Sending Usage Report when the Computer is Connected to Internet through Proxy

This topic describes the procedure to send usage report when the computer is connected to Internet through proxy.

If the computer is connected to Internet through proxy, then the usage report cannot be sent to Process Platform License Service. The Platform Properties file can be modified to allow the usage report to be sent through the proxy.

  1. Click Start > Programs > Process Platform <version> > <Instance Name> > Tools > Management Console. Management Console is launched.
  2. Click on the Platform Properties button on the left.
  3. Set the following properties in Platform Properties file
    • bus.http.ProxySet = true
    • bus.http.proxyHost = <proxyhostname> (here proxyhostname must be an IP address)
    • bus.http.proxyPort = <proxyhostport>
    • bus.http.proxyUser = <proxyusername>
    • bus.http.proxyPassword = <proxyPassword>(in plain text)
    • bus.http.proxyAuthorization = <authorizationType>
      For example, the following values can be set:
    • bus.http.ProxySet = true
    • bus.http.proxyHost = 10.192.60.47
    • bus.http.proxyPort = 8080
    • bus.http.proxyUser = proxyAdmin
    • bus.http.proxyPassword = adminPassword
    • bus.http.proxyAuthorization = Basic

      Note
      In case HTTPS is to be enabled, set the following property in the Platform Properties file:

      bus.gateway.protocol = https
  4. Restart the OpenText Process Suite Platform (<instance name>) and IIS for changes to take effect.
