I have downloaded trial version of Corona SDK and tried to build the sample App for Android platform.
While connecting to Server it shows
" [Build Error #100]
Could not connect to server. please check your internet connection".
I’m using a PC that requires proxy authentication, so is there a way to set my proxy details in Corona Simulator? [import]uid: 115002 topic_id: 23407 reply_id: 323407[/import]
Hello David,
Corona uses the proxy settings configured in Internet Explorer. So, check if your Internet Explorer web browser has access to our website, http://www.anscamobile.com .
If you think your Internet Explorer proxy settings are correct, then this might be a firewall issue. Try disabling your Windows Firewall (temporarily), exit the Corona Simulator application, and then start it back up and attempt to log in again. If it works, then you will need to add the Corona Simulator application to your firewall’s exception list. [import]uid: 32256 topic_id: 23407 reply_id: 93883[/import]
Hi Joshua,
Thanks for your reply…
My proxy server settings are correctly configured in IE 8 browser, Internet connection settings tab.
Problem here is, My proxy server requires user credential(different from windows login) to be entered before connecting to internet. This authentication happens for each and every applications the first time, when connection is opened.
Most web applications uses the default IE authentication prompt before making their internet connection.
But When Corona Simulator tries to connect to Internet for building app, there is no prompt that appears.
I think this causes the connection to Server fail.
Please suggest how to fix this issue… [import]uid: 115002 topic_id: 23407 reply_id: 94536[/import]
You will need to do a “run as” on the Corona Simulator application when starting it up. Otherwise, Windows will run the application using the user account that you’ve logged into Windows with.
Try doing the following:
The above might vary a bit between Windows XP and Windows 7/Vista, so you might have to do a quick Internet search on how to do this for your system. In general, this is how you would handle this for applications on Windows to get Internet access. [import]uid: 32256 topic_id: 23407 reply_id: 94866[/import]
Hi Joshua,
I am having the similar problem but the “run as” option is not working for me because the DOMAIN\user-id which can connect to Proxy is not getting recognized by the “run as” method. The “run as” options recognize “administrator” or “user-1” or “user-2” which are defined in Windows but it does not recognize the “domain\user-id” which my Proxy recognizes. So on my machine when I got to Internet Explorer it asks me for a user-id (for the first website only), I enter domain\user-id and it connects to Internet through the proxy. Is there a way Corona can pop-up the user-id\pass window just like Internet Explorer does so I can enter my domain\user-id. Or is there any other alternative solution? Please note the machine where we are running Corona is in a different network domain and the user-id that is being used to connect to proxy is in a different network domain. I know this is strange but it is a limitation we have to work with. Will really appreciate your response and your guidance. Thank you. [import]uid: 147617 topic_id: 23407 reply_id: 106771[/import]
It is possible for us to prompt the end-user to log in with a user name and password, but it would not be a quick/trivial task. We’re not getting a enough proxy setup tech-support issues to justify the time to do this yet. I’m just be honest with you. Although, if we ever do Corona app builds for Windows, then I think this change would be required.
In the meantime, you can work-around this by setting up a local proxy server on your machine that will log into the remote proxy server for you. There are many freeware proxy servers out on the Internet. [import]uid: 32256 topic_id: 23407 reply_id: 106872[/import]
