Hi,

When I am trying to post the message to the external URL using hpps socket connection, getting the following error message.

Exception in https : java.io.IOException: Unable to tunnel through
<proxy name>. Proxy returns "HTTP/1.0 403 Forbidden.

What could be the cause for the above error.

Note: This has been working for the other internal URL.

Hi,

When I was browisng the net for the 403 Forbidden error - Found that this could happen if the reote proxy is not configured properly with connect permission, then the above error is thrown.

I am not sure whether this could be the cause. If so what should I advice the customer, so that they can change their proxy settings.
 
I agree. Here's the link: http://aspose.com/file-tools
