XMLWordPrintable

    • x86
    • windows_2000

      When Authenticated proxy server is set in the IE browser settings , Install-From-The-WEB (IFTW) fails to locate the msi file and
      hence the installation fails.

      Tested_Java_Release : Mantis Build 09 , PIT Build 09 for 1.4.2 (mantis)
      Tested_Java_Release : Mantis beta
      Tested_Build : J2RE.exe
      Tested_Build_Location : /net/sqesvr/deployment3/mantis/iftwb09/setup.exe
      Test_Location : see steps to reproduce
      Tested_Machine_Name : sqe-jpi-04, jdsqe-lab2
      Testted O/S : Windows XP, Windows 2000 SP3, WIndows 98
      Tested_ Browsers : IE

      Steps to reproduce :
      ====================

      1. IE browser -> Tools -> Internet Settings-> LAN Settings -> Proxy Settings

         Specify , kittest.sfbay.sun.com port : 1025 as your proxy
         (This is an authenticated proxy server)

      2. Double click on the setup.exe ( IFTW ) bundle.

      3. Installation fails with Installer message (check package message)

      This should not be the behaviour as most of users might use authentocation proxy servers ,in this case the installation fails much before even user is prompted for password.
