Add OpenSocial Gadget

If you're able to open the gadget XML in your browser, then it sounds like a firewall issue, i.e. the firewall is blocking the request from your server to the gadget. You can confirm this by doing a wget on the server and see if it goes through.

Good idea on testing using wget from the command line. I'm now certain that my proxy is the issue. Still, I cannot seem to find a way to set the proxy values in RTC.

I did find some instructions on setting up "org.eclipse.core.net.prefs" here...

http://www.mainsoft.com/jazz-doc/proxysettings

...but that didn't seem to do the trick. Any thoughts on configuring the server to work with a proxy?

I may be wrong, but I don't think RTC supports this type of proxy. Is there any chance you can open up the firewall a bit so that these requests can go through?

I'm not positive if this will work, but give it a shot. Please let us know if it works -- we should definitely document this!

Create a new text file org.eclipse.core.net.prefs in a Jazz server folder, depending on application server type:

For Apache Tomcat: JazzInstallDir/server/tomcat/work/Catalina/localhost/jazz/eclipse/workspace/.metadata/
.plugins/org.eclipse.core.runtime/.settings/

For IBM WebSphere Application Server: WASInstallDir/profiles/profile/temp/node/server1/jazz_war/jazz.war/eclipse/workspace/.metadata/
.plugins/org.eclipse.core.runtime/.settings/

Paste the following contents to org.eclipse.core.net.prefs and edit it according to you proxy configuration:

# General proxy settings

org.eclipse.core.net.hasMigrated=true

eclipse.preferences.version=1

proxiesEnabled=true

# HTTP proxy settings

# proxyData/HTTP/host=<proxy>

# proxyData/HTTP/port=<proxy>

# proxyData/HTTP/hasAuth=false

# HTTPS proxy settings

proxyData/HTTPS/host=<proxy>

proxyData/HTTPS/port=<proxy>

proxyData/HTTPS/hasAuth=false

# Hosts that will not use proxy 

# nonProxiedHosts=<hostname1>

nonProxiedHosts=127.0.0.1|localhost

Restart the Jazz Team Server.

No chance of opening up the firewall. Any chance a feature request could be opened to configure proxy settings?

As mentioned in my previous post, the "org.eclipse.core.net.prefs" settings do not appear to work.

Here's the work item tracking the proxy configuration feature:
