Hi,

It seems version 2 of this WebPart is still not able to work with proxy environments.  Is there a way to make this work ?

 

thanks

Actually we didn't change anything according to proxy settings in verstion 2.0. Can you send us screenshot for your proxy settings? Also any logs and screenshots with errors approciate.

Hi,

Due to confidentiality I cannot give our proxy settings.  What I can say though is that I can do the following from out SharePoint Box

1. I can browse http://weather.msn.com.

2. We have an existing WebPart that does weather and is getting feed from an external source as well.  This WebPart has a property where we can put our proxy server name.  Could it be that Virto WebPart only needs to know this name???

The error I am getting is

"Live Internet Connection is required for displaying clock and weather information. Please contact your system administrator."

Thanks.

1) Our proxy settings age getting directly from web.config (you should manually configure it):

<configuration>
<system.net>
<defaultProxy>
<proxy
usesystemdefault = "false"
proxyaddress="http://proxyserver"
bypassonlocal="true"
/>
</defaultProxy>
</system.net>
</configuration>

2) No
