Proxy Server Support #

The PRO Edition needs to communicate with the application portal to validate licenses. It often needs to do this from inside restricted networks. A proxy server can be configured in a number of different ways.

• Setting the HTTPS_PROXY (or HTTP_PROXY) environment variable before the application is started
• Setting the http_proxy property in the application setting file
• Using --http_proxy on the command-line

Proxy Use #

The proxy is used for the following actions

• Downloading application updates from https://dl.scalesql.com
• Calling the portal API at https://api.sqldsc.com for licensing
