Stream: IG creation
Topic: IG Publisher Proxy Issue?
Chris Moesel (Oct 31 2018 at 13:34):
I've been using an igpublisher jar I downloaded on October 1 with no problem. Yesterday I switched to the latest build igpublisher jar and found that it now fails to connect to the tx.fhir.org:
Connect to Terminology Server at http://tx.fhir.org (08.0313sec) Oct 31, 2018 8:58:59 AM org.apache.http.impl.client.DefaultRequestDirector tryConnect INFO: I/O exception (java.net.SocketException) caught when connecting to the target host: Malformed reply from SOCKS server Oct 31, 2018 8:58:59 AM org.apache.http.impl.client.DefaultRequestDirector tryConnect INFO: Retrying connect
After some trial and error, I discovered that it works if I use it on a network that doesn't require a proxy -- but when I use it from my work network, which does require a proxy, it fails.
As I noted earlier, this was working with a proxy using the older jar (downloaded Oct 1). I switched back to the older jar and confirmed that one still works. The issue is only in the newer jars.
Have there been changes in the igpublisher jar since Oct 1 that might affect how it connects to the tx.fhir.org server?
This is how I am invoking it when on a proxied network:
java -Dhttp.proxyHost=my.proxy.host.org -Dhttp.proxyPort=80 -Dhttps.proxyHost=my.proxy.host.org -Dhttps.proxyPort=80 -DsocksProxyHost=my.proxy.host.org -DsocksProxyPort=80 -Xms4g -Xmx8g -jar org.hl7.fhir.igpublisher.jar -ig ig.json

I haven't made any knowing changes in this regard
Grahame Grieve (Nov 09 2018 at 06:40):
or maybe I did. From the publisher doco
Grahame Grieve (Nov 09 2018 at 06:40):
the publisher also supports the param -proxy=[address]:[port] for if you use a proxy (stupid java won't pick up the system settings)
Grahame Grieve (Nov 09 2018 at 06:40):
have you tried that?
Chris Moesel (Nov 13 2018 at 18:26):
Interesting... No, I haven't tried that. Since it was working via the Java system properties before, I hadn't thought to look in the documentation for changes. I should have. Sorry! I'll give it a try and report back.
Chris Moesel (Nov 16 2018 at 21:37):
Hmmm... that doesn't seem to be working either. I'm using it like this:
java -Xms4g -Xmx8g -jar org.hl7.fhir.igpublisher.jar -proxy http://my.proxy.org:80 -ig my-ig.json
I also tried it with the = (as in the doco text):
java -Xms4g -Xmx8g -jar org.hl7.fhir.igpublisher.jar -proxy=http://my.proxy.org:80 -ig my-ig.json
But either way it still gets stuck at:
Connect to Terminology Server at http://tx.fhir.org (09.0839sec)
Should I be sending the parameter in some other way?
