hi,

bes 5.0.4, bb's with v.6, 7, 7.1
the bb browser is forced to use the company proxy. in mds a proxy string is configured. some browser requests get answer : unknown host..., this is logged in mdat.log with: invalid http proxy server: unknown host <proxystring>
other bb browser requests are ok. so it's a sporadic problem that mds does not know / find the proxy

any ideas to sort it out ?

scalable http = NO solved the problem

Go here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Research In Motion\BlackBerry Enterprise Server\MDS\Servers\instance\config

and enter the proxy string below into the rimpublic.property file:

application.handler.tcp.connection.proxy=proxy_name:8080

Obviously replace "proxy_name" with the name of your proxy and port number if different to the above

Restart MDS-CS
