to 
the workbench vs operating system.)

Thanks.

Re: [WDSCI-L] Can't change proxy host address






   Still haven't resolved this.  No firewalls in place, stopping Macafee
   virus checker makes no difference.

 

   The one guy who can make it work has both WDSc and Ecclipse 3.0 on his 
PC
   and updating works for both products.  Other than that we haven't
   determined anything different.
